Use the procedures in this section to restore an iSeries backup. With Unitrends version 7.1 and higher, you can restore to the original server or to an alternate iSeries server. For earlier Unitrends versions, only restores to the original iSeries server are supported.
To restore data to an iSeries system, select Restore. This launches the Restore menu from which you select the iSeries system to which you will be restoring data.
After selecting the server to which you will be restoring data, you will have the option of doing a full or selective restore.
If you choose to perform a full restore, you will be given the option to enter a list of files you wish to exclude from your restore. Please specify the full path of the filename you want to exclude with one entry per line. When your list is complete, type q to end your list and launch your restore.
If you choose to perform a selective restore, you will be given the option to enter a list of files you wish to include in your restore. Please specify the full path of the filename you want to include with one entry per line. You may optionally restore Libraries and IFS objects to an alternate location. Please specify the full path of the destination or leave blank to restore to the original location. When your list is complete, type q to end your list and launch your restore.
There can only be one restore operation running at any given time. Therefore, before initiating a restore, check to ensure that there are no active backup or restore jobs running.
