RE: Bare metal recovery

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

We use Legato Networker backup for taking the backup of our Linux server
and to do a Linux Bare Metal recovery, I use the following procedure : 

  * Boot on a Knoppix Live CD on the server you have to restore;
  * Change your hostname/IP address to be able to contact your Networker
server;
  * Install the Networker client on your Knoppix Live server (with
Unionfs available in Knoppix, it's not a problem !)- you can use alien
to convert the rpm package to a debian package;
  * Mount the disk you have to restore on your Knoppix server;
  * If needed, restore your partition table with the command sfdisk
/dev/sda < sfdisk_sda.out;
  * restore the file system with Networker;
  * re-install grub with the command grub-install --root-directory=/mnt
/dev/sda;
  
   * and reboot your system !!!.

This procedure will also work for Veritas. 

Regards.
Pierre.

I'm still trying to OBDR the tape using mkcdrec but no luck. It just
won't boot without error & warning.
