List of storage spaces in a file

You can list storage spaces to back up or restore in a file.

The filename value can be any valid UNIX or Windows file name:

  • Simple file names, for example: listfile_1)
  • Relative file names, for example: ../backup_lists/listfile_2 or ..\backup_lists\listfile2
  • absolute file names, for example: /usr//backup_lists/listfile3 or c:\\backup_lists\listfile3

The format rules for the file are:

  • If you are restoring chunks, list storage space names without paths. Each line can list more than one storage space, separated by spaces or a tab.
  • If you are renaming chunks, list the old chunk path name, the old offset, the new chunk path name, and the new offset. Put a blank space or a tab between each item. Put information for each chunk on a separate line.
  • Comments begin with a # or a ; symbol and continue to the end of the current line.
  • ON-Bar ignores all comment or blank lines in the file.
