Creating a Plug-in Offline Client Boot System

Before using the Plug-in Server, you must create a Plug-in Offline Client Boot System. This minimal OS loads to a target machine’s memory, rather than to its hard drive. This process leaves the hard drives inactive (offline) and in a suitable state for backup or restore. The Plug-in Offline Client is created on a writable CD. You can also boot from a LiveCD with the Plug-in Offline Client binaries on a separate device, such as a Universal Serial Bus (USB) device that uses the 3.0 protocol or earlier. This process is described in Creating a rescue device for use with a LiveCD.

Creating a Linux®-based Boot System

The following items are required for this procedure:
•
VaultOS ISO image — obtained through download
•
A writable DVD and CD-ROM drive
•
A blank DVD and CD
•
DVD- and CD-generation software
 
* 
NOTE: Dell recommends that you shut down all applications running on this machine before starting this procedure.
1
Download Plug-in Offline Client, VaultOS from the Dell website.
2
Note the name and location of this file, for example, “/home/vaultos_x86_vxxx.zip,” where xxx represents the software version number.
3
Insert a blank CD in the writable drive.
4
Create a CD with the CD-generation software using the “vaultos_x86_vxxx.iso” file.
For details on this procedure, see the relevant documentation for the CD-generation software in use.

Creating a Windows® PE-based Boot System

You can complete this process on any Windows system for which the following requirements are met:
•
Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit (ADK) for Windows 8 — obtained through download
•
Windows Server® 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012, Windows 7, or Windows 8 system
•
“NetVault Bare Metal Recovery ISO Builder for Plug-in Offline Client for Windows” file — on the Dell NetVault Backup Installation CD or downloaded from the Dell website
•
A writable DVD and CD-ROM drive
•
A blank DVD and CD
•
DVD- and CD-generation software
 
* 
NOTE: Dell recommends that you shut down all applications running on this machine before starting this procedure
1
Download the Windows ADK for Windows 8 from: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30652
2
Install the Windows ADK on a Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012, Windows 7, or Windows 8 system.
You can use the default directory, C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.0, or a different directory of your choosing.
 
* 
IMPORTANT: Installation of Windows ADK also installs Microsoft® .NET Framework if it is not already installed. After .NET Framework is installed, the system is automatically restarted.
3
Extract the “NetVault Bare Metal Recovery ISO Builder for Plug-in Offline Client for Windows” file to the Windows ADK machine.
This step creates two files, “nvbmrisocreate.exe” and “nvbmriso.pkg.”
4
Verify that the path to where you intend to create the ISO image exists.
If the directory does not exist when you run the next step, the ISO image is not created.
5
To create the Windows PE ISO image, navigate to the directory that contains the extracted “nvbmrisocreate.exe” file, type the following at the command prompt, and press Enter:
The following list describes what you can specify for each option:
•
/TYPE: If you are working with an earlier version of the Plug-in Offline Client, enter WAIK for Windows Automated Installation Kit (AIK). If you are using version 6.1 or later, you can enter ADK.
•
/PKG: Enter the full path and filename for the Plug-in Offline Client .pkg file that you downloaded separately.
•
/DIR: Enter the full path to the location of the Windows AIK or ADK directory.
•
/OUT: Enter the path where the bootable ISO image should be created.
•
/ADDDRV: Enter the full path where the downloaded device drivers are stored.
•
/BIT:32: If you need to create a backwards-compatible version of VaultOS for use with a 32-bit version of Windows PE, enter this option.
Example:
nvbmrisocreate /TYPE:ADK
/PKG:"<pathToFile>\nvbmriso.pkg"
/DIR:"C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.0"
/OUT:"C:\temp\bmr.iso"
6
Insert a blank CD in the writable drive.
7
Create a CD with CD-generation software using the “bmr.iso” file generated in Step 5.

Creating a rescue device for use with a LiveCD

A LiveCD is an OS that boots from a CD without the necessity of installing to a hard drive. This tool lets you initiate DR without the OS on disk. Plug-in Server supports booting from a LiveCD with VaultOS on a separate device, such as a USB device (Rescue USB) that uses the 3.0 protocol or earlier, or a different CD (Rescue CD).
The following items are required to create a Rescue CD or Rescue USB device:
•
The “drdaemon” and “vaultdr_client.sh” files — obtained through download.
•
A USB port and a USB device with enough space to hold the “drdaemon” and “vaultdr_client.sh” files; 1MB is sufficient,
or
•
A blank CD and a writable CD-ROM drive.
 
* 
NOTE: You need two CD-ROM drives on the target system to use a Rescue CD with a LiveCD.
1
Download Plug-in Offline Client, VaultOS from the Dell website.
2
Note the name and location of this file, for example, “/home/vaultos_x86_vxxx.zip,” where xxx represents the software version number.
3
Insert a blank CD in the writable drive.
4
Create a CD with the CD-generation software using the “vaultos_x86_vxxx.iso” file.
For details on this procedure, see the relevant documentation for the CD-generation software in use.
