DESCRIPTION
bprestore
lets users restore a backed up or archived file or list of files. You
can also name directories to restore. If you include a directory name,
bprestore
restores all files and subdirectories of that directory.
By default, you are returned to the system prompt after
bprestore
is
successfully submitted. The command works in the background and does not
return completion status directly to you. The
-w
option lets you change this
behavior so
bprestore
works in the foreground and returns completion
status after a specified time period.
The
bprestore
command restores the file from the most recent backups
within the time period you specify.
bprestore
overwrites any file of the same
name that already exists on the local client disk, unless you include the
-K
option. It is also possible to restore files that were backed up or archived on
another client (
-C
option). You must be validated by the NetBackup
administrator to restore from other clients.
Use the
bplist
command to display information on the files and directories
that were backed up or archived.
bprestore
writes informative and error messages to a progress-log file if you
create the file prior to the execution of the
bprestore
command and then
specify the file with the -L progress_log option. If bprestore cannot restore
the requested files or directories, you can use the progress log to find the
reason for the failure.
