/usr/sbin/sysrestore[693]: test: 0403-004 Specify a parameter

Question:

Env:
  AIX 4.2.1
  RISC 43p
  sysback 4.1.3.2

Problem:
  I am able to create a backup using this syntax:

  mkdirback -xf /dev/fd0 /home/guest

  I then try to read the file using this syntax:

  sysrestore -Vf /dev/fd0 -tD

  Checking backup contents ..
/usr/sbin/sysrestore[693]: test: 0403-004 Specify a parameter 
                           with this command.

/usr/sbin/sysrestore[727]: test: 0403-004 Specify a parameter 
                           with this command.

Verify began Tue Nov  4 13:36:18 1997 - 0 megabytes to read.

Verify ended Tue Nov  4 13:36:18 1997 - 0 megabytes read 
from 1 volume(s).

Also within smit I got this error message:

smitty sysback
  Backup & Recovery Options

  /usr/sbin/sysrestore -NnV -f/dev/fd0 -t -vx

You must specify the list of data to be restored.
Usage: sysrestore {-f DeviceName}{-t D|F|L|R|V|B}[-nyFHLTV][-v|x]
        [-c term device][-h hostname][-i sequence][-D destination] data_list...

I am able to run these commands against the tape drive

sbread -H /dev/fd0

sbread /dev/fd0 | restore -Tvqf-

Fixed. Will be included in sysback.rte 4.1.3.3. This problem 
has apparently existed since initial 4.1!
