HP Data Protector A.06.11 Command Line Interface Manual page 369

By default, or if the -overwrite option is specified, the already existent files
on the disk are overwritten by the restored files.
-no_overwrite
If the -no_overwrite option is specified, only the files that do not exist on the
disk are restored.
-move_busy
This option is used with the -omit_deleted_files or -overwrite option.
A problem can occur if, for example, a file to be overwritten cannot be deleted
because it is currently in use. If this option is specified, Data Protector moves
busy file filename to #filename on UNIX systems (adding a hash- mark in
front of the filename), or to filename.001 on Windows system. On UNIX
systems the original file can thus be deleted as the lock is transferred to the
corresponding file starting with the #sign. For example, /tmp/DIR1/DIR2/FILE
would be moved to /tmp/DIR1/DIR2/#FILE. On Windows system the
application only uses the newly-restored file after the file is restored and the
system is rebooted.
-omit_deleted_files
This option can be only used in combination with the -overwrite option.
If this option is specified, Data Protector attempts to recreate the state of the
restored directory tree as it was when the last incremental backup was run, while
preserving files that were created or modified after the last incremental backup.
However, if the directory contains files that did not exist there at the time of the
last incremental backup, but their modification time is older than the time of the
incremental backup, Data Protector will delete these files as well.
When this option is used in combination with the -as or -into option, be
careful when specifying the new location to prevent accidental deletion of existing
files.
If this option is not specified, when restoring a directory from which files were
deleted between a full and an incremental backup, these files are also restored.
The time on the Cell Manager and clients must be synchronized for this option
to function properly.
-variable var_name var_value
This option lets you specify a variable name and its value for proper operation
of some platforms and integrations. Setting user definable variables (a variable
name and its value) enables flexible operation on some platforms and integrations
with Data Protector. The list of variables and their values that are configurable
with Data Protector is dynamic and comes with Data Protector patches.
