>Description:

When verifying a multi-tape dump using restore -N, files at the start of
each new tape are incorrectly listed as missing.  This is due to a bug
in getvol().  At the end of the routine it returns if curfile.action is
USING.  Otherwise, it acts as though the tape is the start of a dump.
When -N is set, curfile.action is always SKIP.  I believe that the test
should return and not reinitialize when curfile.action is either USING
or SKIP.

>How-To-Repeat:

Make a multi-tape or multi-file dump set and try "restore -N -r".  Note the
reported failure at the start of each tape other than the first.

>Fix:

Patch /usr/src/sbin/restore/tape.c:

*** tape.c	Tue May  8 20:23:55 2001
--- tape.c.~1~	Mon Apr 23 12:26:52 2001
***************
*** 439,445 ****
   				readtape(buf);
   		}
   	}
! 	if (curfile.action == USING || curfile.action == SKIP) {
  		if (volno == 1)
  			panic("active file into volume 1\n");
  		return;
--- 439,445 ----
   				readtape(buf);
   		}
   	}
! 	if (curfile.action == USING) {
  		if (volno == 1)
  			panic("active file into volume 1\n");
  		return;
