Select to indicate that you want to grant access rights to the TSM files on the current TSM node to all users or to the users specified.
Specify the names of the users to which access rights are to be granted. To grant access rights to all users, type ALL. Granting access to users gives them access for all current and future files related to the database specified.
Specify the TSM node for which access rights will be changed.
Removes access rights to the TSM files on the current TSM node from the users specified once the restore operation is complete.
Specify to restore the entire database.

This option is only available if you have selected an incremental backup image to restore. By default, all required backups from the last full backup image to the selected backup image will be restored. Select this option when you want only the selected backup image restored. Specifying this may reduce the time necessary for the backup, but the database may be in an inconsistent state after the restore operation.
Specify the type of media on which the backup image will reside.
Specify the location of the backup image.
Opens a window so that you can add items to the list.

Shows the partition number of each database partition to be restored.
Shows the host name of each database partition to be restored.
Specifies that you want the selected partitions to be a group. By default, the catalog partition is restored first, and then all other partitions are restored in parallel. If you have many partitions, you can put them into separate groups to be restored serially.
Specifies that you want to remove the grouping of the partitions.
Optional: Select for a redirected restore operation. During a redirected restore operation, directory and file containers are automatically created if they do not already exist. The database manager does not automatically create device containers.
Select to allow for the creation of new containers as part of the roll-forward.
Specify the image that contains the table space containers that you want to modify.
Specify the table space container that contains the table spaces that you want to modify.

Select to restore to the end of the chosen backup images. If selected, changes made subsequent to the last backup will be lost.
Select to restore changes made subsequent to the last database backup. This option uses the archive logs to create a more up-to-date restore.
Select to restore all changes recorded in the logs. This is the default.
Select to restore to a specific date and time using the server machine's local time zone setting. By default, the date and time that the last restore operation completed is shown. To restore to a different point in time, use the date and time controls to modify the settings.
Select to restore to a specific date and time using Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). By default, the date and time that the last restore operation completed is shown. To restore to a different point in time, use the date and time controls to modify the settings.
Use the Date field to specify the date to which you want to roll forward.
You can either type the date, or you can click the arrow to open a calendar on which you select the date. Click the arrows at the top of the calendar to display the month that you want, then click a date to select it. The calendar closes, and the date you selected will be displayed in the field.
Use the Time field to specify the time to which you want to roll forward. To change the time, click on the portion of the time that you want to change and either type the value that you want, or use the up and down arrows to adjust the value.
If you are rolling forward to a point in time, the time must be between the next transaction and last transaction times.
Select if all logs are stored in the default location and that you have not stored any logs in an alternate location.
Select if you store any log files in alternate locations.
Select if you want the retrieval of log files to be disabled. The rollforward operation will not invoke the user exit program to retrieve log file, even if the database is configured with the USEREXIT parameter enabled.
Specifies that you want to leave the database in rollforward pending state so that you can continue to make changes to the restore operation. A database or a table space that is in rollforward pending state cannot be used until it has been returned to active state.
Specifies that after the database is rolled forward it will returned to active state. This makes the database usable immediately after the restore operation completes.
The restore operation occurs offline (that is, no other application or user can be connected to the database or database partition when the restore operation is in progress). This is the default.
Specifies that the restore operation occurs online. This means that other agents can connect to the database while the backup image is being restored, and that the data in other table spaces will be available while the specified table spaces are being restored.
Select to quiesce the database. When a database is quiesced, all users are forced off the database and all units of work are rolled back. Users are not allowed to reconnect to the database until the database is unquiesced. Note: There are exceptions. Users with SYSADM, SYSMAINT, SYSCTRL or quiesce_connect authority can still connect. This option should be used only when you are performing an offline restore.
Select if the database or table space being restored contains tables with DATALINK columns.
Specifies that any tables with DATALINK columns are to be put in DataLink_Reconcile_Pending (DRP) state, and that no reconciliation of linked files is to be performed.
Specifies the file that will contain information about the files that are unlinked during the restore operation. The name must be fully qualified, for example, /u/abole/report. The restore operation appends a .ulk extension to the specified file name, for example, report.ulk.
Specifies that the restore operation should replace the history file on the disk with the history file from the backup image.
Specifies that only the set of log files contained in the backup image are restored.
Enter the absolute path name of an existing directory on the database server, to be used as the target directory for extracting log files from a backup image.
The restore operation occurs offline (that is, no other application or user can be connected to the database or database partition when the restore operation is in progress). This is the default.
Specifies that the restore operation occurs online. This means that other agents can connect to the database while the backup image is being restored, and that the data in other table spaces will be available while the specified table spaces are being restored.
Specifies the number of buffer manipulators to be spawned during the restore process. The value should be equal to the number of processes or threads that are started when reading data from the database. Note: Each process or thread requires both memory and CPU overhead. On a heavily loaded system, keep the parallelism value at its default value of 1.
Specify the number of buffers that are used for the backup operation. The default is 2. The valid range is from 2 - 16 384. If you use multiple buffers and I/O channels, you should use at least twice as many buffers as channels to ensure that the channels do not have to wait for data.
Specify the size of each buffer in 4 KB pages. The default is 1024. The range is from 16 - 524 288. The restore buffer size must be a positive integer multiple of the backup buffer size specified during the backup operation. If an incorrect buffer size is specified, the buffers allocated will be the smallest acceptable size.
If you have modified the values for the Parallelism, Number of Buffers and Size of Buffers fields, Recommend resets the values to those recommended by the wizard.
