RESTORING › RESTORE Optional Parameters › REMP | NOREMP

REMP | NOREMP

The REMP (RESTORE empty) parameter causes CA FAVER to define any empty clusters encountered on the tape that meet the restore criteria. Before the empty cluster is defined, a delete is issued for a cluster of the same name. The NOREMP parameter instructs CA FAVER to skip processing for any empty clusters encountered on the tape.

Syntax

This parameter has no operands.

Usage Rule

The following usage rules apply:

• NOREMP is the default when CA FAVER is initially installed, but REMP can be set as the default with the GVPARMS utility.

  Note: For more information, see the chapter "Changing EXPORT/RESTORE System Defaults."

• If NOREMP is in effect, empty clusters are bypassed, even if they meet the restore criteria.
