DESCRIPTION
frecover reads media written by the fbackup
command. Its actions are controlled by the selected
function
-r, -R, -x, -V
,or-I.
The function performed by
frecover is specified by one of the following options:
-r The backup media is read and the contents are loaded into the directories from which they
were backed up. This option should only be used to recover a complete backup onto a clear
directory or to recover an incremental backup after a full level-zero recovery (see
fbackup(1M)). This is the default behavior.
-x The files identified by the -i, -e, and -g options (see below) are extracted or not extracted
from the backup media. If a file to be extracted matches a directory whose contents have
been written to the backup media, and the -h option is not specified, the directory is recur-
sively extracted. The owner, modification time, and access control list (including optional
entries, unless the -A option is specified) are recovered. If no file argument is given (includ-
ing an empty graph file), all files on the backup media are extracted, unless the
-h option is
specified.
-I path The index on the current volume is extracted from the backup media and is written to path.
-V path The volume header on the current volume is extracted from the backup media and is written
to path. The following fields from the header are extracted in the format label:value with
one pair per line.
Magic Field On valid fbackup media, it contains the value
FBACKUP_LABEL. On pre-10.20 fbackup media, it con-
tains FBACKUP LABEL.

This field contains the result of uname -m.
System Identification
This field contains the result of uname -s.
Release Identification
This field contains the result of uname -r.

User Identification This field contains the result of cuserid(3S).
Record Size This field contains the maximum length in bytes of a data
record.
Time This field contains the time fbackup was started.
Media Use This field contains the number of times the media has been
used for backup.
Volume Number This field contains a # character followed by 3 digits, and
identifies the current volume in the backup.
Checkpoint Frequency This field contains the number of data records between check-
points.
