Restoring Files With No Detail Information

This section explains how to restore files for which no detail information is available. You cannot restore any other types of files when restoring these files.

To restore one or more files for which no detail information is available, follow these steps:

1. On the file selection screen, type r in the Req column next to a ** No Detail ** entry. If necessary, press PF7 (Backward) or PF8 (Forward) to move through the list. You can also enter top or bottom on the command line to move to the first or last files listed, respectively.
2. Press PF9 (Submit). CA VM:Backup displays the Restore Files by File Name screen.
3. Type the filenames in the Filename column and the filetypes in the Filetype column of the individual files you want to restore. You can use pattern matching to restore files with similar filenames or filetypes. If you want to restore more than eight uniquely named files, you must create another restore request.
4. Press ENTER to submit the request to CA VM:Backup.
