Restore from Dump on tape

[Brad Crotchett]

Hey all,

Unfortunately I am having to restore a production server.  I have a recent
backup that was a dump level 0 to a tape drive.  We have reinstalled redhat
7.2 that was on there before the crash.  Can I just move to / and issue
'restore -if /dev/nst0 ???

What about open files?  Can I just overwrite everything, reboot and the
server should be restored?

It's going to be a long night...thanks for the help.

Brad
