Restore Systemstate
Use the restore systemstate command to restore the backup of the system state stored on a Tivoli® Storage Manager server, or inside a backup set from a Tivoli Storage Manager server, when the backupsetname option is specified.
The Tivoli Storage Manager Windows client does not support the current commands for restoring individual startable system state components.
This command also restores ASR files for Windows clients that are running in a Windows Preinstallation Environment (WinPE); both BIOS and UEFI boot architectures are supported.
Supported Clients
This command is valid for all supported Windows clients.
