Summary :
BRRESTORE, integral from SAPDBA Version 3.0, supports full database restoration, parallel restoration from multiple tape drives, and restoration to alternate directories. It can be used interactively or directly in older SAPDBA versions (<3.0) if errors occur. The tool restores entire or partial databases from offline or online BRBACKUP backups, including non-database files. It auto-creates subdirectories and restores Redo log files from BRARCHIVE. Key options include specifying log numbers, backup logs, device types, compression settings, output details, and file paths. Integration with SAPDBA involves new parameters such as `cpio_in_flags`, `uncompress_cmd`, and `tape_pos_cmd`.
