Hello, Server AIX 4.2.x , Client AIX 4.2.1.x
Long time ago we back-up AIX-client file-systems from one particular client, like /home, /usr, /u01, /u02 and so on. The system was out of service for a few months and now back in business. The last active versions are still on our TSM-server and we like to restore them (for some reasons) to a directory on another machine. We want to restore to file-system '/tsm_archive' to directory '/node_archive'. We start the restore of the above-mentioned file-systems to the following location: /tsm_archive/node_archive and like to restore the complete path. We tried several ways but every session is restoring the files in /home, /usr and so on to /tsm_archive/node_archive, but without directory /home, /usr and so on. Sub-directories are restored in the right way. I guess it have to deal with the fact that /home, /usr, /u01 and so on were file-systems once and now we like to 'see' it as a directory. I accept it, but is there a sneaky way to restore the file-system to a directory and preserve the original structure. Thanks, Brian.
