Examples

• To restore the secondary partition of the file $PUBS.BOOKS.SECT1 to the volume $SAVE:

1> RESTORE $TAPE, $PUBS.BOOKS.SECT1, PART (2, $SAVE)

• To restore the secondary partition of the file $DATA.GOOD.ONE to the volume $SAFE and

sets the primary and secondary file extents to 2 and 3, respectively:

1> RESTORE $TAPE1, $DATA.GOOD.ONE, PART (3, $SAFE, 2, 3)

PARTOF

The PARTOF option restores only the partitions in restore-files whose primary partitions reside

on a volume named in volume-specification. Both primary and secondary partitions are

restored. Nonpartitioned files defined by restore-files are not restored. (Partitioned Enscribe

files only.)

PARTOF volume-specification

volume-specification

specifies where the primary partition must reside if the partition is to be restored. The

volume-specification parameter is in one of these formats:

restores any partitions defined by the restore-files.

$volume( $volume , $volume ... )

restores only the partitions whose primary partition resides on that volume and that are

defined by restore-files. Volume names used with the PARTOF option can include

wild-card characters (? and *):

* (asterisk) matches from 0 through 8 characters in the position where it appears.

? (question mark) matches one character in the position where it appears.

For example, the volume name $SB?? matches all four-character volume names that begin

with SB. The file name *CH? matches all file names that end with CH followed by any

single character.

Guidelines

• You cannot use the PARTOF option if your RESTORE command also contains the EXT option.

• If you include the PARTOF option, the PARTONLY option of the BACKUP process must not

have been specified when the tape was made. If it was, the RESTORE process terminates.

• If you include the PARTOF option, RESTORE must read the tape set (until it finds the primary

partition) before it can restore individual secondary partitions.

• RESTORE lets both restore-files and the PARTOF option define more than one volume.

Enter the RESTORE command carefully.

• The PARTOF option applies to Enscribe files, but you should use the PARTONLY ON option

to achieve the same effect.
