Hello Chris

Hmmm, have you tried specifying a -s and a -e flag rather than let bprestore
default to the most recent?   It seems to me that a date range from 9/9/01 to
9/10/01 would be both too recent and too short to effectively restore files
especially since your virus problem occurred before 9/9/01.

No idea why it would then run off to do a full restore though, maybe one of the
files listed in your list was somehow truncated to indicate a parent directory.
When a directory is matched, the restore recurses through the directory.   Maybe
somehow a lower case k got typed in instead of the upper case K, a "-k" flag
would be a keyword match and may have multiple matches.   I would've also
expected a "-t 13" flag for Windows filesystems, the default is 0 for Unix
filesystems.

Goodmorning,
    I am running a bprestore script to grab file that we have
determined were effected by the virus last week and are restoring
them.  It worked fine last week and restored several thousand files
without a problem.  Now it is saying it can't not find certain files
and then running a full restore.  Here is the command I am using.  The
file we have generate to feed to NBU and the output we are getting.
Any help would be appreciated.

Command:
bprestore -K -C racict-h3 -D racict-h3 -L
/var/tmp/virus/_bprestore.racict-h3.{pid} -f
/var/tmp/virus/u_h3_restore.txt

File with data to restore:
36 /ICT-H3/DATA/TS00404/information.exe
32 /ICT-H3/DATA/TS01509/Convert.exe
39 /ICT-H3/DATA/TS01509/stressreducers.exe
31 /ICT-H3/DATA/TS04312/FLYBY2.SCR
39 /ICT-H3/DATA/TS05095/problem solver.exe
33 /ICT-H3/DATA/TS05095/ray game.exe
36 /ICT-H3/DATA/TS05095/UnderShorts.exe
32 /ICT-H3/DATA/TS05095/warning.exe
49 /ICT-H3/DATA/TS06375/My Briefcase/1_snowcraft.exe
46 /ICT-H3/DATA/TS06375/My Briefcase/beertend.exe
46 /ICT-H3/DATA/TS06375/My Briefcase/connect4.exe
45 /ICT-H3/DATA/TS06375/My Briefcase/elfbowl.exe


The problem is it fails to find some of these files:
08:19:40 /ICT-H3/DATA/TS00404/information.exe -s 09/09/2001 21:35:08
-e 09/10/20
01 08:16:54 - no files matched in the given date range
08:19:40 /ICT-H3/DATA/TS01509/Convert.exe -s 09/09/2001 21:35:08 -e
09/10/2001 0
8:16:54 - no files matched in the given date range
08:19:40 /ICT-H3/DATA/TS01509/stressreducers.exe -s 09/09/2001
21:35:08 -e 09/10
/2001 08:16:54 - no files matched in the given date range

And instead it starts a full restore of the system.  We noticed the
problem this morning.  Everything was fine last week when I went
home.  Can anyone see a problem?

Thanks,
Chris
