For TSM restores that will be from tape, I am discovering that RESTORE -FILELIST is a whole lot faster for restores of multiple files than RESTORE <filespec with wildcard>. So I'm building a script to run QUERY BACKUP and then turn those results into a form for RESTORE -FILELIST. The performance difference is dramatic - several hours for RESTORE <filespec> compared to 5-20 minutes for RESTORE -FILELIST. I am wondering why this is as I exploit this technique.
