for details on the backup IDs.

If you want to restore the data to a different destination than it was originally read from, specify
the –D flag followed by the destination. The destination must be appropriate the the datatype
being restored. For example, logical volume data must be restored to a logical volume, and a
directory name should be specified for filesystem/directory data restores. For all restores,
except when restoring single filesystems, the data will be restored to the new directory relative
to the original full pathname of the files. For instance, the /home/roger directory, when restored
to the /tmp directory, will be restored as /tmp/home/roger. This prevents files by the same
name, but in different directories, from being restored over one another.

When restoring only a single filesystem to a new destination, the files will be restored relative
to the original filesystem mount point. In this case, a file “/home/file1” in the /home filesystem,
when restored to the /home1 directory (or filesystem), will be restored as /home1/file1. This
allows filesystem data to be moved from one filesystem to another.

The strestore command will exit with a completion message and one of the following exit
codes:

0 Successful
1

Error reading or writing backup data

2

Error occurred prior to reading or writing data

3

Completed with warnings – one or more files may not have been restored

9

Internal program error

99

Killed by user (Ctrl-C)
