page from the POSIX prompt only:

$ man timezone

Turning Off Parallel Backups

If you turned on parallelism, then you can turn it off with the

NSR_MPE_RECOV_PARALLELISM_OFF system variable.

To turn parallelism off, enter the following command during a CI session:

: SETVAR NSR_MPE_RECOV_PARALLELISM_OFF ""

To turn parallelism off from a POSIX prompt, enter the following command:

$ export NSR_MPE_RECOV_PARALLELISM_OFF=""

Changing the Name of the Creator/Owner of Files

To change the name of the creator/owner of files to a new name, use the

NSR_MPE_RECOVER_CREATOR system variable.

Note that only an account manager (AM) has the capability to create a group and

change the creator under the logged-on account.

To change the name of the creator, enter the following system variable during the

current CI session:

: SETVAR NSR_MPE_RECOV_CREATOR "

You can also set this system variable from the POSIX shell:

$ export NSR_MPE_RECOV_CREATOR="

Relocating Files from One Group or Account to Another

You can relocate files from one group or account to another with the

NSR_MPE_RECOV_GROUP and NSR_MPE_RECOV_ACCOUNT system variables.

The following rules apply to these system variables:

• You must be a system manager (SM) or a system supervisor (OP) to create an

account, group, creator, and path. Only an account manager (AM) has the

capability to create a group and change the creator under the logged-on account.

• You can only relocate files to an existing group or account. If the group or account

does not exist, the NSRRECOV program will create an hierarchical file system

(HFS) pathname and will preserve the original creator. You can use the

NSR_MPE_RECOV_CREATOR system variable to change the creator. See

“Changing the Name of the Creator/Owner of Files” on page 25.

• If you set the NSR_MPE_RECOV_GROUP or the NSR_MPE_RECOV_ACCOUNT

system variable, the file will be automatically relocated to that group or account.

The creator name will automatically reflect the new group or account.

• If you set the NSR_MPE_RECOV_ACCOUNT system variable and then use the

NetWorker NSRRECOV program relocate command to relocate files, the relocate

command overrides the GROUP or ACCOUNT system variables. See “Recovering

and Relocating Files” on page 39.
