This section describes how to restore a volume or other data that has been backed up.
All of the data from a volume that has been saved with the snapshot high-speed backup can be restored using either Web Console or the swstrestore command.
To check the restore status, use the swstreststat command.
Note
If restoring for a general file system, stop operations.
Notes about the restoration of a volume group are available in this chapter at "Restoration processing of Volume Group".
Changing the restoration target volume to a volume other than the backup source transaction volume requires a different procedure. For more information, refer to "9.1.4 Notes on Restoration".
Restore an individual file as shown below. Note that you cannot restore an individual file from Web Console.
Mount the backup volume. A special procedure is necessary to place the backup volume in the mount. When the backup volume is placed in the mount, reference should be made to the normal restoration procedure. For this procedure, refer to "9.1.4 Notes on Restoration". Check the backup volume using Web Console or the swsthistdisp command.
Copy the individual files to be restored by using the cp command.
Unmount the backup volume.
