NetWorker Server Recovery Requirements

To recover a NetWorker server requires:

•The same release and patch level of the NetWorker software that was in use immediately prior to the disaster

•The installation path of the NetWorker software prior to the disaster

•Backup or clone volumes that contain the NetWorker server’s most recent bootstrap, client file indexes, and filesystem data

Note: To avoid delays during a recovery, if you routinely move NetWorker backup media to an offsite location for safekeeping, ensure that all necessary volumes are available. To list the media associated with the files you want to recover, run mminfo -mvfrom the command prompt. For more information about the mminfo command, refer to the Legato Command Reference Guide.
