IBM Tivoli Storage Manager, Version 7.1

Pittime

Use the pittime option with the pitdate option to establish a point in time to display or restore the latest version of your backups.

Files that were backed up on or before the date and time you specify, and which were not deleted before the date and time you specify, are processed. Backup versions that you create after this date and time are ignored. This option is ignored if you do not specify pitdate option.

Use the pittime option with the following commands:

delete backup
query asr
query backup
query image
query nas
query systemstate
query vm(vmbackuptype=fullvm and vmbackuptype=hypervfull)
restore
restore image
restore nas
restore systemstate
restore vm (vmbackuptype=fullvm and vmbackuptype=hypervfull)

Supported Clients

This option is valid for all clients. The Tivoli® Storage Manager client API does not support this option.
