Retrieving Archived Files
NetWorker retrieves archived files by copying files from an archive volume to
a local disk. Unless you are manager.sys, you need to own directories or files
to retrieve them.
You need to know the save set ID (identification) number and the name of the
archive pool. If you are not sure, ask your system administrator to check the
information with the NetWorker software on the server of which you are a
client.
The NSRRETRV command to retrieve an archive includes the following
parameters:
•-S, the parameter for the save set identification.
• ssid, specifies the save set identification for the save set to be retrieved.
• -s, the parameter for the server.
• The name of the server from which you are retrieving the files.
• (Optional) -b, the parameter for the volume pool.
• (Optional) The name of the volume pool, which must be enclosed in
quotes if the name is more than one word. Archive is the name of the
default volume pool.
• The original pathname of the directory to be retrieved.
From the CI, retrieve the archive as follows:
: RUN NSRRETRV;INFO=“-S ssid -s server directory_pathname “
For example:
: RUN NSRRETRV;INFO=“-S 14321 -s jupiter /projects/project1 “
From the POSIX shell, enter the following command to retrieve the archive:
$ NSRRETRV -S ssid -s server directory_pathname
