Parameters
restorefile The name of the device that contains the files you want restored to the
system. This file must be backreferenced, using an asterisk (*). A File
equation for restorefile should be set up before invoking RESTORE. If you
want to restore files from a file called SOURCE enter this file equation
before running RESTORE:
FILE SOURCE;DEV=TAPE
The restorefile can now reference a remote device. For example,
FILE REMOTE;DEV=REMSYS#TAPE
RESTORE *REMOTE;@;SHOW
NM RESTORE will restore all files from the specified remote device.
Although the initial tape mount request will appear on the remote console,
all of RESTORE's console messages will be displayed on the local console.
Currently, labeled tapes and Magneto-optical devices cannot be used for
remote backup.
A message is displayed on the system console requesting the operator to
mount the tape identified by the restorefile parameter and to allocate the
device.
