Sorry guys, this statement is not true. Let's assume the following scenario:

   - You have forgotten to switch on the 'Monitor Rap' option to log resource 
changes
   - You desperately need to recover an older configuration or a single resource
   - You know that resources are stored within a bootstrap save set. But this 
guy never becomes browsable. And recovering means to run a DR which will 
overwrite the media db as well. So how to retrieve the resources?

Simply use "recover -S<your_bootstrap_ssid>  -a /nsr/res".
OK, so what happens if you exclude '-a'? What will it do differently?

The man page says: "-a Specifies automatic file recovery with no interactive browsing." Since this isn't browsable anyway, what will the result be between using '-a' or not using it in this case?
The resources will be copied back to /nsr/res.R (as usual). And with a litte 
more research you should be able to find what you want.
