WSRESTORE(8n)           COMMAND REFERENCE           WSRESTORE(8n)



NAME
     wsrestore - multi-workstation restore utility

SYNOPSIS
     /etc/wsrestore [ -w workstation ] [ -f filesystem ] [ -t
     restore device ] [ -m modification date ] [ -l last access
     date ] [ -d dump date and time ] [ -r restore directory ] [
     -o restore options ] [ -F ] [ -S ]

DESCRIPTION
     Wsrestore is a multi-workstation restore that runs in
     conjunction with rrestore(8n). Wsrestore executes rrestore
     on a remote workstation, allowing that workstation to
     restore from a dump media on the host server to the
     workstation's storage device.

OPTIONS
     -w workstation
          This option specifies the workstation to be restored.
          This option is required.  If it is not entered on the
          command line, then wsrestore will prompt for it.

     -f filesystem
          This option specifies the filesystem to be restored.
          This option is required.  If it is not entered on the
          command line, then wsrestore will prompt for it.

     -t restore device
          This option specifies the restore device to be used in
          restoring archived files.  The path must be a complete
          path specifying the device as a floppy, a cartridge
          tape, a 9 track tape, or a disk file.  The raw device
          should be specified and no rewind should be used for 9
          track or cartridge tape (e.g. /dev/nrmt8).  Default
          devices are used depending on the media specified ( see
          -F and -S ).

     -m modification date
          This option specifies the modification date of the file
          to be restored.  This date is used to scan the
          /etc/wsdumpdates file to locate the proper volume to
          mount for the restore.  This option must be entered
          along with -l unless the -d option has been used.  If
          it is not entered on the command line, then wsrestore
          will prompt for it.

     -l last access date
          This option specifies the last access date of the file
          to be restored.  This date is used to scan the
          /etc/wsdumpdates file to locate the proper volume to
          mount for the restore.  This option must be entered
          along with -m unless the -d option has been used.  If

          it is not entered on the command line, then wsrestore
          will prompt for it.

     -d dump date
          This option specifies the dump date of the volume to be
          restored.  The dump date must be entered as date and
          time exactly to match the volume required as listed in
          the /etc/wsdumpdates file.  If this option is used, -m
          and -l are unnecessary.

     -r restore directory
          This option specifies the restore directory on the
          workstation where files are to be restored.  The
          default directory is /usr/dumpopr/restore.

     -o restore options
          This option specifies the additional restore options to
          be used.  The default option is -i for interactive
          restoration.

     -F   Specifies floppy disk backup media (9-track tape is
          default).

     -S   Specifies streamer cartridge tape backup media (9-track
          tape is default).

     If no options are given, wsrestore will prompt for all
     information to perform the restore.  You must be logged in
     as dumpopr to execute wsrestore.

EXAMPLES
     /etc/wsrestore   -w dolphin -f /dev/dw00a -t /dev/nrmt7
          (interactive restore of filesystem "/dev/dw00a" on
          "dolphin" from 9-track tape device "/dev/nrmt7".
          Extracted files are placed in /usr/dumpopr/restore on
          "dolphin".)

     /etc/wsrestore   -S -t /dev/ntc -r /tmp
          (interactive restore from local tape cartridge device
          "/dev/ntc".  Workstation and filesystem are prompted
          for by wsrestore.  Extracted files are placed in /tmp
          on specified workstation.)

     /etc/wsrestore   -w duke -d "08/22/85 03:23:34" -o iv
          (verbose interactive restore of workstation "duke" for
          dump done on August 22, 1985 at 3:23:34.  Restore
          device and filesystem are prompted for by wsrestore.)

FILES
     /etc/wsdumpdates         Dump date record - scanned to find
                              volume to mount for restore.
