In response to Jane Vaughn's follow-up question:

Jane,

Restore works as follows:

   If the directory exists, it is not restored - ADSM uses the
      existing directory.

   If the directory does not exist:
      For the command line client: the directory is restored with
                      backed up attributes if subdir=yes.
      For the GUI:
           Restore by Subdirectory Branch: the directory is created
                 and restored with backed up attributes.
           Restore by File Specification/Restore by Tree: the
                 directory is created with default directory attributes.


For Files:

Files are restored with their backed up permissions when
replace=yes, all.
If replace=no, ADSM does not restore the existing files.
up, ADSM does not restore the file.

Option Verbose shows name and size information for
files backed up and restored, not permission information.


Hope this helps,
