xfs_mdrestore(8)	     System Manager's Manual		xfs_mdrestore(8)

NAME
     xfs_mdrestore - restores an XFS metadump image to a filesystem image

SYNOPSIS
     xfs_mdrestore [ -g ] source target
     xfs_mdrestore -V

DESCRIPTION
     xfs_mdrestore  is a debugging tool that restores a metadata image generated
     by xfs_metadump(8) to a filesystem. The source argument specifies the loca-
     tion of the metadump image and the target argument specifies  the	destina-
     tion for the filesystem image.  If the source is -, then the metadata image
     is  read from stdin. This allows the output of be another program such as a
     compression application to be redirected to xfs_mdrestore.  The target  can
     be either a file or a device.

     xfs_mdrestore  should  not  be  used  to  restore metadata onto an existing
     filesystem unless you are completely certain the target can be destroyed.

OPTIONS
     -g     Shows restore progress on stdout.

     -V     Prints the version number and exits.

DIAGNOSTICS
     xfs_mdrestore returns an exit code of 0 if all the metadata is successfully
     restored or 1 if an error occurs.

SEE ALSO
