Hello, I wanted to see if anyone could help me find the best way to perform a massive NDMP restore. We just got a request to restore data from an NDMP node directory that the business side thought was being archived but not deleted off the system. Turns out the data in the directories was being purged after 15 days, so now I need to go back from mid-January 2016 to January 2015. At the least, I would like to get back data from the last quarter of 2015.
This FS has a daily INCR backup schedule along with a quarterly FULL backup schedule which last ran in November.
A little info...
TSM V7.1.4.0
AIX 7100-03-04-1441
Is it possible to perform an "automated" NDMP restore over multiple dates ? We do use TOC for the NDMP backups.
Tape library has over 5000 tapes in it but I know we will have to load a lot of tapes as the job runs...can I find out which tapes will be needed before running the restore and get them back in there first ?
So far, I haven't found anything that would help me avoid doing an NDMP restore from each day from January 2016 and back. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you
