Using NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Plug-in Live Client for Linux

Plug-in Live Client for Linux: an overview

This topic describes how to install, configure, and use Plug-in Live Client for Linux for backing up and restoring data.

The Plug-in Live Client for Linux supports DR operations for Linux x86 and x86-64-based systems. This plug-in can back up and recover an entire disk including the OS, applications, system settings, partition information, and data. The plug-in enables online backup a full Linux system, thus allowing system administrators to conduct DR backups while eliminating system downtime for users.

After the plug-in is correctly installed and configured, a DR image of a live system can be taken and saved for future recovery if a system failure occurs. During creation of this image, the Plug-in Live Client for Linux can automatically include all information pertaining to the networking hardware in use by the target Linux NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client machine, that is, driver information files. These files are then compiled into a separate CD creation file, “.iso” file format, that can be saved along with the DR image. At the time of recovery, this file is recovered and used to create a bootable CD, complete with the necessary driver files that were taken from the Linux NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client. Using this CD, the Linux NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client can be successfully booted to a state that allows for the recovery of the DR image.

The Plug-in Live Client for Linux does not support the following:

For large sparse files, the BB Agent Timeout must be configured to a large value. For details on the BB Agent Timeout option, see Storix installation for Plug-in Live Client for Linux.
