Restoring Backup Sets Using the GUI

Attention: Before you begin a restore, be aware that backup sets can contain data for multiple file spaces. If you specify a destination other than the original location, data from all file spaces is restored to the location you specify.

To restore a backup set, perform the following steps:

Note: To enable the GUI client to restore a backup set on an attached device on a UNIX standalone workstation, without requiring a server connection, use the localbackupset option. See Localbackupset for more information. The restore backupset command supports restore of local backup sets from local media without using the localbackupset option. Also, certain local devices such as tape devices require device drivers to be setup prior to performing a restore. See the device manual for assistance with this task. You will also need to know the device address in order to perform the restore.
