RECOVER DISKFILE Command
When only \node is given, all file catalogs on the nodes of the system search list
are searched.
When only an asterisk is given, all file catalogs on the current default node are
searched.
This parameter is required if no value is available from the MEDIADEFS defaults or
previously set as a MEDIACOM session default (see the ENV Command on
page 2-89).
GEN { absolute | relative }
specifies which generation of tape-file-id to use to recover the disk file:
absolute
is a positive number in the range 1 through 32767.
relative
is a negative number in the range -1 through -32768. The default is -1.
You cannot use the TIME option with GEN.
OUT out-file
specifies where the results of the RESTORE command are displayed or written.
You can name a disk file or a device, such as a printer or terminal. If not given, the
information is sent to your current default output file (usually your home terminal).
For an example of a RESTORE listing, see the Guardian Disk and Tape Utilities
Reference Manual.
OUTCOMMAND outcommand-file
specifies where the outcommand file, created for use by the Backup and Restore
2.0 RESTORE command, is saved.
The OUTCOMMAND file can be used as an OBEY file from TACL to perform the
same Backup and Restore 2.0 RESTORE operation again, or you can edit the file
if you wish to change the way that the file is restored. For example, suppose that
you execute the command:
MC>recover diskfile oss /file1, tapefile oss1, filecat mnl,
listall on, tapedisposition bot, outcommand rdout
The resulting outcommand-file might be:
\namath.$dev.mnlbrcwk 15:53:39 65> fup copy rdout,,recout 239
ADD DEFINE =BR2RECOVER,CLASS TAPECATALOG,USE IN,LABELS
BACKUP,FILEID OSS1,FILECAT \NAMATH.MNL,GEN 1,VOLUME 000189
BRCOM RESTORE =BR2RECOVER,OSS /file1,listall
on,tapedisposition bot;exit;
You could edit this file to specify different options and then OBEY it from TACL.
