2. The Cell Manager determines the type of session that has been
requested (restore), and starts the appropriate Session Manager.
3. The Session Manager then determines which filesystems or
directories to restore, which devices to use, and what restore options
have been specified.
4. The Session Manager starts the appropriate Disk Agent and Media
Agent. For example, a Media Agent is started for the media (tape)
drive that will be used and a Disk Agent is started for the disk to
which the data will be restored.
5. The Monitor window appears. This window lets you respond to
mount requests and view the progress of a restore session.
6. The Media Agent starts sending data to the Disk Agent.
7. The Session Manager then updates the IDB and the Disk Agent
writes the data to the disk.
