Re: restoring files from another machine

[DIEGO GARCIA _ DIRECCION DE SISTEMAS-.]

May be you can probe to change your dsm.sys file

Where you find

NODENAME machine_where_backup

change to

NODENAME machine_where_restore

For example, i want to restore files from node euler in node euler2, you
must add/change line NODENAME euler with line NODENAME euler2

Also, you must verify that any session from euler machine be active

Use q ses

Cordially
