RE: [Veritas-bu] Disaster Recovery Software Planning for Win2k3
Title: Message Hi Does anyone do any DR planning with Netbackup on windows in the event of a Disaster, or Server dies and replaced with new hardware.

If anyone is in a Win2k3 environemt (or NT/2000), I would love to hear opinions on this. With my old NBU 3.4 I must have had a license to do a BMR, because I created either a CD/floppy disk that was inserted into the server, connected to the Master Server and restored the data.

But I would like to review the possibility of a faster solution. Buy the BMR option. [...] With my old NBU 3.4 I must have had a license to do a BMR, because I created either a CD/floppy disk that was inserted into the server, connected to the Master Server and restored the data. It worked, but took time... IDR From the NetBackukp 5.1 Release Notes: 2. With the next major release of NetBackup, VERITAS will replace Intelligent Disaster Recovery (IDR) with the Bare Metal Restore (BMR) product. The BMR option offers an automated system recovery that is best suited for NetBackup. Therefore, VERITAS will drop support for IDR in stages making sure to not alienate any back-level IDR clients still in need of our support. The following list provides more information on the level of support that will be available. o VERITAS will drop support for the IDR client in the next major release of NetBackup. o The IDR Server sill ship with the next major release of NetBackup to support back-level IDR clients. o VERITAS is projecting that the IDR Server will be decommissioned in two major releases from NetBackup 5.1. ___ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu
