19. Restore Data from a Backup

Data may be restored from a TSM server to any client using the SBAdmin Interface. A backup taken from one

client may also be restored to another client, unless, for security reasons, you chose (in the backup profile) not

to allow only the Original Client (owner) to read the backup in the TSM Backup Read Permission field.

Any type of data contained on a backup may be restored. A System Backup, for instance, may contain multiple

volume groups, each of which may contain raw logical volumes and filesystems, each of which may contain

various directories, which each contain multiple files. It is therefore possible to restore one or more files,

directories, logical volumes, filesystems, volume groups, or the entire system from a System Backup!

Restoring data from a System Backup is not the same as reinstalling a client from a

System Backup. This is a different process which is described in detail in the section

Installing from a System Backup in the SBAdmin System Recovery Guide.

Selecting the Backup to Restore From

To restore data from a backup, perform the following steps:

1. Select Actions"Restore Data from a Backup from the menu bar. A window similar to the following will

appear:

2. Use the arrow button to select a Server name. If you want to restore from a backup performed to a

client’s local tape drive, select the “local (client tape)” option at the top of the list. In this case, the

Original Client (owner) field will change to Client Name, and a new field, Device Name will appear.

3. If you selected a TSM Server, use the arrow button to select the Original Client (owner). All backups

are stored on the server in a TSM filespace specific to each client, so you must know the original client

(node) the backup was created for. In this case, any client that was part of the backup job to be verified

will be sufficient, since we need to list the Backup IDs which that client is part of.

4. If you selected local (client tape) in the Server name field, you must select the Client Name and the

Device Name (SBTAPE) from which to read the backup in the fields provided.

5. Press the Select button next to the Backup ID field. You will be provided a list of backup jobs on the

server in which the client is included, similar to the following example:
