Creating the required bootable CD for use with Plug-in Live Client for Linux

With a successful DR image taken, the next phase of the DR procedure is the creation of a CD that contains the proper OS and device driver files for the target NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client to boot this machine when a recovery is required. This required data is included in a Boot Image during the backup of a target NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client. A CD-creation file entitled “linuxboot.iso” is created and saved on both the target NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client itself and on the piece of media targeted by the backup. This process allows an administrator to select from various different methods to create this CD. Any number of methods can be used to access this data and create this required CD. The following topics cover two example methods that can be used to accomplish this task.

Creating the CD and saving it for future use with Plug-in Live Client for Linux

Performed before the need for a recovery, this method lets you create this required CD from the “linuxboot.iso” file that was saved locally on the target NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client, and then store this CD for later use.

The following items are required to create the CD:

This procedure can be performed on any machine that has access to a writable CD drive and the “linuxboot.iso” file.

This file resides in the directory named in the Boot Images Directory field for this particular backup job; for example, the default is /storix/temp. If this value was not changed before backup, the file is located in this directory.

Creating the CD at the time of recovery for use with Plug-in Live Client for Linux

With this method, you can create this required CD using data recovered from the actual DR image backup, at the point that a recovery is required.

The following items are required to create the CD:

You must first recover the Boot Image data taken from the backup of the target Linux NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client.
