Recovering a File

If more than one version of a backed-up file exists, NetWorker automatically

recovers the file with the most recent backup date. This section describes how

to recover a file or files with the most recent backup date.

This section assumes that you have started the NSRRECOV program.

To recover files with the latest backup date, follow these steps:

1. Change to the save set where the ﬁle resides, for example:

recover> cd

reports

2. (Optional) List the ﬁles in the current save set as follows:

recover> ls

The following message is displayed:

rep1 rep2 rep3 rep4 rep5

3. Mark the ﬁle that you want to recover as follows:

recover> add

rep1

The following message is displayed:

1 file(s) marked for recovery

To add other ﬁles to the recovery list, repeat the add command.

4. (Optional) Verify the marked ﬁles in the recover list as follows:

recover> list

/projects/project1/reports/rep1 @ Wed Dec 4 10:36:07 1996

1 file(s) marked for recovery

5. Start the recovery process as follows:

recover> recover

NetWorker displays the following message:
