<para>
<command>rdautorest</command><manvolnum>8</manvolnum> is a command-line
tool used for restoring backups of the data for the Rivendell Radio
Automation System produced by
<command>rdautoback</command><manvolnum>8</manvolnum>.
</para>
<para>
<command>rdautorest</command><manvolnum>8</manvolnum> takes one required
argument: the name of a storage mount point that has been configured
in <command>fstab</command><manvolnum>5</manvolnum>. Upon startup,
<command>rdautorest</command><manvolnum>8</manvolnum> will attempt to
mount the specified mount point and restore the following data elements:
</para>
<itemizedlist mark="opencircle">
<listitem>
<para>
The Rivendell database specified by the current
<command>rd.conf</command><manvolnum>5</manvolnum>
configuration file.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
The contents of the Rivendell audiostore, located at
<computeroutput>/var/snd</computeroutput>.
</para>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
<para>
Any Rivendell data that is already present on the target system
will be incrementally updated so as to be a precise copy of the
backed-up data. After completing the restoration,
<command>rdautorest</command><manvolnum>8</manvolnum> will automatically
unmount the backup device and remove its mount point.
</para>
<para>
By default <command>rdautorest</command><manvolnum>8</manvolnum> will
print a warning and require confirmation before proceeding with the
restoration. This prompt can be bypassed by providing the
<userinput>--yes</userinput> option.
