After users grant you access to their files on the server, you can restore or retrieve those files to your local system. You can display another user's file spaces on the server, restore the other user's backup versions, or retrieve the other user's archive copies to your local file system.
To display another user's file spaces on the server, restore the other user's backup versions, or retrieve the other user's archive copies to your local drives:
If you are using commands, use the fromnode and fromowner options to indicate the node name and the name of the user who owns the files.
For example, to restore files to one of your own file systems that were backed up from a workstation named Node1 and owned by a user named Ann, enter:
dsmc restore -fromn=node1 -fromo=ann "/home/proj/*" /home/gillis/
Use the query filespace command to get a list of file spaces (see Query Filespace). For example, to get a list of file spaces owned by Ann on Node1, enter:
dsmc query filespace -fromn=node1 -fromo=ann
See Fromnode for more information about the fromnode option. See Restore for more information about using the fromnode and fromowner options with the restore command. Also seeRetrieve for more information about the retrieve command.
