Specifying the destination for the restore job

In addition to specifying what to restore, you must also specify where to restore it. The destination can be one of the following:


When selecting your destination path, you are selecting the starting point at which SCO ARCserve/Open will begin building the rest of the destination path.

First, in the Destination area, you select the starting point for the destination path, that is select the client you are restoring to. Then, you specify a Directory Structure option (in the Destination Options dialog box), which completes the destination path.

After selecting the starting point on the destination, see ``Destination options'' for more information on Directory Structure options.
