Hi, How can I check  if my backups are good (not corrupted) without restoring them. Thanks Consty

You can use auto media verify , this attribute can be enabled in pool, another way is to use Networker verify feature in Networker user

In n/w user (windows) you can verify with 'auto media verify' enabled so that the data is periodically checked while backing up. The only way to verify an entire saveset is to clone or use recover -S (ssid) -n -u. Please keep in mind tape degradation.  A tape good now does not mean it will age well or was kept within environmental specification.  But that is media issues.
