I try it already, but restore command don't run on tar backup. I received an error message on this way. the backup must be done using backup command. TurtleOp

I will try the command immediately but yes I am sure at 100% at least according the inventory. I have also made a cupple of others try with different files :( I am fighting since 3 days now ... sic! TurtleOp

My backed up files are using relative path as well - I've just now double check it - But I will make a test anyway. Thank you TurtleOp,

Relative paths, for sure, starting with the "."

I think we have a small misunderstanding. My bad probably. In fact, because I did'nt succeed to restore my backup, I made an inventory, that was successfull, using the command: tar -tvf /dev/rmt1 TurtleOp

Pitty, I was hoping that was the problem... Thank you for useful links, Regards, TurtleOp

Sounds good and easy ;) I will try! Thank you, TurtleOp
