Restoring a raw device backup

The procedure for restoring a Raw Device Backup includes the following steps:

•
Prerequisites

Restore Procedure

Prerequisites

Before you start the restore procedure, verify that the following requirements are met:

•
Restore an entire disk: Unmount the target disk. Verify that the size of the target disk is equal to or larger than the size of the source disk.
•
Restore an individual partition: On Windows, verify that the size of the target partition is equal to the size of the source partition. When you restore the data to a partition of a different size, the job completes with the message “Partition to Restore to a Different Size than the Backed Up Partition.” This type of restore might require reinstallation or reformatting.
This requirement does not apply to Linux and UNIX systems.
 
* 
NOTE: The Plug-in for Raw Devices cannot be used to perform cross-platform restores. You cannot restore raw device backups of a Windows Client to a Linux Client or raw device backups of a Linux Client to a Windows Client.
