|
era_restore - restore era metadata file to device or file.
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
era_restore [options] -i {xml file} -o {device|file}
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
era_restore restores era metadata created by the respective device-mapper
|
|
target dumped into an XML formatted (see era_dump(8)) file, which
|
|
optionally can be preprocessed before the restore to another device or
|
|
file. If restored to a metadata device, the metadata can be processed by
|
|
the device-mapper target.
|
|
|
|
This tool cannot be run on live metadata.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-h, --help Print help and exit.
|
|
-V, --version Print version information and exit.
|
|
-q, --quiet Don't print any output. Check the exit code to test for success.
|
|
-i, --input {xml file} Specify input file containing xml metadata.
|
|
-o, --output {device|file} Output device or file for restored binary metadata.
|
|
|
|
If a file is used, then it must be preallocated, and large enough to hold
|
|
the metadata.
