Re: [Veritas-bu] Script Restores?

You can restore from the command-line using "bprestore", and you can backup using "bpbackup". As far as choosing what you're going restore and from when, I'm not sure exactly how your backups are laid out or anything so you're going to have to look at the Command Reference or man pages for bprestore to see if you can find a relatively easy way to script it for your needs. But the tools are available from the command-line to make the restores happen from a script.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Script Restores?

Is it possible to script restore jobs? I have about 20 9840 tapes containing about 100 jobs on a NB 5.1 system that I need to restore and then copy the data over to a new location to be backed up in NB 6 to LTO3. Doing it manually is taking forever since I have to do one job at a time. Any help is appreciated, I don't want to be doing this for the next month straight.
