For information about performing a full restore from a savepoint manifest, see Restoring from manifest.

To perform a full restore of a physical machine, complete the following tasks:

•
Creating the boot media
•
Booting the target server
•
Selecting a savepoint
•

Mapping disks
•
Setting the recurrence schedule
