Restoring backed up node files of the BS2000-UFS or remote nodes S0 is initiated by means of the HSMS statement RESTORE-NODE-FILES.
Nonprivileged users can restore their own node files residing on the local BS2000-UFS. They can restore their node files from any backup archive to which they have access (USER-ACCESS=*ALL-USERS). A restricted form of the HSMS statement RESTORE-NODE-FILES is available to them for this purpose.
The HSMS administrator has access to all backup archives in order to restore the node files of all users that reside on the local BS2000-UFS or any remote file system.
When restoring the hard links of a node file, the corresponding inodes and data are restored first. Subsequently, the link between the path name and the inode is restored. If the node file to be restored existed on the node S0 before restoration, the hard links existing at restore time are retained.
