Restoring or Retrieving Files from Another Client Node

If you want to restore files backed up or retrieve files archived by another NetWare client node, then you need access to those files as described in Authorizing Another Client Node to Restore or Retrieve Your Files.

If you are granted access to files backed up by a different client node, you can restore those files by using the fromnode option with the restore command. For example, you could enter the following:

   load dsmc res -fromnode=nw2 servb\sys:home/proj/* serva\sys:home/proj/

where nw2 is the node name for another NetWare server, servb\sys:home/proj/* indicates the name of the server and the files you want to restore, and serva\sys:home/proj/ indicates where you want to place the files you are restoring. You must specify a destination, or Tivoli Storage Manager attempts to restore the files to the server from which the files were backed up.

You can retrieve archived files in the same way, using the retrieve command.

For more information about the fromnode option, see Fromnode.
