OKFirst let me say that I'm sorrybut I'm not a Windows dude. I live,
eat, and sleep in the Unix/Linux world. I have a couple of Windows backup
clients that my customer wants backed up to include system state (or whatever
they call it now days).
Master server is Solaris 10 box running NBU

You're not alone... I'm in basically the same situation.

Well I can't do BMR setup every time I hope to recover a Windows box. We have
HUNDREDS of backup clients spanning Unix, Linux, and Windows. Maybe hundreds is
a bit of an understatement because I do know of at least 2,000 backup clients
in our world here.
To setup an infrastructure to BMR any of
NBU 6.1 running on Linux, multiple media servers using a Data Domain VTL.
We are using a Data Domain for our vtl and are having an issue with the Data
Domain that causes it to panic and boot. The problem is that when the Data
Domain comes back up, all the NBU drives are in a DOWN-TLD mode and ha
There's at least one knowledge-base article on how to do that, but I don't
have its number handy. :-(
My too-old NetBackup experience (i.e., I expect there to be better/newer
info now), is that if you are restoring to the same hardware ...
- install Windows, networking and NetBackup to a sepa
Additionally to this one, I prefer the BMR Option.
Imagine the effort to install a new machine (OS, patch level etc) in order to
perform a full restore.
Using BMR, you need a server to host the boot cds, PXE to be faster and one
boot image of every OS and that's it.
You do not need full OS, but
BMR doesn't support EFI before 7.6.0.1 though...

Hello Dennis,
I have found the following:
http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH56473
It's not for solaris but it has the restore procedure in details.
Actually, I have not test it. I have used BMR for a couple of times (hopefully
for test reason)

If 1) you are at v 7.6.0.1 and 2) you have a vSphere environment you can:
Select the new policy type FlashBackup-Windows and then select the Hyper-V
server.
I've not yet tested this but it is on my radar to test this method of backup
and restore.
