Object is specified as the filename within - the current directory, and local filename is optional. Ignores old and - deleted files when searching the directory for the file to retrieve. - - To get an old or deleted file, use the -i option and select the object - as a hex object ID (first column in listing). The local filename must - be specified. -< - -> compare -a -compare -l <location-name> -compare <store-dir-name> <local-dir-name> - - Compares the (current) data on the store with the data on the disc. - All the data will be downloaded -- this is potentially a very long - operation. - - -a -- compare all locations - -l -- compare one backup location as specified in the configuration file. - -c -- set return code - -q -- quick compare.

The local directory specified - must not exist (unless a previous restore is being restarted). If the - local directory is omitted, the default is to restore to the same - directory name and path, relative to the current local directory, - as set with the "lcd" command. - - The root cannot be restored -- restore locations individually. - - -d -- restore a deleted directory or deleted files inside - -r -- resume an interrupted restoration - -i -- directory name is actually an ID - -f -- force restore to continue if errors are encountered - - If a restore operation is interrupted for any reason, it can be restarted - using the -r switch. Restore progress information is saved in a file at - regular intervals during the restore operation to allow restarts. -< - -> getobject <object-id> <local-filename> - - Gets the object specified by the object id (in hex) and stores the raw - contents in the local file specified. - - This is only useful for debugging as it does not decode files from the - stored format, which is encrypted and compressed. -< - -> usage [-m] - - Show space used on the server for this account. - - -m -- display the output in machine-readable form - - Used: Total amount of space used on the server. - Old files: Space used by old files - Deleted files: Space used by deleted files - Directories: Space used by the directory structure. - - When Used exceeds the soft limit, the server will start to remove old and - deleted files until the usage drops below the soft limit. - - After a while, you would expect to see the usage stay at just below the - soft limit. You only need more space if the space used by old and deleted - files is near zero. -< - -> undelete <directory-name> -undelete -i <object-id> - - Removes the deleted flag from the specified directory name (in the - current directory) or hex object ID. Be careful not to use this - command where a directory already exists with the same name which is - not marked as deleted. -< - -> delete <file-name> - - Sets the deleted flag on the specified file name (in the current - directory, or with a relative path). -< - -> quit - - End session and exit. -< - - |
