Syntax

To invoke STORE enter: 

  STORE fileset[;parameters]
To invoke RESTORE enter: 

  RESTORE storfile[;parameters]

Operation

Use STORE/RESTORE to store and restore one or more files and directories to and from tape. It has special options that allow you to store files for backup, transport, or archival purposes.

For example, to store all files in all groups in the MFG account, enter: 

  FILE T;DEV=TAPE
  STORE @.@.MFG;*T;SHOW
The system issues a file equation with your logon user name as the formal file designator. You can implicitly use that file equation by omitting a file reference in your STORE command. For example: 

  STORE @.@.MFG;;SHOW
To restore all files in all groups in the MFG account, enter: 

  FILE T;DEV=TAPE
  RESTORE *T;@.@.MFG;SHOW
You may implicitly reference the system-generated file equation by omitting the *T. You must retain the semicolon as a placeholder, however.
