RE: Restoring a single IFS Folder from Tape(s)

Nice idea, unfortunately from the DSPTAP output, there is one Volume ID only
- TAP001. I'm going to try it anyway, though I'm pretty sure it'll say
"Volume not found" or something similar.

Just a guess:

RST ... VOL(MTH9901)

I have 4 tapes, created with the SAV command, that contain a series of IFS
Directories (one per month), each containing hundreds/thousands of Image

the
beginning of the first tape (MTH9901). But when I run the RST command, it
successfully restores the directory, restores all its documents, but then
continues reading through the tape. Worse still, when it reads to the end
of the first tape, it asks for the next tape. Ughhh ...

These directories are stored on the 4 tapes in order - I spent 3 days of
computer time displaying all 4 tapes to print so I'd know what I
have. How
can I make the RST command stop at the end of the first directory? (FYI,
current RST command shown below)

RST DEV('/QSYS.LIB/TAP02.DEVD') +
OBJ(('/LANDRIVE/MTH9901/*' *INCLUDE *SAME)) +
CRTPRNDIR(*YES) ALWOBJDIF(*ALL)
