This article describes the Local Mount Utility (LMU).
The LMU is a utility that lets you mount a recovery point on a remote AppAssure 5 Core from any machine and was introduced in AppAssure 5.
The Local Mount Utility is a downloadable application that lets you mount a recovery point on a remote AppAssure 5 Core from any machine. The light-weight utility includes the aavdisk and aavstor drivers, but it does not run as a service. When you install the utility, by default, it is installed in the directory C:\Program Files\AppRecovery\Local Mount Utility and a shortcut appears on the machine’s desktop.
While the utility was designed for remote access to cores, you also can install the LMU on an AppAssure 5 Core. When it runs on a core, the application recognizes and displays all mounts from that core, including mounts performed through the AppAssure 5 Core Console. Likewise, mounts performed on the LMU also appear in the console.
Users can perform the following functions within the Local Mount Utility:
For more information on the LMU, see the “Working with the AppAssure 5 Core” chapter of the AppAssure 5 User Guide located on the AppAssure 5 Technical Documentation website.
