Description Todd 2017-06-21 02:42:12 UTC

Dear Red Hat,

I am coming from the community: Scientific Linux 7.

Request for Enhancement:

Would one of our intrepid heroes please the implement following RFE for me:

When you have to use xfsrestore, you are usually under a lot of stress, and do not need to contend with other mysteries to solve.

When xfsrestore find a "interrupted restore sessions". please perompt the use to correct the situation, if he says yes, correc the problem, and continue witht he restore.

This will greatly cut down on the confusion the user experiences when they encounter an "interrupted restore session". 

Many thanks,
-T

This work needs to happen upstream first, and it simply hasn't risen to the top of the todo list; it won't be fixed in RHEL7.
