A problem about frecover

[Kevin.Wang]

I backup /u02 as follows,
#fbackup -f /dev/rmt/0m -0vi /u02

after it completed, i want to recovery it in another directory /u02bak, how should I do?

Thank you in advance. by the way, where can I see the fbackup logs?

-F option of frecover can help in restoring data in a new directory. -F recovers files, but not directories.

-V option of fbackup can help in logging volume header information after a successful backup.

Check man pages.

hi,

- cd /tmp
- link -s /u02bak /tmp/u02
- frecover -xX -f /dev/rmt/0m

"-X" = recover in current directory
create a symbolic link for the original directory in your working directory, and restore with "-X", that's all

regards,
Thierry.

Hi,

see the following syntax
it may help

#cd /u02bak

#frecover -xvf /dev/rmt/0m -I u02/
