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 recursively
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 (including 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 (HP-UX 11i Version 3 and beyond). Previous
values of this field were FBACKUP_LABEL
(between HP-UX
10.20 and HP-UX 11i Version 2 inclusive) and
FBACKUP
LABEL
(before HP-UX 10.20).

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