NAME
       xfs_mdrestore - restores an XFS metadump image to a filesystem image

SYNOPSIS
       xfs_mdrestore [ -g ] source target

DESCRIPTION
       xfs_mdrestore is a debugging tool that restores a metadata image gener‐
       ated by xfs_metadump(8) to a filesystem. The source argument  specifies
       the  location  of  the metadump image and the target argument specifies
       the destination for the filsystem image.	 If the source is -, then  the
       metadata image is read from stdin. This allows the output of be another
       program	such  as  a  compression  application  to  be  redirected   to
       xfs_mdrestore.  The target can be either a file or a device.

       xfs_mdrestore  should  not be used to restore metadata onto an existing
       filesystem  unless  you	are  completely	 certain  the  target  can  be
       destroyed.

OPTIONS
       -g     Shows restore progress on stdout.

DIAGNOSTICS
       xfs_mdrestore returns an exit code of 0 if all the metadata is success‐
       fully restored or 1 if an error occurs.
