 ENV:    3.2.5, R24

 CUSTOMER REP:    June Sakuda

 PROBLEM:    Customer makes nightly tar backups using the following
command:
 \# tar -cvf /dev/rmt0 ./hmg/com.det
 This backs up the data in that directory to tape.  She wants to
restore the data to a new filesystem, /hmg2 instead of to /hmg.

 ACTION TAKEN:    I explained that she could restore it to /hmg2 by
using the pax command with the -s (susbtitute) flag:
 \# pax -rvf /dev/rmt0 -s":./hmg:./hmg2:p"

 ACTION PLAN:    CWCA.

 TEST CASE:    N/A.

Closing with Customer Approval
