1.Ensure that the NetWorker software is properly installed. For details, refer to the Legato NetWorker Installation Guide, Microsoft Windows Version.

2.Using the NetWorker User program, recover all the data that belongs to the shared disk.

For more information, refer to the Microsoft Cluster Server documentation.

To configure the cluster to include the shared disk:

2.In the Cluster Administrator program, create a new cluster resource to represent the new disk.

3.Add the cluster resource to the resource group you created in “Task 1: Take the Dependent Resources Offline” on page 113.

If you did not create a new resource group Task 1, add the resource to the resource group where it was before the replacement.

5.Start the resource group that contains the shared disk.

6.If you created a new resource group:
