NAME

       gm-restore - restoring a GNUmed database

SYNOPSIS

       gm-restore <backup>

       <backup>: a database backup file ("backup-gnumed_vX-*.tar.bz2") created by gm-backup

DESCRIPTION

       The  gm-restore script attempts to recreate from scratch the backed up GNUmed database. It
       tries to be very conservative.

       It is intended for interactive use by root and may have to be adjusted to your needs.

KNOWN PROBLEMS

       Note that for some reason restoring does not work when  the  backup  file  you  intend  to
       restore is a link to the actual backup. Use the full path instead.
