Finalizing and submitting the job for backing up data with Plug-in Offline Client

The final steps include setting additional options on the Schedule, Target Storage, and Advanced Options pages, submitting the job, and monitoring the progress through the Job Status and View Logs pages. These pages and options are common to all NetVault Backup Plug-ins. For more information, see the Quest NetVault Backup Administrator’s Guide.

1
Use the Schedule, Target Storage, and Advanced Options lists to configure any additional required options.
2
Click Save or Save & Submit, whichever is applicable.
TIP: To run a job that you have already created and saved, select Manage Job Definitions in the Navigation pane, select the applicable job, and click Run Now.
You can monitor progress on the Job Status page and view the logs on the View Logs page. For more information, see the Quest NetVault Backup Administrator’s Guide.

Restoring data with Plug-in Offline Client

The following topics describe how to restore backups to various configurations, such as a physical machine or a Virtual Machine Disk (VMDK) image.

CAUTION: Before attempting to recover to the same disk that you backed up, verify that all existing partitions have been removed; otherwise, recovery to the same disk might fail, unless the data was backed up using Disk Raw Mode.

Verify that the Disk Geometry of the OS targeted by the restore matches the geometry of the source OS that was backed up. If they do not match, for example, the source used 32 sectors per track, and the target uses 63 sectors, an error occurs when the system attempts to start.

Additional notes:

If you are using the Windows PE-base VaultOS, you created a backup using the Disk Raw Mode option, and you are restoring data to a physical machine or standby NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client, render the disk blank before beginning the restore and recovery process.

Using Plug-in Offline Client to restore data to a physical machine

This option lets you recover backups of the client to a physical machine that has the same hardware specification as the machine that was used for backup. It includes the following:

CAUTION: Even if there is no difference between the system devices in a backup and a restore, the order of the disks might be different. If the restored data is started without performing a rename, any data that exists on the disks is lost. To compare the information of the physical disk at backup and restore, note the Disk Geometry and Device Size at backup. For more information, see Performing a restore in which Disk Numbers are different from the backup.

For version 1.1.6 and later, also compare the Disk ID of the targeted disk on the Create Selection Set page to the Disk ID of the same disk on the NetVault Backup Selections page.

Quest strongly recommends that you disconnect all disks that contain critical data from the server before you boot the Plug-in Offline Client.

Prerequisites for restoring data with Plug-in Offline Client to a physical machine

A DR restore procedure is a delicate operation. Before setting up and running a DR restore, the prerequisites covered in the following topics must be met.

The target device name on the NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client, for example, Disk 0 (IDE), must be the same as it was at the time of backup.

Boot the target NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client with the Plug-in Offline Client to prepare it for the restore of a DR image. To complete the boot routine, perform the steps covered in Booting a NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client with Plug-in Offline Client.

This information should have been noted before the backup — see Verifying Disk Geometry and Device Size. Have this information handy to complete the restore correctly.

Sometimes, the restored Windows system might require reactivation. Verify that you have the necessary license key for reactivation.

The NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client machine that is to serve as a target for the restore must be accessible to the Plug-in Server. To check access, perform the following steps.

2
Access the NetVault Backup Selections page to verify that the applicable client machine has been added as a NetVault Bare Metal Recovery Client.
c
When the Edit Bare Metal Recovery Client dialog box is displayed, verify that the data is correct or change it as required.
