I think some of those items are a little dated. For example, I do not recall the history behind this one:
Windows 2008 must be restored using Windows PE 2.0. Windows 7 and Windows 2008 R2 require Windows PE 3.0 for ASR restore. but Windows PE 3.1 is the minum version that should be used for Windows Server 2008. Here is a parent link to articles covering backup and recovery of Windows: https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/home?lang=en#!/wiki/Tivoli%20Storage%20Manager/page/Best%20practices%20for%20Tivoli%20Storage%20Manager%20backup-archive%20client The above URL includes links to these individual articles: * Best Practices for Recovering Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows 7, and Windows Vista * Best Practices for Recovering Windows Server 2012 and Windows 8 * Best Practices for Recovering Windows Server 2012 R2 and Windows 8.1 * Guidelines for Backup and Recovery of Microsoft Windows Server 2016 and Microsoft Windows 10 * Best Practices for Backing Up Microsoft Windows These are (mostly) up to date, with the last two being most recent.
