You must specify an file name, pattern, or folder to copy from.
If you give a file name or a TOS wildcard pattern (a name with
`*'s and `?'), all matching files will be copied, depending on the
`Copy subfolders' switch. For example, E:\
FOO will copy all the
files in E:\
and its subfolders named FOO. If you give just a
foldername, all the files in that folder and its subfolders will
be copied. Usually you will be restoring entire folders, in which
case you only need to give the name of the folder to restore from.
Be sure to start your name with the letter of the drive to copy
from, for example A: or B:.
When restoring files backed up by The Vault, you will need to
decide which folders to restore from. For example, if you just did a
full backup to folder E, then the root directory of the floppy
will contain only one folder named E.FUL, and all of the files
and folders backed up will be contained in it. To restore those
files, you should type A:\
E.FUL on the ``input" line. If you are
restoring from an incremental backup, there will be folders with
names like E.001, E.002, etc. This is because a new folder is
created each time you run an incremental backup. Typing A:\
E.002
will restore those files saved during the second incremental
backup. If you are in doubt about which folder to restore from,
look on the backup disk or in the backup history file
_BACKUP.HST.
