STORE/RESTORE 

Syntax 

To invoke STORE enter:

     STORE fileset[;parameters]

To invoke RESTORE enter:

     RESTORE storfile[;parameters]

Operation 

Use STORE/RESTORE to store and restore one or more files and directories
to and from tape.  It has special options that allow you to store files
for backup, transport, or archival purposes. 

For example, to store all files in all groups in the MFG account, enter:

     FILE T;DEV=TAPE 
     STORE @.@.MFG;*T;SHOW 

The system issues a file equation with your logon user name as the formal 
file designator.  You can implicitly use that file equation by omitting a
file reference in your STORE command.  For example:

     STORE @.@.MFG;;SHOW 

To restore all files in all groups in the MFG account, enter:

     FILE T;DEV=TAPE 
     RESTORE *T;@.@.MFG;SHOW 

You may implicitly reference the system-generated file equation by
omitting the *T. You must retain the semicolon as a placeholder, however.
