RESTORE
If restorefile is not supplied and the RESTORESET option is not used, then
RESTORE creates a default file name. The default file name is the user's
logon username. No file equation is used.
Sequential and parallel devices are specified with the RESTORESET option.
Similarly, magneto-optical devices are specified using the MOSET option.
You should not specify restorefile when using RESTORESET or MOSET.
A disk file can also be specified with a file equation for restorefile. An
example of such a file equation would be:
:FILE MYDISC=DISCBACK.DAILY.BACKUP;DEV=DISC
Note that DEV=DISC must be specified for RESTORE to recover files from
disk backups. All other information in the file equation will be ignored by
RESTORE.
NOTE TurboSTORE/iX 7x24 True-Online Backup must be used to create disk
backups.
filesetlist Specifies the set of files to be restored. The default depends on the user's
capability, as shown below:
Default Capability
@ None
@.@ Account manager (AM)
@.@.@ and/or system supervisor (OP)
The filesetlist parameter has the form shown below:
filesetitem[,filesetitem[...]]
where filesetitem can be ^indirectfile or fileset.
indirectfile A file name that backreferences a disk file. The syntax is
^indirectfile or !indirectfile
This file may consist of fileset(s) and option(s), but only options can appear
after the first semicolon (:) on each line. An option specified on one line will
operate on all files in the filesetlist.
^indirectfile is the preferred format. If you use !indirectfile, the CI will
interpret this as a variable reference, so you will have to specify indirectfile
instead.
fileset Specifies a set of files to be restored, and optionally those files to be
excluded from the RESTORE operation. The fileset parameter has the
form:
filestorestore[-filestoexclude[..]]
