You need to perform the following steps to recover on linux. Also use "help" in
recover console.
[root@clienthost /]# recover -t 12/28/2008 /var/adm
This places you in a shell like recovery console environment where you can
browse and recover files/directories.
Example:
[root@clienthost /]# recover -t 12/28/2008 /var/adm
recover: Current working directory is /var/adm/
recover>
Note: If you need to restore the files in a non-default directory (different
distination), use the option -d as shown in the example
Example:
[root@clienthost /]# recover -d /tmp -t 12/28/2008 /var/adm
recover: Current working directory is /var/adm/
recover>
To list files/directories, execute the subcommand 'ls' or 'll' in recovery
console
Note: The subcommand 'll' is used for long listing similar to unix command 'ls
-l'
Example:
[root@clienthost /]# recover -t 12/28/2008 /var/adm
recover: Current working directory is /var/adm/
recover> ll

Before restore the file(s)/directories, need to mark the file(s)/directories
Example:
recover> add -q messages messages.0 sulog
3 file(s) marked for recovery
Execute the subcommand 'list' to list the marked file(s)/directories
recover> list
/var/adm/messages @ Mon Dec 28 05:55:58 CST 2008
/var/adm/messages.0 @ Mon Dec 28 05:55:58 CST 2008
/var/adm/sulog @ Mon Dec 28 05:55:58 CST 2008
Execute the subcommand 'recover' in recovery console to recover the marked
file(s)/directories
Example:
recover> recover
Recovering 2 files within /var/adm/ into /tmp
Volumes needed (all near-line):
TSE001 at tapelib
Total estimated disk space needed for recover is 112 KB.
Requesting 3 file(s), this may take a while...
./messages
./messages.0
./sulog
Received 3 file(s) from NSR server 'backup_server'
Recover completion time: Tue Dec 30 14:39:15 2008
recover> quit
[root@clienthost /]#
Below is an example of total sequence of how a file(s) restore is performed
[root@clienthost /]# recover -d /tmp -t 12/28/2008 /var/adm
recover: Current working directory is /var/adm/
recover> ll
