I've gone thru a couple of Netware 3.1x full server restores.  Sequence of
events is as follows

1) Restore the bindery FIRST --   LOAD DSMC RESTORE BINDERY
2) Restore each Netware volume on the server  --
     LOAD DSMC RESTORE SYS:* -subdir=yes -volinfo -tapeprompt=no
 -replace=???
    The -volinfo parameter is required to restore trustee information stored
in the root
     directory.  -replace can either be yes, no, or all.   Only problem I've
run into with this is
     with -replace=all or -replace=yes you'll get some open files
(DSCAMENG.TXT for one)
    and prompts to the effect that the file is open and can't be
overwritten.  You can get
    around this by either specifying -replace=no or, for the server restore
process, install ADSM
    in another directory.

Last Friday I attempted to restore a Novell server using the ADSM client
software (verion 1.2.8). Everything seemed to work fine except the bindery
files were not restored during the full restore of the server. Is there
something special that needs to be done to restore the bindery files?

This restore involved the restore of an entire volume on a server. It was
being done as a test only to see what problems we might run into. Any
insight
from your experiences would be appreciated.

Peter.
