Re: Restore From IFS

Never mind. got it...just did a restore of the entire subdirectory since
nothing had changed since Monday a.m.'s backup and all is well.....

Looks like I learned something new on deleting a user profile, when it's
doing the checking if the profile you are deleting owns any objects, it
doesn't appear to check IFS objects (looks like it did for directories but
NOT files in those directories). I might be wrong but right now I don;t
care..............the world is spinning again......YEE HAW!!!!

I've got an issue where IFS files (in various directories) were deleted
yesterday when a user profile that "owned" them got deleted. I've got a
backup but just "not sure" on the restore, seems like I remember a
"gotcha". An example below of what I "think" I should do but since this
affects our web site (which is down because of the missing files) want to
double check with y'all. My question is: IF I run the below command will
it will "only" restore the filea.txt AND leave everything else in this
directory (and any subdirs) as is. I've just got a funny feeling that
there's a gotcha but can't confirm that anywhere.

I've got a BUNCH of these to do from looking at the DSPTAP from the IFS
Save and finding those owned by the user profile that was deleted, spread
across multiple directories that are used by our web site.
