When you say the trigger should be restored with the file, do you mean the DB trigger event (TRGLIB parm) , or the trigger program (PGM parm), or both?
The trigger name and event information is stored as an attribute of the file.
If the file and trigger program are in the same library and you RSTLIB they will be restored together.
If you restore a file with triggers to a library other than the original library the triggers will be marked as inoperative unless both the file and the trigger are restored to the new library. This has to be done as part of the same restore operation.
If they are in separate libraries you should ensure the trigger program is restored first although the system doesn't care until the trigger is fired so you can do it in a different order.
Of course, the above presumes you are restoring on a system where these objects no longer exist or are damaged beyond use. If you are just trying to recover the previous state of the file and the trigger program is still OK then you do not need to restore the trigger program.
Read the Backup and Recovery manual for more information regarding restoring files with triggers.
