Hi all, A question came up about getting an older version of a file on a Linux disk, which I was able to do by restoring the DASD that held the file in question to a temporary disk and then they could do whatever they liked with the file, easy enough. It got me to thinking about, what would happen if this were to take place on an LVM? Having a dasd-level backup is likely to be of limited use in this case, because you'd more than likely have to restore the entire LVM to a separate set of disks just to get at that one file.
So does anyone know of a solution (free being better) that would do a file-level backup for zLinux to a tape? Or has anyone dealt with this problem before and had some other way around it?
