what tapes do I need for restore?

Hello,

some of our backups are saved to tapes and then sent over to a remote secure site for safe keeping.
I tried today to restore the netbackup version file before I install a client software and preform a full system restore (as suggested in this article: https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.TECH56473)

However, after initiating the restore job, I received a message that a certain tape is required for the restore. this tape is currently at the remote site.

before requesting for the tape to be sent back to me, is it possible to list all the tapes that are required for the complete restore (without initiating a restore job), so I won't end up making multiple delivery requests?

Hi,

On the BAR gui, there is an option "PREVIEW" to let you see which all media's would be required to complete the restore.
