Using Commands That Execute in the Background

· bak dump

· bak labeltape

· bak restoredb

· bak restoredisk

· bak restoreft

· bakrestoreftfamily

· bak savedb

· bak scantape

As soon as you enter a command that executes in the background, the prompt at which you entered the command returns to the screen. The command continues to execute, but you can enter additional commands at the prompt while it executes. When you enter a command that does not execute in the background, the prompt does not return until the command is finished executing. (See the appropriate sections in this topic and in Configuring the Backup System for more information about these commands.)
