FABSYS_RESTORE-START(1)

NAME
fabsys_restore-start - Create a new restore request

SYNOPSIS
fabsys restore-start --dump-id <dump_id> [--path <path>]
                 [--note <note>] [--admin] [--user <user>]

DESCRIPTION
The fabsys restore-start command creates a new request to restore a volume from backup.

OPTIONS

--dump-id <dump_id>
    The dump id to restore. Dump ids can be found by using the "fabsys_dump-find(1)" command.

--path <path>
    This specifies the path that a user requested to restore, if this request is for an end-user that was requested via a path. This is used just for informational purposes for informing users of what data they were trying to restore.

--note <note>
    This adds a free-form note to be associated with this restore request. If none is provided, the default note just indicates the restore request was initiated manually from the command line.

--admin
    This flag indicates that the request is being performed by an administrator, and so authorization checks are bypassed.

--user user
    This flag indicates the restore request is being done for a user. Authorization checks are performed to ensure that the user is permitted to restore the requested volume.

PRIVILEGED REQUIRED
The issuer of this command must be able to read the FABS configuration (specifically, the database access information), typically in /etc/fabs/fabs.yaml.d/.
