Well, like I said it's not optimized for large volumes, just a quick workaround for up to a few hundred files. If you're not in a hurry you could run it in a screen session :) (will probably take a couple of hours) The '<file_with_names' restore option is useful to get around the speed issue but even with the 'before a speficied time' bit you can't select a specific jobid to restore from (it probably takes the newest match before the time you specify from the latest set of full+differential+incremental backups for the particular device you select), which means you might not get the correct file. In either case you still need to create the file containing the filenames. This should really be solved by fixing bconsole's recursive file selection functionality. You might also try creating a restore Job with an Include section with WildFile arguments or something similar, I haven't tried that. > But I've just found a way to have an unlimited history in the new kde4 > konsole. > which save me ... > > Now just have to insert it in the bconsole restore command. A copy/paste with 50000 filenames is probably going to take a large amount of time too, and if there's even one problem (glitch where prompt doesn't come back in time for example) you may end up with a broken restore. I'm not sure how this handles special characters or spaces in filenames either. > Really I appreciate the script, which would certainly be used one day or > another.
