Just put the tape you want to restore from in the standalone drive. I have a sdlt standalone on my master as well as a library. And when I need to do a restore I just put it in the standalone drive.

The current setup of the Netbackup is 1 unit of Server running Solaris 8 configured as Netbackup Master/Media Server. 1 unit of L180 tape library with 4 SDLT320 tape drives and 1 unit of SDLT320 standalone tape drive is connected to the server. May I know how to restore using the SDLT320 standalone tape drive instead of using the L180 tape library? Note: Backup of the client was to the L180 tape library SDLT320 tape drive and the tape needed for the restoration have been identified and ejected from the L180 tape library. -- Regards, Calvin Chen W.
