Rapid Recovery 6.4 - Release Notes

BMR for disk-level agentless backups on Linux

BMR for disk-level agentless backups on Linux

Rapid Recovery continues to enhance its Linux support by adding the ability to perform bare metal restore at the disk level of recovery points from agentlessly protected Hyper-V backups.

When using the Rapid Recovery Core console to perform the BMR, you can connect to the Linux Live DVD, and choose and map disks to restore.

Support for many disk-level volumes for Linux BMR

Previously, when performing bare metal restore from the local_mount command line utility, volumes were identified by the drive letter, using alphabetic English characters.

In Rapid Recovery release 6.4, disk-level volumes are now numbered. Instead of using a lettered designation to specify a disk volume, you can specify the numbered disk volume. This change enables you to exceed 26 volumes (a restriction based on 26 alphabetic English characters).

The former command line syntax to restore using local_mount was:
mount <machine_line_item_number> <base_image_recovery_point_line_number> <volume_letter> <path>, where

  • <machine_line_item_number> is derived from running lm output
  • the recovery point line number and volume letter are derived from the lettered list of volumes within the recovery point
  • path is the file descriptor for the actual volume.

When variables are replaced with sample values, this command appears as: mount 36 5 a /dev/sda1

Now in the command line you should specify the volume number, not letter. Thus the proper command to restore is now: r 36 5 1 /dev/sda1
