You don't restore directly from tape.

NBU indexes backups by client name and date, not by Media-id.

You use the BAR (Backup Archive and Restore) GUI to search for backups for a particular client and policy type.

You will be presented with Explorer type of view where you can drill down to folders and files backed op on a certain date.

Once you have selected the files/folders you want to restore and click on 'Start restore', NBU will look in the catalogs to see which tape contains this particular backup image, mount the tape and start the restore.

Dear,

 

I didn't get your question. I tried to figure out by reading multiple time but no luck.

Could you please simplify your query?

 

Regards,
