NAME
rsstatus - report the status of posted restore requests
SYNOPSIS
rsstatus [-h] [-d ddev] [-f field_separator] [-j jobids] [-u users]
DESCRIPTION
With no options, rsstatus reports the status of all pending restore
requests that are posted in the restore status table.
rsstatus may be executed only by a user with superuser privileges.
Volume labels marked with an asterisk in the output of this command
are table of contents volumes.
Options
-d ddev Restricts the report to pending restore jobs that could be
satisfied by the specified device type or volumes. ddev
describes the device or volumes used to select requests to
be restored. ddev is of the form:
[dtype][:dlabels]
dtype is a device type (such as cartridge tape). If
specified, restrict the report to posted requests that
could be satisfied by volumes of the type specified.
dlabels is a list of volume names corresponding to the
volumename displayed by the labelit command. dlabels may
be either comma-separated or blank-separated and surrounded
by quotes. If specified, restrict the report to posted
requests that could be satisfied by an archive residing on
the specified volumes.
-f field_separator
Suppresses field wrap and specifies an output field
separator to be used. field_separator is the character
that will appear as the field separator in the output
displayed. To make sure the output is clear, avoid using a
character (for a separator) that is likely to appear in a
field. For example, do not use a colon as a field
separator if the display will contain dates in which a
colon is used to separate hours from minutes.
-h Suppresses the header for the report.
-j jobids Restricts the report to the jobs specified. jobids is a
list of restore job IDs (either comma-separated or blank-
separated and surrounded by quotes).
