18 .SH DESCRIPTION
19 .sp
20 .LP
21 The \fBufsrestore\fR utility restores files from backup media created with the
22 \fBufsdump\fR command. \fBufsrestores\fR's actions are controlled by the
23 \fIkey\fR argument. The \fIkey\fR is exactly one \fBfunction\fR \fIletter\fR
24 (\fBi\fR, \fBr\fR, \fBR\fR , \fBt\fR, or \fBx\fR) and zero or more \fIfunction
25 modifier\fRs (letters). The \fIkey\fR string contains no \fBSPACE\fR
26 characters. Function modifier arguments are listed on the command line in the
27 same order as their corresponding function modifiers appear in the \fIkey\fR
28 string.
29 .sp
30 .LP
31 \fIfilename\fR arguments which appear on the command line, or as arguments to
32 an interactive command, are treated as shell \fBglob\fR patterns by the \fBx\fR
33 and \fBt\fR functions; any files or directories matching the patterns are
34 selected. The metacharacters \fB*\fR, \fB?\fR, and \fB[ ]\fR must be protected
35 from the shell if they appear on the command line. There is no way to quote
36 these metacharacters to explicitly match them in a filename.
37 .sp
38 .LP
39 The temporary files \fBrstdir*\fR and \fBrstmode*\fR are placed in \fB/tmp\fR
40 by default. If the environment variable \fBTMPDIR\fR is defined with a
41 non-empty value, that location is used instead of \fB/tmp\fR.
42 .SH OPTIONS

46 You must specify one (and only one) of the function letters listed below. Note
47 that \fBi\fR, \fBx\fR, and \fBr\fR are intended to restore files into an empty
48 directory. The \fBR\fR function is intended for restoring into a populated
49 directory.

56 Interactive. After reading in the directory information from the media,
57 \fBufsrestore\fR invokes a shell-like interface that allows you to browse
58 through the dump file's directory hierarchy and select individual files to be
59 extracted. Restoration has the same semantics as \fBx\fR (see below). See
60 \fBInteractive Commands\fR, below, for a description of available commands.

69 Recursive. Starting with an empty directory and a level 0 dump, the \fBr\fR
70 function recreates the filesystem relative to the current working directory,
71 exactly as it appeared when the dump was made. Information used to restore
72 incremental dumps on top of the full dump (for example, \fBrestoresymtable\fR)
73 is also included. Several \fBufsrestore\fR runs are typical, one for each
74 higher level of dump (0, 1, ..., 9). Files that were deleted between the level
75 0 and a subsequent incremental dump will not exist after the final restore. To
76 completely restore a file system, use the \fBr\fR function restore the level 0
77 dump, and again for each incremental dump. Although this function letter is
78 intended for a complete restore onto a new file system (one just created with
79 \fBnewfs\fR(8)), if the file system contains files not on the backup media,
80 they are preserved.

89 Resume restoring. If an \fBr\fR-mode \fBufsrestore\fR was interrupted, this
90 function prompts for the volume from which to resume restoring and continues
91 the restoration from where it was left off. Otherwise identical to \fBr\fR.

100 Table of contents. List each \fIfilename\fR that appears on the media. If no
101 \fIfilename\fR argument is given, the root directory is listed. This results in
102 a list of all files on the media, unless the \fBh\fR function modifier is in
103 effect. The table of contents is taken from the media or from the specified
104 archive file, when the \fBa\fR function modifier is used. The \fBa\fR function
105 modifier is mutually exclusive with the \fBx\fR and \fBr\fR function letters.

114 Extract the named files from the media. Files are restored to the same relative
115 locations that they had in the original file system.
116 .sp
117 If the \fIfilename\fR argument matches a directory whose contents were written
118 onto the media, and the \fBh\fR modifier is not in effect, the directory is
119 recursively extracted, relative to the current directory, which is expected to
120 be empty. For each file, the owner, modification time, and mode are restored
121 (if possible).
122 .sp
123 If you omit the \fIfilename\fR argument or specify \fB\&.\fR, the root
124 directory is extracted. This results in the entire tape being extracted, unless
125 the \fBh\fR modifier is in effect. . With the \fBx\fR function, existing files
126 are overwritten and \fBufsrestore\fR displays the names of the overwritten
127 files. Overwriting a currently-running executable can have unfortunate
128 consequences.
129 .sp
130 Use the \fBx\fR option to restore partial file system dumps, as they are (by
131 definition) not entire file systems.

141 Read the table of contents from \fIarchive_file\fR instead of the media. This
142 function modifier can be used in combination with the \fBt\fR, \fBi\fR, or
143 \fBx\fR function letters, making it possible to check whether files are on the
144 media without having to mount the media. When used with the \fBx\fR and
145 interactive (\fBi\fR) function letters, it prompts for the volume containing
146 the file(s) before extracting them.

190 \fIdump_file\fR is specified as `\fB\(mi\fR\&', \fBufsrestore\fR reads from the
191 standard input. This allows \fBufsdump\fR(8) and \fBufsrestore\fR to be used
192 in a pipeline to copy a file system:

219 the drive off-line and wait up to two minutes (the default, see the \fBT\fR
220 function modifier) for the tape drive to be ready again. This gives autoloading
221 (stackloader) tape drives a chance to load a new tape. If the drive is ready

279 are assumed to start at position 0, no matter what "\fBs\fR \fIn\fR" value is
280 specified.
281 .sp
282 If "\fBs\fR \fIn\fR" is specified, the backup media must be at \fBBOT\fR
283 (beginning of tape). Otherwise, the initial positioning to read the table of
284 contents will fail, as it is performed by skipping the tape forward
285 \fIn\fR\fB-1\fR files rather than by using absolute positioning. This is
286 because on some devices absolute positioning is very time consuming.

625 The specified file name was listed in the tape directory, but was not found on
626 the tape. This is caused by tape read errors while looking for the file, using
627 a dump tape created on an active file system, or restoring a partial dump with
628 the \fBr\fR function.

725 \fBufsrestore\fR can get confused when doing incremental restores from dump
726 tapes that were made on active file systems.
727 .sp
728 .LP
729 A \fBlevel 0\fR dump must be done after a full restore. Because
730 \fBufsrestore\fR runs in user mode, it has no control over inode allocation.
731 This means that \fBufsrestore\fR repositions the files, although it does not
732 change their contents. Thus, a full dump must be done to get a new set of
733 directories reflecting the new file positions, so that later incremental dumps
734 will be correct.
