Certain options, such as SUBDIR, PRESERVEPATH, IFNEWER, REPLACE, and source and destination file specs are preserved; but other options such as QUIET or RESOURCEUTILIZATION do not appear to be preserved.
The reference information for RESTART RESTORE says this: > The restarted restore uses the same options that you used in the failed > restore. The restarted restore continues from the point at which the > restore previously failed. If you open a PMR with support, we can address this in a more formal manner. Whether we adjust the code to preserve other options (my personal preferred outcome) or adjust the documentation to be more specific, will remain to be determined.
