ANSWER:
from Brian Sheehan sheehan_at_scripps.edu:
use sh instead of ksh or csh to perform the restore:
% sh
$ mt -f /dev/rmt0h rewind
$ cpio -ivmudc -C 32768 -I /dev/rmt0h /res1/cphsu/mlk183*
$ exit
%
This worked. No other replies were received. Thanks Brian.
ORIGINAL QUESTION:
I am using DU 3.2C on a DEC Alpha 3000 model 400 and as root ksh created a
cpio save set on tape using the following commands:
mt -f /dev/rmt0h rewind
ulimit -f unlimited
umask 027
find / -print | cpio -oc -C 32768 -O /dev/rmt0h
mt -f /dev/rmt0h rewind
I am able to list the tape as root ksh using the following commands:
mt -f /dev/rmt0h rewind
cpio -itvc -C 32768 -I /dev/rmt0h >twr.scr 2>&1
I can search twr.scr and find the 60+ files I am trying to restore.
As root ksh, when I use either of the following commands, they restore only
the directory and none of the files:
mt -f /dev/rmt0h rewind
cpio -ivmudc -C 32768 -I /dev/rmt0h /res1/cphsu/mlk183\*
mt -f /dev/rmt0h rewind
cpio -ivmudc -C 32768 -I /dev/rmt0h "/res1/cphsu/mlk183*"
