Extract by inode numbers rather than by filename to avoid regenerating complete pathnames. Regardless of where the files are located in the dump hierarchy, they are restored into the current directory and renamed with their inode number. This is useful if only a few files are being extracted. Do not ask whether to abort the restore in the event of tape errors. Interactive Commands ufsrestore enters interactive mode when invoked with the i option.
Interactive commands are reminiscent of the shell.
For those commands that accept an argument, the default is the current directory. Add the named file or directory to the list of files to extract. Delete the current directory, or the named file or directory from the list of files to extract. The most expedient way to extract a majority of files from a directory is to add that directory to the extraction list, and then delete specific files to omit. The fastest way to extract a small number of files is to start with the last volume and work toward the first.
