Script to restore single file from File to Tape Backup

Post by bhyujn »

Background:
I use File to Tape Backup for backing up single folder.
This folder contains files that are in format abc_14_07_2020.txt. Everyday 4000 file are created, writed to tape and deleted.
If my tapelibary will be full on data then there will be 840 000 files.

Problem:
It painful to use GUI to find correct file from 840k and restore it.

Maybe someone can share script with 3 inputs (VBRTapeJob name, file name, restore directory)

Tnx.

Hello,
I don't have a "ready to use" script, but I'm interested what part of is painful to do in the GUI.

There is a search field that should find exactly the one file you need.
