NetBackup™ for OpenStack Administrator's Guide

Required restore.json file for CLI

The nbosjm client CLI uses a restore.json file to define the restore parameters for the selective and the in-place restore.

An example for a selective restore of this restore.json is shown below. A detailed analysis and explanation is given afterwards.

The restore.json requires information about the backed-up resources. All required information can be gathered in the recovery point overview.
