Chapter 3: UNIX Disaster Recovery

 

Important: If the NetWorker server was also a Legato License Manager server,

 

 

the License Manager lictype.res file is not restored when the server is restored.

 

 

This is because the License Manager files and directories are not considered

 

 

part of the NetWorker server. After recovering the NetWorker server, you

 

 

must explicitly recover the License Manager as a client of the NetWorker

 

 

server.

 

 

 

 

 

 

To recover a NetWorker server, complete the following tasks:

 

 

• “Task 1: Install the NetWorker Server Software” on page 33

 

 

 

• “Task 2: Configure NetWorker Device Resources” on page 34

 

 

• “Task 3: Locate the Server’s Bootstrap Save Set ID” on page 34

• “Task 4: Recover the NetWorker Server Bootstrap” on page 36

 

 

 

• “Task 5: Rename the NetWorker Server Configuration Files” on page 37

 

 

• “Task 6: Recover All Client File Indexes” on page 38

 

 

 

• “Task 7: Recover the Application and User Data” on page 39

 

 

• “Task 8: Perform a Test Backup and Recovery” on page 39

 

Task 1: Install the NetWorker Server Software

 

 

To install the NetWorker server software:

 

1.Install the same version of the NetWorker server software into its original location. When you install the NetWorker server software, the NetWorker client is also installed. For installation instructions, refer to the appropriate Legato NetWorker Installation Guide.

Note: If you want to upgrade the NetWorker server, first recover the server to its original state, then perform the upgrade.

2.Install any NetWorker patches that were installed prior to the disaster.

3.Re-create any links to the NetWorker directories such as the directories containing NetWorker index and configuration files.
