-e(5.2.4 and later) Used in conjunction with -t and -s, this parameter allows you to specify the end time
(endTime) of the data restore range. Used to restore a past range of data.
-s(5.2.4 and later) Used in conjunction with -t and -s, this parameter allows you to specify the path

area from which you can restore a past range of data.

-r 1(5.2.4 and later) Used in conjunction with modes 3 and 4 only. Skips restoring the OS binary; instead
only the configuration and dynamic data is restored. Because the version used to write out the archive
for a particular time slice may predate the version most recently stored on the NFS server, these modes
prevent MARS from overwriting the OS installed in the appliance to read the specified time slice's data.

Modification
Mode 5 appears (-m 5 option).
End time (-e), stage path area (-s), and -r 1 options appear.
Note
Mode 5 restores from a backup in the local database; you cannot use it to restore from
a NFS archive. As such, you not need to have archiving enabled to perform this restore
operation. The configuration data is backed up every night on the appliance. Beware that
if you upgrade to a newer release and attempt a restore before that configuration has
been backed up, the restore will fail.
