Extracting files from the dump file after a qtree SnapMirror resynchronization

After the qtree SnapMirror resynchronization between the SnapLock Compliance source and destination volume pairs, any new data created on the destination qtree will be archived in a dump file. These files are stored in the following directory on the destination SnapLock Compliance volume:/etc/logs/snapmirror_resync_archive/volname_UUID_qtree.The image and log files are named dump_image_YYMMDD_HHMMSS and dump_log_YYMMDD_HHMMSS, respectively.

Steps

  1. Create a directory with the name temp in the SnapLock volume.
  2. Copy the dump file into this directory and provide the new name dumpfile to the file.
  3. To view the files contained in the dump file, run the following command:
    restore -tf /vol/volume_name/temp/dumpfile
  4. To restore the files contained in the dump file to their original location, enter the following command:
    restore -rfQ /vol/volume_name/temp/dumpfile
  5. To restore the files contained in the dump file to a different location, enter the following command:
    restore -rfQD /vol/volume_name/temp/dumpfile /vol/volume_name/tempThe files extracted will be in their original SnapLock state irrespective of the approach used.
