You can name a single file to RESTORE, several individual files, or
all the files from one or more STORE tapes.
The group of files you want to RESTORE
is called a fileset. In addition to naming many kinds
of filesets, you can name file subsets
to exclude from the RESTORE process.
As a system supervisor (with OP capability) or a system manager (with
SM capability), you can RESTORE any file in the system. To RESTORE
a file that is not in your logon group and account, you must specify
the complete name of the file in the form filename.group.account.
If you do not name an account for the file, RESTORE assumes
your logon account.
If you do not name a group, RESTORE
assumes your current group. Thus, if you want to restore
a file from your logon group and account, you need only specify its
filename. RESTORE does not RESTORE a file if its group
and account do not exist on your system, unless you instruct RESTORE
to create accounts and groups (using the CREATE parameter).
Refer to "Creating Accounts, Groups, and Creators", later in this chapter.
RESTORE uses the same guidelines and syntax to describe files
to be restored as STORE.
See the "Referencing Files in a STORE Command," in
Chapter 5, "Storing Files."
You do not need to specify a fileset for the RESTORE command.
If you omit a list of files in the RESTORE command, the default is to
restore a fileset based on your capabilities,
as follows:
@.group.account for users
@.@.account for the account manager (AM)
@.@.@ for the system manager (SM) and system supervisor (OP)
