Complete the following procedure to use a portable media device to load drivers in the Universal Recovery Console (URC).
This list shows the drivers that are necessary for the hardware but are not included in the boot CD.
Complete the following procedure to use the Chromium browser that comes installed on the boot CD to load drivers while in the URC.
This list shows the drivers that are necessary for the hardware but are not included in the boot CD.
After the Universal Recovery Console (URC) is accessible on the bare metal restore (BMR) target machine, you must select the recovery point that you want to restore.
Navigate to the Core Console to select which recovery point you want to load, and then designate the recovery console as the destination for the restored data.
|
NOTE: This step is required to perform BMR on all Windows machines and optional to perform BMR on Linux machines. |
This task is part of the process for Using the Universal Recovery Console for a BMR.
If performing a BMR for a Linux machine from the Core Console, then this task is also a step in Performing a bare metal restore for Linux machines. It is part of the process for Launching a bare metal restore for a Linux machine using the command line.
Text Box | Description |
---|---|
IP Address | The IP address of the machine to which you want to restore. This is identical to the IP address displayed in the URC. |
Authentication Key | The specific password to connect to the selected server. This is identical to the Authentication Key displayed in the URC. |
If the connection information you entered matches the URC, and if the Core and the target server can identify each other properly on the network, then the volumes for the selected recovery point are loaded, and the Disk Mapping page appears. In this case, your next step is to map volumes.
After you connect to the Universal Recovery Console, you need to map volumes between those listed in the recovery point and the volumes existing on the target hardware.
Rapid Recovery attempts to automatically map volumes. If you accept the default mapping, then the disk on the destination machine is cleaned and re-partitioned and any previously existing data is deleted. The alignment is performed in the order the volumes are listed in the recovery point, and the volumes are allocated to the disks appropriately according to size, and so on. Assuming there is enough space on the target drive, no partitioning is required when using automatic disk alignment. A disk can be used by multiple volumes. If you manually map the drives, note that you cannot use the same disk twice.
For manual mapping, you must have the new machine correctly formatted already before restoring it.
|
NOTE: When restoring a Linux machine and using manual mapping, additionally, the partitions must be mounted prior to completing the restore. |
The destination machine must have a separate partition for each volume in the recovery point, including the system reserved volume. For more information, see Using the Universal Recovery Console for a BMR.
As of Rapid Recovery Core release 6.5, you can use automatic mapping when performing BMR for LVM and software-based RAID volumes on Linux machines without first creating the partitions.
Complete the procedure for one of the following disk-mapping options:
|
NOTE: ReFS is supported for Rapid Recovery on machines with Windows Server 2012 R2 or later. If protecting machines with the ReFS file system, the version of Windows that hosts the Rapid Recovery Core must be newer than the Windows version on the protected machine. |
|
Caution: Bare metal restore of Storage Spaces disks configuration (a feature of Windows 8.1) is not supported. For details, see the Rapid Recovery Installation and Upgrade Guide. |
