The Restore Object (QsrRestore) API restores a copy of one or more objects that can be used in the integrated file system.
You can use the following special values for the library name. It should be noted, however, that the library name that is actually used is not passed back to the user. Care should be taken when you use these special values to avoid unexpected results.
| *CURLIB | The job's current library is used to locate the user space. If no library is specified as the current library for the job, the QGPL library is used. |
| *LIBL | The library list is used to locate the user space. |
The structure in which to return error information. For the format of the structure, see Error code parameter
The following defines the format for the information in the user space. For detailed descriptions of the fields in the user space format, see Field Descriptions.
| Offset | Type | Field | |

| CHAR(*) | Data | ||
If the length of the data is longer than the key identifier's data length, the data will be truncated at the right. No message will be issued.
If the specified data length is shorter than the key field's defined data length, an error message is returned for binary fields. If the field is a character field, the data is padded with blanks and an error message will not be returned.
Note: This does not apply to keys that allow a list of values to be specified. In these cases, the amount of data read is based on the specified number of entries in the list.
If keys are duplicated in the user space, only the last value for a given key is used for the restore operation.
Each variable length record must be 4-byte aligned. If not, unpredictable results may occur.
Data. The data used to specify the value for the given key.
Key. The parameter of the Restore Object (RST) command to specify. See Valid Keys for the list of valid keys.
Offset to first record. The offset from the beginning of the user space to the first variable length record.
Offset to next record. The offset from the beginning of the user space to the next variable length record.
Number of variable length records. The number of variable
length records that are passed in the user space. The valid range is from 2
through 22.
Reserved. This field should contain x'00's.
The following table lists the valid keys for the key field area of the variable length record. For detailed descriptions of the keys, see the Field Descriptions.
Some messages for this API refer to parameters and values of the Restore Object (RST) command. This table can also be used to locate the key names that correspond to the RST command parameters. The field descriptions contain, in addition to detailed descriptions, the corresponding parameter values.

The default is 0. The possible values are:
| 0 | No differences are allowed between the saved
object and the restored object. If 0 is specified for the allow object
difference field, 1 must be specified for the number in array field.
(*NONE) If an object already exists on the system with a different owner or primary group than the saved object, the object is not restored. If the saved object had an authorization list and the object exists on the system but does not have the same authorization list, the object is not restored. If the saved object had an authorization list and the object does not exist and it is being restored to a different system than the save system, the object is restored, but it is not linked to the authorization list, and the public authority is set to *EXCLUDE. |
| 1 | All differences are allowed between the saved
object and the restored object. If 1 is specified for the allow object
difference field, 1 must be specified for the number in array field.
(*ALL) If an object already exists on the system with a different owner or primary group than the saved object, the object is restored with the existing values. If the saved object had an authorization list and the object exists on the system but does not have the same authorization list, the object is restored with the authorization list of the existing object. If the saved object had an authorization list and the object does not exist and it is being restored to a different system than the save system, the object is restored and it is linked to the authorization list. If the authorization list does not exist, the public authority of the object is set to *EXCLUDE. |
| 2 | Authorization list differences are allowed. (*AUTL)
If the saved object had an authorization list and the object exists on the system but does not have the same authorization list, the object is restored with the authorization list of the existing object. If the saved object had an authorization list and the object does not exist and it is being restored to a different system than the save system, the object is restored and it is linked to the authorization list. If the authorization list does not exist, the public authority of the object is set to *EXCLUDE. |
| 3 | Ownership differences are allowed. (*OWNER)
If an object already exists on the system with a different owner than the saved object, the object is restored with the existing value. |
| 4 | Primary group differences are allowed. (*PGP)
If an object already exists on the system with a different primary group than the saved object, the object is restored with the existing value. |

if it does not exist and then will be mounted over the same directory
it was mounted over during the save.
If a user-defined file system is created during the restore, the attributes will be set based on the saved user-defined file system including any user-defined file system specific attributes such as 'Case sensitivity' or 'Default file format'. If the user-defined file system exists before the restore, no attributes will be changed. If there is an error creating or mounting a user-defined file system, none of the objects that were saved from the mounted user-defined file system will be restored. (*UDFS) Note:If it does not exist before the restore, the directory that is being mounted over will be created with attributes and authorities copied from the directory being restored into. This could cause problems when the user-defined file system is unmounted and then remounted, if the authorities are not sufficient to allow the mount to occur. |
Save date. The date the objects were saved.
