Performing a Restore

You can run restore operations from the command line interface.

Before You Begin

You must create an input XML file.

Procedure

1. From Command prompt, navigate to <software installation directory>\Base and run the following command:

    
   qlogin -cs <commserve name> -u <user name>

2. Navigate to the location where the .xml file is saved and execute the saved .xml script using the qoperation execute command.

    
   qoperation execute -af restore.xml

3. Verify the status of the job using the following command:

   qlist job -j jobID

4. Once the job completes, log off from the CommServe using the qlogout command.

   qlogout [−cs <commserve_host_name>] [−all] [−tf <tokenfile>] [−tk <token>] [−h]

Examples

Finding Data

The following command is available for finding backed up data.

qlist backupfiles

Description

This command performs a search operation on backed up files and saves the results to a file. The type of operation is defined in the opType attribute in the XML request file:

• Find: Performs a recursive search and returns a list of files and folders. Specify recursion by using asterisks in the path attribute as shown: <paths path="C:\data\**\*" />.

• Browse: Performs a search on one directory and returns a list of files and folders in that directory. (The Browse operation is not recursive.)

• Versions: Lists all of the versions of a single file.

For the Find and Browse operations, you can limit the results to backed up files for a specific job by using the <jobId> element in the XML request file.

In case of an error, an error code and description are displayed as: "backupfiles: Error errorcode: errordescription"

Usage

qlist backupfiles -af <path_to_input_XML_file> -dpath <path_to_output_XML_file> [-tf <tokenfile>] [-tk <token>] [-example] [-h]
