I have a file in unix with sample data as follows :
Code:
--------------------------------------------------------------

{30001002|XXparameter|!prototype_path|E:\\program files\\Ab Initio 1438\\Components\\Datasets\\main|3|2|Pw$|@{0|}}
-------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------
{30001002|XXparameter|metadata||7|8|RF=||{0|}}
{30001002|XXparameter|Layout|$[[record kind 85 subkind 0 parts 
{30001002|XXparameter|!prototype_path|E:\\program files\\Ab Initio 1438\\Components\\Datasets\\tag|3|2|Pw$|@{0|}}
-------------------------------------------------------

cache_restore

CACHE_RESTORE(8)					      System Manager's Manual						  CACHE_RESTORE(8)

NAME

       cache_restore - restore cache metadata file to device or file

SYNOPSIS

       cache_restore [options] -i {device|file} -o {device|file}

DESCRIPTION

       cache_restore  restores cache metadata created by the respective device-mapper target dumped into an XML formatted (see cache_dump(8)) file
       , which optionally can be preprocessed before the restore to another device or file.  If restored to a metadata device , the  metadata  can
       be processed by the device-mapper target.

       -i, --input {device|file}
	      Input file or device with metadata.

       -o, --output {device|file}
	      Output file or device.

       {--debug-override-metadata-version} <integer>
	      ONLY FOR DEBUGGING PURPOSES:
	      override the version stored in the metadata.

       -h, --help
	      Print help and exit.

       -V, --version
	      Output version information and exit.

EXAMPLE

       Restores  the  XML  formatted  cache  metadata on file metadata to logical volume /dev/vg/metadata for further processing by the respective
       device-mapper target:

       cache_restore -i metadata -o /dev/vg/metadata

DIAGNOSTICS

       cache_restore returns an exit code of 0 for success or 1 for error.
