• -iN, which turns overwrite prompt off; consistently does not overwrite
existing files, directories, or MPE volume set directory information files;
and turns parallelism on.
• -a, the automatic parameter for noninteractive recoveries.
• The file path of the file, directory, or MPE volume set that you want to
recover.
Entering the client parameter and client name is optional; for example, if
you are recovering files from the client where the files were originally
backed up, then you do not have to enter the client name.
Important: The naming convention for recovering MPE volume sets differs
from the naming convention for saving MPE volume sets. See “Naming
Conventions for Recovering MPE Volume Sets” (on page 48).
Noninteractive Recovery
With noninteractive recoveries you do not browse the save sets or mark the
files for recovery. You just enter the NSRRECOV command and the
parameters for the file path of the file, directory, or MPE volume set that you
want to recover. Perform noninteractive recoveries when you want to recover
files, directories, or MPE volume sets quickly.
To perform a noninteractive recovery of the directory information file, enter
the NSRRECOV command and all the parameters from the CI as in the
following example:
: RUN NSRRECOV;INFO="-s
jupiter
-iN -a
/projects/project1/reports/rep1
"
Interactive Browse Recovery
If you want to browse save sets and recover specific files, groups of files,
directories, or MPE volume sets, then start the NSRRECOV program and
enter only the server and client parameters. Note that you can also turn the
overwrite prompt off and turn parallelism on during interactive browse
recoveries.
From the CI, enter the following command to start the NSRRECOV program:
: RUN NSRRECOV;INFO="-s
server
-c
client
-iN"
For example:
: RUN NSRRECOV;INFO="-s
jupiter
