I backed-up an entire file system (/u01) using
fbackup with this syntax.
fbackup -0 -g /tmp/graph.u01 -v -f /tmp/fbackup.u01.save
/tmp/graph.u01 contains this: i /u01
What would be the syntax to restore the entire
file system (/u01) using frecover?
10 Points to any good answer.
TIA, Gino

SolutionTo list the contents of the tape
frecover -I /tmp/index -f /dev/rmt/0m
To recover the entire tape
frecover -r -f /dev/rmt/0m
This will completely restore the tape. So, if you have any other files backed up other than /u01, they will also be restored.
To selectively restore the files, do
frecover -x -i /u01/subdirectory -f /dev/rmt/0m
man frecover.

Re: how to recover from fbackup backup?
Do I need to remove all of the files in the
file system first before I restore them?

Re: how to recover from fbackup backup?
frecover does a kind of version checking. Means if the file that is there is newer than that in the backup, it will not overwrite. So, if you want an absolute recovery, either move the files under /u01 to another filesystem or remove them completely. Else use '-o' option with frecover. But I prefer emptying the destination directory so that I will be sure of recovery.
