The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
Used to be that during the first part of a restore the system would
read the header of the library/object from tape, then (as far as I
know) allocate enough disk space to hold the object(s). Once that
was done, it would read the data from tape (at (apparently) full
speed), and write it into the allocated space.
Since you're deleting the old library, the system needs to allocate
space all over again, so it will take some time.
Since you don't know which objects they deleted over the week, maybe
you could try a user exit (or parameter validation) program on the
DLTOBJ command (well, the individual delete commands)-- log the
object/library to a file. When you receive the tapes, delete those
objects using the log file, then restore the tapes over the existing
libraries.
My perception of how things work could be off, but those are the
chances I take.
