Before using the Plug-in Server, create a Plug-in Offline Client Boot System. This minimal OS loads to a target machine’s memory, rather than to its hard drive. This process leaves the hard drives inactive (offline) and in a suitable state for backup or restore. The Plug-in Offline Client is created on a writable CD. You can also boot from a LiveCD with the Plug-in Offline Client binaries on a separate device, such as a Universal Serial Bus (USB) device that uses the 3.0 protocol or earlier. This process is described in Creating a rescue device for use with a LiveCD.
The following items are required for this procedure:
1 |
Download Plug-in Offline Client, VaultOS from the Quest website. |
2 |
Note the name and location of this file, for example, “/home/vaultos_x86_vxxx.zip,” where xxx represents the software version number. |
4 |
You can complete this process on any Windows system for which the following requirements are met:
• |
“NetVault Bare Metal Recovery ISO Builder for Plug-in Offline Client for Windows” file — on the Quest NetVault Backup Installation CD or downloaded from the Quest website |
1 |
Download the Windows ADK for Windows 8 from: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30652 |
2 |
Install the Windows ADK on a Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012, Windows 7, or Windows 8 system. |
3 |
Extract the “NetVault Bare Metal Recovery ISO Builder for Plug-in Offline Client for Windows” file to the Windows ADK machine. |
5 |
To create the Windows PE ISO image, navigate to the directory that contains the extracted “nvbmrisocreate.exe” file, type the following at the command prompt, and press Enter: |
• |
/TYPE: If you are working with an earlier version of the Plug-in Offline Client, enter WAIK for Windows Automated Installation Kit (AIK). If you are using version 6.1 or later, you can enter ADK. |
• |
/PKG: Enter the full path and filename for the Plug-in Offline Client .pkg file that you downloaded separately. |
• |
/DIR: Enter the full path to the location of the Windows AIK or ADK directory. |
• |
/OUT: Enter the path where the bootable ISO image should be created. |
• |
/ADDDRV: Enter the full path where the downloaded device drivers are stored. |
• |
/BIT:32: If you must create a backward-compatible version of VaultOS for use with a 32-bit version of Windows PE, enter this option. |
7 |
The following items are required to create a Rescue CD or Rescue USB device:
• |
• |
A USB port and a USB device with enough space to hold the “drdaemon” and “vaultdr_client.sh” files; 1 MB is sufficient, |
1 |
Download Plug-in Offline Client, VaultOS from the Quest website. |
