Of course it only helps if you have a clue about the absolute directory name.
If you are used to something you will use it forever. So far i never used the
-I option.
Thanks, bingo. I guess I'm just obtuse here, but I would do this. Let's
say my non-browsable save set is /data/projects/felix, and I want to
recover the following paths under felix:
data1/file1.txt
data1/file2.txt
data3/file3.txt
I would run the recover as: recover -s server -d relocation_dir -S
ssid/cloneid /data/projects/felix/data1/file1.txt
/data/projects/felix/data1/file2.txt
/data/projects/felix/data1/file3.txt
In this case, I'm confident that the desired (fully qualified) paths are
specified correctly. Clearly, I'm performing a partial recovery, but NW
is still going to read through all of the save set, even after it's
finished recovering the files, unless I cancel the recovery, which I
would do if I'm around at the time. It would be a lot easier if NW
supported a '-I' option for this type of recovery as it would preclude
me from having to pass in all the paths on the command (particularly in
cases where there's a lot more than, say, three of them), but as Tom
pointed out in his subsequent reply, I could use 'cat' to pass the list
to the command.
But what is the '-a' option buying me if I used it here? I don't see how
it factors in or applies?
Thanks.
