Hello,

Someone wants to restore only the files which have changed after the latest
backup.
The opposite of the -ifnewer option on the restore command, in other words
doing an "incremental restore".

There are possible ways of doing this, like for instance for a unix client:

     touch -t some_time_stamp some_ref_file
     find -newer some_ref_file > files_to_restore
     for each if the files in files_to_restore dsmc restore .....

Are there any other possibilities, preferrably using standard TSM
mechanisms ?
