To RESTORE files from magneto-optical devices, use the MOSET
parameters in the RESTORE command to reference the devices. Use of
the MOSET parameters is explained in the following pages.
Specifying the Magneto-Optical Device |
 |
Normally, you do not need to designate a specific device or LDEV when
restoring from a magneto-optical device. You use the MOSET
option to indicate a magneto-optical device. You do not use file
equations as you do when using tape drives. Nor do you use the
RESTORESET option to back reference the device. Instead, you
specify that the RESTORE is to be from the MO device through the
MOSET option of the RESTORE command. For example:
If you must specify the LDEV, (for example, you have multiple
magneto-optical devices and media is not loaded in the magneto-optical
device), the MOSET option can be used to specify the LDEV number.
For example:
Specifying the Backup Name |
 |
The media name you specified with the STORE command is required when
restoring from a magneto-optical device. Use the NAME option to
indicate the logical tape name from which the RESTORE is to be done.
For example:
;NAME=BK1130PM.D23OCT90.KING
|
If the media is not loaded in the magneto-optical device at the time the
RESTORE is started, you are prompted to mount the media. For
example:
23:24/#S1/51/MOUNT THE MEDIA LABELLED BK1130PM.D23OCT90.KING IN THE MAILSLOT OF LDEV 101 (Y/N)?
|
After you load the correct media in the magneto-optical device, reply to
the message.
When the specific media is no longer required, it ejects to the devices
mail slot. The media is returned to the storage slot or mail slot
depending on where the specific media was loaded.
Restoring from a Single Magneto-Optical Device |
 |
The following example illustrates the RESTORE command to RESTORE
files from a single magneto-optical device.
:RESTORE; @.@.@;MOSET=(MO);NAME=BK1130PM.D23OCT90.KING
