Listing BACKUP saveset names on tape?

» close window

The Question is:

 
I need to find some files that may or may not exist on some tk50 tapes.  In
 some cases, the tapes are not well marked and I am not sure what saveset(s) to
 list.  I seem to remember that there was a way of determining what savesets
 exist on a tape by MOUNT
/FOR... and then somehow getting the saveset names. DIR command does not yeild
 this information.  What am I forgetting?

The Answer is :

 
  One approach:
  $ MOUNT/FOREIGN mmcu:
  $ BACKUP/LIST mmcu:/SAVE
  $ BACKUP/LIST mmcu:/SAVE
  ...
 
  But easiest:
 
  $ MOUNT/OVERRIDE=ID mmcu:
  $ DIRECTORY mmcu:[000000]
