An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for recovering multivolume
data. In one embodiment, a backup module physically backs up a plurality
of source volumes to plurality of backup volumes. A data set size module
may also capture a data set size for a data set during the physical
backup. A retrieval module retrieves metadata for the data set from a
catalog. A location module locates the data set on the plurality of
backup volumes using the metadata. A recovery module recovers the data
set as a recovered data set from the plurality of backup volumes. In one
embodiment, a verification module verifies that the recovered data set is
successfully recovered.
