In some cases, it might be necessary to extract files generated by the
NDMP host by first restoring the NAS backup to a NDMP Plugin host
machine, then using programs such as restore or tar on the
restored data stream. For that purpose, select the respective NDMP
data stream (not the individual files, in case use_hist is applied)
and the where= option with the following format, i.e. with a
greater-than sign directly followed by the absolute target path on the
FD host:
* restore where=">/tmp"
NDMP files would then be extracted to the local /tmp/ directory.
Note
The quotes in the above example must be used only when using command line argument, they are not needed when editing options via the restore menu.
