Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: TAR and Linux info
Thanks for the response. I did locate the "mt" command and tried to
advance to tape to the 5 file count and I received Input/Output errors
anf the operation stopped. I guess the tape is shot and I will have to
recreate the datafile and tablespace.
Thanks to all.

Silly me! Of course "mt" would be available somewhere. Just because
I
don't have it at the moment doesn't mean it isn't available! Thanks
Christolph!
Hallelujah open source!
