Hello,
I have a question concering a legato client restore.

Our clients have core solaris so we cant run the nwrecover gui to
restore the data.

Our server can run the gui, question is we can recover the data from a
client to the server by logging onto the server and running

nwrecover -c <client> -s <server>

But the file is restore to the server.

Can you recover the files to the original location on the client
somehow from the server?

If not the only option we have then is command line recover from the
client.

Thanks

Use the relocation sub-command.
And RTFM is recommended.

I have used relocation before, but can you restore to a different
system? so in the relocation tab on the sever gui you would put

<clientname>:/

For example to restore everything?

I don't believe so.  'recover' now supports remote relocation with the
-R command, but I think it's not supported by the GUI.

Which should work well, or you could use the command line on the server
if your 'recover' supports the -R option.
