NOTE: On completion of this process, the job is added to the NetVault Backup job queue; however, unlike a traditional NetVault Backup restore job, it does not begin running. The steps covered in Booting the target NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client with the appropriate OS and drivers for use with Plug-in Live Client for Linux must be successfully performed before the job begins.

If you attempt a second restore after processing a restore that failed, the second restore might stop responding (hang) when it begins creating the logical volume. If this issue occurs, blank the target disk and run the restore process again.
