Hi,

I have a Win2003 Small Business Server, and want to restore a set of 2 tapes
with only the firts tape (the 2nd is missing).

When I try to catalog the 1st tape, at the end appears a message telling me
than insert the next tape. After I press "cancel" no catalog (partially) was
restore.

Does any one knows how to restore a partially catalog to recover some
information from the tape?

I think it could be possible becase in NT4, ntbackup has /missingtape switch
that makes to read the catalog from the available tapes from the set. In
Win2K Srv that switch does not exist, but works as is. (Document ID : 244805:

But I did not found an option in Win SBS 2003.
