Begginer Tape Drvie Question

[montejr]

Hi to all,
I work on a PC but have been given the task of getting some data of a tape drive on a Sun System. My unix experience is very, very limited. What is the syntax to be able to read the files on the tape drive or to transfer them to the Sun station?

thanks and cheers,
Michael

How did you backup your data to the tape drive ?
If you used tar command. You can use tar -xvf to extract your data from tape drive.
Maybe can help you.
