Restore command
Does the restore command run very very slow? I am trying to do restore some files, there is practically nobody else on the system. System is idle 99% of the time, but still my files are not found yet. I have been running this command for almost 6 hours. We have an AIX/UNIX 5.1 machine. The command I used is
restore -xvqf /dev/rmt0 /db/uci/xxx* where "xxx" is the prefix for my filenames. I am in '/db/uci' directory.
Is there a better way to restore files? Also, is there any way to find out where the job is currently?
Thank you in advance.
