JR 

Are you using any options or features of the dsmc command  that are not 
available with the dsm gui command. 

If I remember correctly the gui will allow multiple file systems to be selected 
and will optimize the tape mounts.

I wonder if one starts multiple dsmc restores at the same time will the system 
optimize the tape mounts?

Jim,

The problem I am running into is that by using multiple dsmc commands, I
have to load/reload tapes for every file system I am restoring since I
only have a single tape drive and my data is on 2 tapes.

Any ideas?

Thanks
JR

JR,

I can't.  The second file system name is the location to which the first
file system is restored.  I create a script with multiple dsmc commands,
each one restoring one file system.  Assuming your data is on separate
tapes or on disk, you have to run multiple commands to restore more than
one file system at a time.

Can you restore mulitple file systems using the command line interface?

ex.

dsmc> restore -subdir=yes "/home/s05jtri/trg/*" "/home/s05jtri/trg1/*"


I am getting an error that the destination directory is wrong.

Thanks
