The Submit Special SFS/BFS Restores screen displays a search range. This range limits the catalogs CA VM:Backup searches when looking for data to restore. By default, CA VM:Backup uses 01/01/1942 for the start date and today's date for the end date. CA VM:Backup restores the most recent version of the data backed up in that search range. To restore an earlier version of the data, change the end date to an earlier date.
Because of the way CA VM:Backup stores file pool information in the catalog, specify a start date when restoring file pools and user storage groups. The start date will prevent CA VM:Backup from restoring more domains than you intended. For example, suppose you want to restore a file pool. Two weeks ago (12/01/04) you deleted many file spaces from it and you do not want CA VM:Backup to restore them. To make sure CA VM:Backup does not restore the deleted file spaces, specify an OLDDATE that is later than 12/01/04 but early enough to contain the data you want to restore. If you do not specify a start date, CA VM:Backup uses the default start date (01/01/1942) and continues searching for and restoring file spaces back to that date.
