Doing a restore will bring all the data back, data > 400GB which

Stubs are not restored (because the filesystem isn't HSM).

Well, the answer from IBM is: "HSM is not supported (yet) on IRIX 6.5.7"....
I guess it will take a long time before this bug is fixed, and not because
I'm a pessimist, but because the experience I have with these kind of
bugs in the past (on AIX and on IRIX).

Oh, btw, we have a "workaround": downgrade to IRIX 6.5.4, restore HSM-
filesystem and upgrade to IRIX 6.5.7. And then just pray that we don't
get a corrupted filesystem again...
And we were busy to split one HSM-filesystem into two HSM-filesystems,
which we also only can't do on IRIX 6.5.7...
