Hi

You can restore the file to client machine immediately even though file is
marked as damaged in primary storage pool provided correct copy of  file is
available in copystorage pool ( volume access should be readwrite or
readonly ).

Later on you can restore to primary storage pool with

>restore stg <primarystoragepool> copystgpool=<copystgpool>

This command will restore files marked as damaged and volumes marked as
destroyed.

hope this helps you

Regards

raghu.

Yes, I'm aware that I will have to do that to salvage
the volume - however for the short term, what steps do
I need to do to make this volume available in the
library so the user can restore the one file he is
interested in right now?
