the files are stored in backup file format (.bff), so you can restore to
a jfs file system ok... (*depending on size of the files that is* and
whether your jfs filesystem is large file enabled etc...*)

mt -f /dev/rmt# rewind
restore -s4 -xqvdf /dev/rmt#.1 ./directory/filename

or

restore -s4 -xqvdf /dev/rmt#.1 ./directory

Mark

Yeah, use Storix instead of mksysb. It will let you change the
filesystem type and just about anything else. Download a copy from
http://www.storix.com.

I have had a lot of success with sysback as opposed to mksysb....sysback has
a lot more flexibility......

And it is IBM....go big blue....

Dapper....

none of us would be working if it weren't for IBM....and the fall of DEC of
course....

Yea, and Storix was written by the same person that wrote Sysback, but without
IBM process constraints. Freedom can be amazing.
