Booting the target server

Previous Next



Booting the target server

For vRanger to detect the target server, the target server must be booted into the vRanger restore environment and have a valid IP address. The vRanger Restore image is configured to use Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) by default. If you are using static IP, some additional steps are required.

This task is a procedure in Performing a full restore from manifest for a physical machine.

To boot the target server, complete one of the following procedures:

Booting into the restore environment using DHCP

Complete the steps in the following procedure to boot into the vRanger restore environment using DHCP.

To boot into the restore environment using DHCP:

When the boot is complete, a list of available network devices and their connection status appears.

If no DHCP server is detected, each Ethernet device shows as “Disconnected.” Select the preferred network device. If only one device is present, it is automatically selected. Press Enter to select the highlighted network interface. You are then prompted to select either Use DHCP, which attempts to obtain an IP address again, or Configure Static IP.
3
[Optional] If the vRestore environment does not contain the correct drivers for your hardware, enter a Linux® command prompt by pressing F1, and add them manually.
Booting into the restore environment using static IP

Complete the steps in the following procedure to boot into the vRanger restore environment using a static IP address.

To boot into the restore environment using static IP:

When the boot is complete, a list of available network devices and their connection status appears. If no DHCP server is detected, each Ethernet device shows as “Disconnected.”

If only one device is present, it is automatically selected.

3
Press Enter to select the highlighted network interface.

You are then prompted to select either Use DHCP, which attempts to obtain an IP address again, or Configure Static IP.

5
In the Setting Static IP dialog box, enter the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway information, and then select Submit.

The target server is configured with the selected IP information.
