== Restore Backups ==

To restore a backup try something like:

duplicity restore -t 7D --restore-time <yyyy/mm/dd --file-to-restore <source/path/to/restore/from> scp://sugarbackup@backup.sugarlabs.org/backup/<machine.sugarlabs.org> </destination/path/to/restore/to>

* Replace <> with your values


Example:

duplicity restore -t 7D --restore-time 2000/01/01 --file-to-restore var/lib/mysql/wordpress scp://sugarbackup@backup.sugarlabs.org/backup/sunjammer.sugarlabs.org /home/bernie/restore/wordpress


the --restore-time is a workaround for a bug in duplicity when restoring backups in the past
