After restoration, in the unix world, you can run dsmserv foreground and use that to
change any admin passwords. All that is needed is a unix ID that has access to the

5GB memory, but at the moment only 2CPU's.

1. Yes, that is possible, by pointing out the volumenames using

Your plan is extremely ambitious.
Is this a one off or are are you planning to do this regularly.
How are you goung to achieve this.
Anyway you can get a reasonable idea from taking the filepace occupancy, unless
you have major excludes from backup, this is going to be your active file size
I agree with John, this sounds very ambitious.
If you are only interested in active files, there is the possibility of
checking it on the actual client, how much data in each filespace
(filesystem/drive/etc).
A worst case (it gives all backup-data, active and inactive) could be "q occ
