    Hi friends,

    I took backup using tar

    tar cvf /dev/rmt/0m /oracle

    Now I have new directory /oraclenew . And I want to restore my backup into
    /oraclenew. I have run

    tar xvf /dev/rmt/0m /oraclenew , But it is not working. It is not doing
    anything , not restoring.

    If I do "tar xvf /dev/rmt/0m /oracle , than it's start restoring backup
    but in to /oracle.

    How can I restore backup into other directory ?

    Thanks,
    Pankaj
