How do I restore specific files from a mksysb tape? From: Marc Pawliger (marc@sti.com)
To recover specific files from a backup made with mksysb, try
$ tctl fsf 3
$ tar xvf /dev/rmt0.1 ./your/file/name
From: Matt Willman (Willman.matt@cnf.com)
The procedure changed with AIX 4, which uses backup instead of tar to
write the tape. For AIX 4 the procedure is as follows:
$ tctl fsf 3
$ restore -xvf /dev/rmt0.1 ./your/file/name
