Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/10.X/PHCO_24375

Symptoms:
	PHCO_24375:
	1) FIFO special files are not restored.
	2) Symbolic links are restored with incorrect
	   ownership and permissions.

	PHCO_16243:
	The "-s number" option of the vxrestore does not recover
	the specified dump on a tape containing multiple dumps.

Defect Description:
	PHCO_24375:
	1) vxrestore has no FIFO case in the switch() statement,
	   as a result, FIFO special files are not restored.
	2) When restoring symbolic links, vxrestore changes
	   the ownership and the permissions of the symbolic
	   link to that of the user running vxrestore.
	Resolution:
	1) Add the IFIFO case to the switch() statement.
	2) Save the ownership and umask of the
	   symbolic link before restoring it and
	   restore the ownership and permissions
	   after the link is restored.

	PHCO_16243:
	The "-s number" option of the vxrestore does not recover
	the specified dump on a tape containing multiple dumps.
	Vxrestore was always retrieving the dump at which the
	tape was currently positioned at.
