Simon,
I was about to say no way, but I poked around a little, and there is indeed
a way to do it. (I really didn't think there was!). You have to use the
-filelist option on the restore comand. For example, I did this:
wau026:/home/root> dsmc res -filelist=/home/root/reslist
wau026:/home/root> dsmc res -filelist=/home/root/reslist

where /home/root/reslist is a file I created and contains this:
/home/root/autosum
/apps/adsm.sh
On my system, /home/root and /apps are two different unix filesystems. As
you can see, it worked. The bad news is, you can't put wildcards inside
the filelist... all files must be fully qualified. And TSM restores them
in the order specified, so some tape juggling may result.
Now, if we could only find a way to get TSM to give us a list of files
sorted in the order they are stored on tape, we could implement that
"optimized node restore" command that I wished for!

AM Restoring multiple filesets from
command line.
Please respond
to "ADSM: Dist
Stor Manager"
Hi All,
Does anyone know if it is possible to specify multiple filesystems for
restore using a single command line instruction. It can be done from the
GUI very easily but we can't figure how it can be done from the command
line
(or even if it can be done!).
TSM Server 4.1.3 Clients 4.1.2 all running on AIX 4.3.3
Thanks
Simon Pope
