Listing the Contents on Tape Without Restoring Data
Listing the Contents Using the BRIC Tape File
To list the contents on tape without restoring any data:
1. Mount the tape containing the BRIC file. If there is only one tape, mount that tape.
If the backup job spans multiple tapes, mount the last tape.
2. Check for mount requests in the EMS event log.
3. Use the RESTORE command with either the LISTONLY ON or LISTONLY DETAIL
job option. Specify OSS / or MX CAT * to list all the OSS or SQL/MX objects on
tape. If you specify a subset of the object, only those objects are included on the
list. The objects are not restored.

Use the RESTORE command with the LISTONLY ON option. For example:
BR> RESTORE $TAPE, OSS /, LISTONLY ON ;
For more information, see LISTONLY Job Option on page 7-43. For the display
from this command, see Example 7-1 on page 7-13.
To specify a list of all the objects on tape, you can specify (mx cat *) and
oss /:
BR> RESTORE $a3, mx cat *, oss /, LISTONLY ON,
BR+> TAPEDISPOSITION BOT;

Use the RESTORE command with the LISTONLY DETAIL option. For
example:
BR> RESTORE $TAPE, OSS /, LISTONLY DETAIL ;
For the display from this command, see Example 7-2 on page 7-15.
