Save the file.

== Restore with dar using e-smith-backup ==

Restores can be done for:

-the entire system.

-a selected file only.

-a selected directory and all of its contents.

The entire system and a selected file only can be done through the server-manager.

The selected directory can be done via shell.

(You will have to adjust for your particular situation.)

First, MOUNT THE BACKUP DRIVE (if required):

mount /dev/sdc1 /media/BackupDrive1/

Then, RESTORE THE DIRECOTRY:

dar -x /media/BackupDrive1/server.domain.local/set2/full-201408092200 -N -R / -w -g home/e-smith/files/ibays/share_data/files

You may also have to RESTORE ANY INCREMENTS:

dar -x /media/BackupDrive1/server.domain.local/set2/inc-001-201408102200.1.dar -N -R / -w -g home/e-smith/files/ibays/share_data/files

dar -x /media/BackupDrive1/server.domain.local/set2/inc-002-201408112200.1.dar -N -R / -w -g home/e-smith/files/ibays/share_data/files
