	Disaster Recovery
	Preparing for a Disaster Recovery
	To determine for which hostname the SRD file from the Cell Manager
	should be updated, use the option -hostwith the command
	omnisrdupdate. If you don’t specify the hostname, the local host is
	assumed. SRD file on the Cell Manager is not updated.
Example	To update the SRD file with the backup object information which belongs
	to a session 2002/05/02-5for the client with the hostname
	computer.company.com and to store an updated copy of the SRD file on
	the floppy disk and in the SRDfiles share on computer with the
	hostname computer2, type omnisrdupdate -session 2002/05/02-5
	-host computer.company.com -location a: -location
	\\computer2\SRDfiles
	Make sure that you have the write permission on that share.
Using a Post-ExecAnother method to update the SRD is using the omnisrdupdate
Script	command as a backup post-exec script. To do so you have to either
	modify an existing backup specification or create a new one. Perform the
	following steps to modify a backup specification so that the SRD file is
	updated with information about backed up objects when the backup
	session stops:

1. In the Backup context, expand the Backup Specifications item and then Filesystem.

2. Select the backup specification that you would like to modify (it must include all backup objects marked as critical in the SRD file, otherwise the update will fail. It is recommended to perform the client backup with disk discovery) and click Options in the Results Area.

3. Click the Advanced button under the Backup Specification Options.

4. Type omnisrdupdate.exe in the post-exectext box.

5. In the On client drop down list, select the client on which this post-exec script will be executed and confirm with OK. This should be the client that was marked for backup on the source page.

When omnisrdupdate command is executed as a post-exec utility, the session ID is obtained automatically from the environment and the user is not required to specify the session ID.

All other options can be specified the same way as with the standalone utility (-location<path>, -host<name>).
