The only command line option used by frecover with this option is -f . The values in path override all other options to frecover . Note also that only full recoveries are restarted with this option, because no history of include or exclude lists is stored in the restart file. Each entry of a configuration file consists of an action identifier followed by a separator followed by the specified action. Valid action identifiers are error , chgvol , and sync .
Separators can be either tabs or spaces.
The maximum number of resynchronization attempts is five. There is no limit on how many times the -e option can be specified. If device is - , frecover reads from standard input. If more than one output file is specified, frecover uses each one successively and then repeats in a cyclical pattern. The expansion of the pattern results in all matching names being in the list of devices used.
