To restore individual files on UNIX

1. To list the identifiers of current snapshots, use the bpfis command with the query option:

       /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpfis query

   This returns the ID (FIS IDs) of all current snapshots. For example:

   INF - BACKUP START 3629
   INF - FIS IDs: 1036458302
   INF - EXIT STATUS 0: the requested operation was successfully 
   completed

2. For each snapshot identifier, enter bpfis query again, specifying the snapshot ID:

       /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpfis query -id 1036458302

   This returns the path of the original file system (snapshot source) and the path of the snapshot file system. For example:

             INF - BACKUP START 3629
             INF - Snapshot image host : ricopico
             INF - Snapshot image owner: GENERIC
             INF - Time created      : Mon Oct  7 19:35:38 2002
             INF - REMAP FILE BACKUP /mnt/ufscon USING

   /tmp/_vrts_frzn_img_26808/mnt/ufscon

             OPTIONS:ALT_PATH_PREFIX=/tmp/_vrts_frzn_img_26808,FITYPE=MIRROR,
             MNTPOINT=/mnt/ufscon,FSTYPE=ufs
             INF - EXIT STATUS 0: the requested operation was successfully
             completed

   In this example, the primary file system is /mnt/ufscon and the snapshot file system is /tmp/_vrts_frzn_img_26808/mnt/ufscon.

3. Copy the files from the mounted snapshot file system to the original file system.
