For a CATSEARCH restore job, CA VM:Backup searches catalogs that are created during a specified time period. When it finds the data to restore, CA VM:Backup restores the version of the data that was backed up most recently within this time period. If the version of the data that is selected is from an incremental backup, to perform the restore, CA VM:Backup uses all previous incremental backups and the full backup on which they are based.
For a VOLSEARCH restore job, CA VM:Backup checks whether the starting input tape was created within the specified time period. If the tape was not created in this period, CA VM:Backup does not run the job. If the tape was created within the specified time period, the job continues. If the specified tape is from an incremental backup, to perform the restore, CA VM:Backup uses all previous incremental backups and the full backup on which they are based.
The To Limit Restore, Specify Search Range section of the screen shows the default start and default end dates and times. The default start date and time is 01/01/1942 00:00:00, and the default end date and time is 12/31/2041 23:59:59. You can type over these dates and times to specify a different time period. Use the date format mm/dd/yyyy for the dates, and a 24-hour format for the times.
To perform an incremental-only restore of a minidisk, create a TPI job and include the CUTOFF record. The CUTOFF record can prevent CA VM:Backup from going back to the full backup. For more information about this record, see the Template Programming Interface Guide.
