Short: Restore backups made with PC-TOOLS SCSI (PC) Author: blacky@caiw.nl Uploader: blacky caiw nl Type: disk/backup Architecture: m68k-amigaos This program can restore backups made with PC-tools on a PC onto a SCSI-tape. The structure of a PC-tools backup is split into three parts: 1 - a backup-header, which is not used by this program. 2 - the backup-body, the actual backup-data. 3 - the backup-index, an index file which contains information about the files this program requires these three parts in file-format, you can do this by using the 'Better Than Nothing' TAPE-handler by Bob Rethemeyer. Read his instructions how to use the handler. (disk/backup/BTNtape30.lha) the usage of the program is as follows: restore_pctools ,, where: INDEX-NAME = the name of the backup-index mentioned above. MAIN-NAME = the name of the backup-body mentioned above. POSNAME = the name of a file where the last position that was restored will be kept. NOTE : the restoration of the backup will be done in the current directory. example: you've copied the backup-body to dh0:test/backup you've copied the backup-index to dh0:test/index you wish to use a pos-file called dh0:test/pos you wish to restore all to dh0:test then the commandline would look like this : (cd dh0:test) restore_pctools index,backup,pos After this the program will restore the complete backup. After 25 files have been restored, you will be notified and given the oppertunety to either con- tinue the restore or quit the restore. if you quit, you can continue later because the last position is stored in the pos-file. #### # # ##### # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # #### # ##### # ### # # # # # # # # # # # #### ##### # # ##### # # # ***** ***** * **** **** * * ***** ***** * * * * * * * * * * * * ***** * ***** **** * * * * ***** * * * * * * * * * * * * * ***** * * * * * **** ***** ***** *
