Instructions
The NetWorker Command Reference Guide recover command section indicates the -a option is not supported with the -R option. The execution of the recover command with the -R and -a option completes successfully with no interactive browsing from the NetWorker Server.
Example syntax for the recover command on the NetWorker Server:
recover -a -c linux_source_client.mydomain.com -d /tmp/myrestore -R linux_target_client.mydomain.com -s networker_server.mydomain.com /etc/hosts
The above syntax is incorrect. You cannot specify -R remote_machine while using the -a flag.
