Commands RECALL/=RECALL thru RUN
before running RESTORE:
FILE SOURCE;DEV=TAPE
The restorefile can now reference a remote device. For example,
FILE REMOTE;DEV=REMSYS#TAPE
RESTORE *REMOTE;@;SHOW
NM RESTORE will restore all files from the specified remote device.
Although the initial tape mount request will appear on the remote console,
all of RESTORE's console messages will be displayed on the local console.
Currently, labeled tapes and Magneto-optical devices cannot be used for
remote backup.
A message is displayed on the system console requesting the operator to
mount the tape identified by the
restorefile parameter and to allocate
the device.
If
restorefile is not supplied and the RESTORESET option is not used,
then RESTORE creates a default file name. The default file name is the
user's logon username. No file equation is used.
Sequential and parallel devices are specified with the RESTORESET option.
Similarly, magneto-optical devices are specified using the MOSET option.
You should not specify
restorefile when using RESTORESET or MOSET.
A disk file can also be specified with a file equation for
restorefile . An
example of such a file equation would be:
:FILE MYDISC=DISCBACK.DAILY.BACKUP;DEV=DISC
Note that DEV=DISC must be specified for RESTORE to recover files from
disk backups. All other information in the file equation will be ignored by
RESTORE.
NOTE TurboSTORE/iX 7x24 True-Online Backup must be used to create disk
backups.
filesetlist Specifies the set of files to be restored. The default depends on the user's
capability, as shown below:
Default Capability
@ None
@.@ Account manager (AM)
@.@.@ and/or system supervisor (OP)
The
filesetlist parameter has the form shown below:
filesetitem [, filesetitem [...]]
where filesetitem can be ^ indirectfile or fileset .
indirectfile A file name that backreferences a disk file. The syntax is
^
indirectfile or ! indirectfile
