The steps required to recover a DR image performed with the Plug-in Live Client for Linux® vary based on how the data was originally managed during backup. The following topics cover the processes required to complete each of these steps.
As noted in the previous topic, you must first set up a recovery job for a Linux® NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client from the NetVault Backup WebUI on the NetVault Backup Server. You must also start this job before you try to boot the Linux NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client with the created CD.

NOTE: If a disk is comprised of four primary partitions, the fourth partition is automatically converted to an extended logical partition during the recovery. Having a fourth primary partition inhibits the ability to add more partitions to the disk later. By converting the fourth partition to a logical one, you can use additional space on a hard disk to create future partitions, for example, if the recovery is being performed to disk that is larger than the original. There is no data loss associated with this behavior. You are alerted to this fact during the boot routine in a dialog box of the System Installation for Linux; for details on this process, see Booting the target NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client with the appropriate OS and drivers for use with Plug-in Live Client for Linux. |
