The ca_restore command contains miscellaneous options that are used to display all associated options and define basic policies and parameters for Arcserve Backup to use during a restore process.
The ca_restore command includes the following miscellaneous options:
ca_restore
[-cahost <hostname>] [info args] [-f <filename>] [-sessionpassword <session password/encryption key>] [-waitForJobStatus [<polling interval (secs)>]] [-help] [-examples] [-usage] [allusage]
Identifies the name of the system hosting the operation.
If you want to execute the operation on a remote system, this switch must be included in the command.
If you want to execute this operation on your local system, this switch is not required and should not be included in the command.
Note: The [-cahost <hostname>] switch is optional. This switch is not needed if you are using these commands locally; however, a hostname is required if you are performing these commands remotely. The host specified by the ‑cahost switch can be a member server or primary server. However, Arcserve Backup will always add the job to the job queue of the primary server, and the primary server will then dispatch the job to the proper server (primary/member) according to this switch when the job is processed.
Note: If you installed Arcserve Backup using the "Arcserve Manager (Console)" mode, you must include the -cahost switch to execute this command from your local machine. Because this Console installation mode does not actually install all Arcserve Backup capabilities on your local machine, it is mandatory that -cahost be included when submitting this command remotely to the primary or member server containing Arcserve Backup or else the command will fail.
Used to specify a file name that contains the switches and parameters for the command.
This switch overcomes the shell limitation of 1024 character input from command line. You can also use this switch to hide passwords by saving them in a file.
Specifies that a session/encryption password will be required in order to restore this data from media. To restore data from one of these sessions, the password must have been provided during backup.
When specified, the ca_restore command will wait until the job is completed, and exit with a return code that indicates the success or fail outcome of the job.
The <polling interval> value defines how often (in seconds) that the ca_restore utility checks the job status with the Queue services. The default polling interval is 60 seconds.
