Selecting data for a backup with Plug-in Live Client for Windows using Windows Server 2008 or later

You must use sets — Backup Selection Set, Backup Options Set, Schedule Set, Target Set, and Advanced Options Set — to create a backup job and create a DR image. For more information, see the Quest NetVault Backup Administrator’s Guide.

1
In the Navigation pane of the NetVault Backup WebUI running on the NetVault Backup Server, click Create Backup Job.
You can also start the wizard from the Guided Configuration link. In the Navigation pane, click Guided Configuration. On the NetVault Configuration Wizard page, click Create backup jobs.
2
In Job Name, specify a name for the job.
3
Next to the Selections list, click Create New.
To select specific items, double-click a disk to open it. Individual partitions are displayed and made available for selection. Information about each partition is displayed; for example, the partition number; the drive letter assigned — "C:", "D:"; the file system — NTFS, HPFS. Select the items that you want to back up. Selected items contain a green check, items that are not selected are blank, and omitted items contain a red cross.
8
Click Save, enter a name in the Create New Set dialog box, and click Save.

Setting backup options for a backup with Plug-in Live Client for Windows using Windows Server 2008 or later

The next step involves creating the Backup Options Set.

1
If you are using Windows Server 2008 or later and you do not want to back up only used blocks on a partition, click Create New next to the Plugin Options list.
2
Clear the Back up used blocks only for NTFS partitions option.
This option lets you back up only the used blocks on the partition, which can save a considerable amount of space and time. For example, if a machine has a 10 GB “C:” drive and only 6 GB is used, selecting this option backs up 6 GB because this amount is the actual used space. The Back up used blocks only for NTFS partitions option is selected by default. If you clear this option, a discrepancy (4 K) between the backup data and the size of the NTFS volume might be reported in the binary log; this feature is working as intended, and does not affect a restore.
3
Click Save to save the set.
4
In the Create New Set dialog box, specify a name for the set, and click Save.

Finalizing and submitting the job for a backup with Plug-in Live Client for Windows using Windows Server 2008 or later

The final steps include setting additional options on the Schedule, Target Storage, and Advanced Options pages, submitting the job, and monitoring the progress through the Job Status and View Logs pages. These pages and options are common to all NetVault Backup Plug-ins. For more information, see the Quest NetVault Backup Administrator’s Guide.

1
Use the Schedule, Target Storage, and Advanced Options lists to configure any additional required options.
2
Click Save or Save & Submit, whichever is applicable.
TIP: To run a job that you have already created and saved, select Manage Job Definitions in the Navigation pane, select the applicable job, and click Run Now.
You can monitor progress on the Job Status page and view the logs on the View Logs page. For more information, see the Quest NetVault Backup Administrator’s Guide.
The Master Boot Record (MBR) and the Partition Table items are backed up automatically when a partition (all or individual) is backed up with this plug-in.

Booting a NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client with Plug-in Offline Client

When performing backups using the Plug-in Live Client, a target NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client can be active and currently in use by a user, that is, online. However, various operations associated with the Plug-in Live Client require that the target NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client is taken offline and made accessible to the NetVault Backup Server. This process includes the following operations:

To bring a target DR system to this offline state, the Plug-in Offline Client is used to load a minimal OS to a target NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client’s memory. The Plug-in Offline Client boot routine entails the configuration of network equipment installed on the target NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client; that is, loading driver software for the system’s NIC/SCSI card to memory to use the device and access the system. This boot routine varies based on the version of Plug-in Offline Client in use:
