Hi All,

I apologize for my first message (see below) which was may be concise.
I 'd like to give herein some details.
I'm working on a Sun Enterprise E250 server with the Solaris 2.6 runing on.
In the pass, we used to backup and restore with the cpio commande
using the following directory: /disk1/DATABASE/DELT/*
Three years ago, we upgraded the server and reorganized the file systems.
Today, we use the directory /data/DELT to backup and restore files.
Right now, we need to restore an old backup archive created in
absolute pathname using the old directory path (i.e:
/disk1/DATABASE/DELT/) to the present location (/data/DELT).
The old backup command used was:
find /disk1/DATABASE/DELT/* -print | cpio -ouvB >/dev/rmt/0
We need to restore this archive to the present location /data/DELT
I need your precious help.
Thank you in advance
Regards
M Keita
