NAME
     osxfsrestore - incremental file system restore for OSx (TOS) dump
     tapes

SYNOPSIS
     /sbin/osxfsrestore options V [filename ...]

DESCRIPTION
     osxfsrestore is identical to ufsrestore except that it works with dump
     tapes created by the dump command of the OSx Operating System (= TOS
     on Targon /35). osxfsrestore restores files from these backup tapes
     thus migrating the file system from OSx to Reliant UNIX.

     Since the ufs and osxfs file systems and the OSx and Reliant UNIX
     operating systems are different, there may be OSx files that have no
     meaning on a Reliant UNIX system (for instance, conditional symbolic
     links have no meaning in Reliant UNIX). These files (and links to
     these files) will not be extracted. See the diagnostics section below
     for a list of these file types.

     options and any remaining arguments are identical to those of ufsre-
     store. Additionally, if the V option is given, then messages describ-
     ing OSx specific files will be printed along with a note stating that
     they will not be extracted.

NOTES
     All notes applicable to ufsrestore apply to osxfsrestore, including
     the following:

     osxfsrestore will get confused when a restore is tried using a ufs
     dump tape.

DIAGNOSTICS
     All diagnostics applicable to ufsrestore apply to osxfsrestore,
     including the following:

     Converting from OSx file system format to UFS format.
          This message will always be printed when running osxfsrestore.

     skipped symbolic link to OSx file name (ino NNN) -> symboliclinkpathname
     skipped hard link to OSx file name (ino NNN) -> pathnameoflink
          These messages will be printed if there was a link to an OSx
          specific file that was not extracted.

     skipped OSx dependent file name (ino NNN):
          This message indicates a file that was not extracted because it
          is OSx specific. It will be followed by one of the following mes-
          sages which further describes the file.

     OSx conditional symbolic link (-> symboliclinkpathname).

     OSx zero length conditional symbolic link.
