It is less likely that someone inadvertently terminates the restore command.
If you enter a restore command on the console, it could be terminated by a
Ctrl-C entered on a host connected to the filer using telnet.
However, if you enter the restore command on the console, you can read and
respond to screen messages displayed by the command. For example, the command
might prompt you for another tape to complete the recovery.

The restore command does not restore qtree information. For example, if you
need to restore a volume or a part of a volume that contains qtrees, you must first
create the qtrees into which data is to be restored.

Follow these steps to fully restore a volume containing qtrees:
1. Obtain the re cord of the qtree information as of the last volume backup.
2. Create all qtrees according to the record.
3. Set the security style of each qtree to the value that is the same as when the vol-
ume was backed up.
4. If you want to recover the entire volume with one restore command, go to
Step 5. Using one restore command requires less time for recovering the
entire volume than using multiple restore commands.
If you want to use multiple restore command to recover all qtrees in the vol-
ume, go to Step 6. Using multiple restore commands enables you to quickly
recover those qtrees that are needed the most.
