You are correct and someone else who report STD being FOS on
6.5 was wrong. On &.5 you need a patch MPELXG2 (current GR
superseder MPEMXJ6 ) to get this enhancement.

If you have Powerpatches C6503 or C6504 installed, then this
patch should have been installed as well.

No, RESTORE from disk archives has always been part of FOS, since
the introduction in 5.5 days.
