show content (files/directories) off a backup
---------------------------------------------

.. code:: console

  # ls -la /mnt/clients/client1-fd/backups/jobid\=887_level\=F_status\=T/data/
  ...

restore files from a backup job
-------------------------------

Triggering restore is implemented using Extended Attributes.
This prevents, that a normal read access triggers a restore job.
To trigger a restore, set the extended attribute ``user.bareos.do`` of a file or directory  to ``restore``.

Note:
  * the mount parameter ``restoreclient`` is required for this operation. Otherwise you get a EPERM error.
  * the mount parameter ``restorejob`` is required, if you have more then one restore job defined.

Example for restoring all files of a full backup job:

.. code:: console

  # cd /mnt/clients/client1-fd/backups/jobid\=887_level\=F_status\=T/data/
  # getfattr -d .
  user.bareos.do
  user.bareos.do_options="mark | restore"
  user.bareos.restored="no"
  user.bareos.restorepath="/var/cache/bareosfs//jobid=887"
  # setfattr -n user.bareos.do -v restore .
  # getfattr -d .
  user.bareos.do="restore"
  user.bareos.do_options="mark | restore"
  user.bareos.restore_job_id="913"
  user.bareos.restored="yes"
  user.bareos.restorepath="//var/cache/bareosfs//jobid=887"


Files are now readable and links show there destination.

Instead of restoring all files and directories from the backup, you can set the "restore" value on individual files.
Each set will trigger a separate restore job.


Alternative: mount command
--------------------------

The ``baroes-fuse`` packages do also contain the ``mount.bareosfs`` link.
Using this, the normal mount command can be used:

.. code:: console

  mount -t bareosfs -o address=localhost,password=secret,logfile=/var/log/bareosfs.log fuse /mnt
