Finishing the Process

6.2 Restoring User Files

To restore your user ﬁles, perform either of these processes:

• If you ran BULDACCT.PUB.SYS and did NOT use the STORE command DIRECTORY option

as part of your backup, proceed to “Restore with BULDACCT ﬁles.”

• If you ONLY did the STORE command with the DIRECTORY option, proceed to “Restore

without BULDACCT ﬁles.”

DO NOT perform both processes.

Restore with BULDACCT Files

If you ran BULDACCT.PUB.SYS before your backup, rebuild the account structure and

restore the user ﬁles from your backup tapes.

To restore user ﬁles and rebuild the directory structure:

1. Restore BULDJOB1 from the backup tape and stream the job.

:FILE T;DEV=TAPE

:RESTORE *T;BULDJOB1.PUB.SYS

:STREAM BULDJOB1.PUB.SYS

This job rebuilds the entire account structure.

2. Mount the backup tapes and restore them.

:FILE T;DEV=TAPE

:RESTORE *T;@.@.@;OLDDATE;KEEP;SHOW

3. If the COMMAND.PUB.SYS now on the system is incorrect, stream BULDJOB2 to rebuild it.

First purge the incorrect UDC ﬁle.

:PURGE COMMAND.PUB.SYS

:STREAM BULDJOB2.PUB.SYS

This job resets all system, account, and user UDCs that were previously on the system.

4. Purge both BULDJOB1 and BULDJOB2 when they have successfully completed to maintain

the security of your system. These ﬁles contain passwords for all users, groups, and

accounts on the system.

5. Proceed to the next section on your checklist.

Restore without BULDACCT Files

BULDACCT If you did not run the program, restore the backup ﬁles and restart the system.

To restore user ﬁles and create the directory structure:

1. Mount the backup tapes and restore them:

:FILE T;DEV=TAPE

:RESTORE *T;@.@.@;OLDDATE;KEEP;SHOW;DIRECTORY

• Restoring User Files completed. Go to the next section on your checklist.
