instances is a directory. To restore the contents of that directory (files
in that dir, child subdirectories and their files), you need to append the
'/' to the end of the directory name:

restore /var/opt/SUNWdsee/instances/ -subdir=yes -pitdate=... -pittime=...

(I'll let you fill in the pitdate and pittime parms)

If you don't want subdirectories of ../instances, then use -subdir=no
(which is the default, unless you have SUBDIR YES in your options file or
client option set).

Best regards,

Andy

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
"Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.

Micheal, Remco Thanks for your reponses!

Remco,  Unfortunatley I can't use the Gui to do these restore's  because
there on another network and we have to connect to them through a
windows box with putty on it. Otherwise the GUI is my first option.

I did the following query commands and the earliest date is 08/17/08.
Looks like that is the earliest date I can find.

I did the following why does the file size say 512 but it say's 0 bytes
transferred?

tsm> restore -pitdate=08/17/2007 /var/opt/SUNWdsee/instances*
