RESTORING › RESTORE Method › VOLUME [EXCLUDE]

VOLUME [EXCLUDE]

The VOLUME method restores only clusters and alternate indexes exported on the volumes listed. Alternate indexes and paths related to selected base clusters are included in the restore, even if they appear on another volume.

VOLUME Usage Rules

The following usage rules apply to the VOLUME method:

• Multivolume clusters are restored in their entirety, even if only one of their volumes is listed.
• To exclude clusters from a VOLUME restore, specify cluster name statements along with the EXCLUDE parameter.

  Note: For more information about EXCLUDE, see Cluster Names: Optional Parameters.

• The list of volume serial numbers can be continued to other statements by coding a hyphen (-) as the last nonblank character on a line:

  VOLUME=volser,volser, -
         volser,volser
  

• Any number of volume serial numbers can be specified. These must be separated by commas.
