About Dell NetVault Bare Metal Recovery for Dell NetVault Backup Server

Dell NetVault Bare Metal Recovery (NetVault Bare Metal Recovery) for Dell NetVault Backup (NetVault Backup) Server is a specially packaged version of NetVault Bare Metal Recovery that provides offline bare metal protection for NetVault Backup Servers running on x86/x86-64-based operating systems that use locally-attached tape-based devices. The bare metal recovery (BMR) image of the NetVault Backup Server is taken by a CD that is preloaded with a NetVault Backup Server, the Plug-in Server, and the drdaemon process. The BMR image can then be transferred to a direct-attached tape-based library or standalone tape drive for recovery in case disaster recovery is needed for the NetVault Backup Server.

NetVault Bare Metal Recovery for NetVault Backup Server:

•

Provides a backup of the server; it does not provide access to network-related functionality such as support for the Manage Clients page and its features.

•

Supports the use of a virtual tape library (VTL) that was created on a network file system (NFS). For information on creating a Linux-based NFS mount, see your Linux documentation. For information on creating the VTL, see the Dell NetVault Backup Administrator’s Guide.

•

Uses version 7 of Red Hat® Enterprise Linux® (RHEL), CentOS™, and Dell GigaOS.

•

Does not support shared VTLs (SVTLs) or Dell NetVault SmartDisk.


	IMPORTANT: The preloaded NetVault Backup Server uses NetVault Backup v10.0.0; however, this preloaded version of the NetVault Backup Server can protect and recover NetVault Backup Servers using NetVault Backup v8.2.2 and later. Starting with 10.0.0, NetVault Backup provides a web-based user interface (WebUI) to configure, manage, and monitor your NetVault Backup system. The procedures described in the user’s guide for this version of the product are intended for the new WebUI. For procedures based on the NetVault Backup Console (user interface available with NetVault Backup 9.x), see the documentation for an earlier version of the product.
