Restore Your File Systems

Use these instructions to restore your file systems if you back up and migrate files to the same server. Enter commands to restore your file systems in the exact order that is presented in the following steps. Otherwise, you might not obtain the results that you want.

  1. Reinstall the backup-archive client and the HSM client.
  2. Follow your operating system instructions to establish your native file systems again.
  3. Mount each file system that you want to restore. For information about mounting file systems, see Mounting Your File Systems First.
  4. Add space management to each file system that the HSM client previously managed. For information about adding space management, see Adding Space Management to Your File Systems.
  5. Enter the backup-archive client dsmc restore command with the restoremigstate option set to yes. You can perform this step for one or more file systems at the same time.

    The backup-archive client restores backup versions of resident files and stub files for migrated and premigrated files. For example, to restore the /home file system, enter:

       dsmc restore -restoremigstate=yes -sub=yes "/home/*"
