Why you don't install a new instance of adsm (c:\winnt.tmp\adsm.tmp) on the
crash'd node
and restore direct from that node.
Copy registry should also be possible. Only boot.ini must be modified.

Subject: NT Backup/recovery
Hi All,
For NT 4.0, I have tested the Bare Metal Restore on a testing PC and the
procedures is fine.
However, it seems unrealistic to have a NT repair partition in particular
for a NT with only one harddisk.
Just wan to know how you cater for NT system recovery in a TSM environment.
Do you run additional backup utilities? If so, what is your procedures.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Eric Tang
