NetWorker Server Recovery Requirements

Important: If the browse and retention policies are not long enough to cover all of the save sets you use, all of the NetWorker server’s records are recovered, but any records that are older than a month are discarded because the default browse policy is one month.

4. If the NetWorker server’s client file index has not been relocated from its original path, or if you are going to recover a relocated client file index from a backup created with NetWorker release 7.x, skip this step and proceed to “Task 3: Locate the NetWorker Server Bootstrap Save Set ID” on page 70.

If you are going to recover the client file index from a backup created with a NetWorker release earlier than 7.x, and you moved the NetWorker server’s client file index path to a different location, you must:

a. Edit the Index Path attribute of the NetWorker server’s Client resource to reflect the correct path.

b. Stop and restart the following NetWorker services:

	Task 3: Locate the NetWorker Server Bootstrap Save Set ID
	If you already know the save set ID of the NetWorker server’s most recent
	bootstrap, skip this task and go to “Task 4: Recover the NetWorker Server
	Bootstrap” on page 72.
	The bootstrap contains the NetWorker server’s media database and resource
	configuration files, which are required for a NetWorker server recovery. For
	more information about the bootstrap, see “Preparing for Disaster” on page 21.
	There are two ways to determine the save set ID of the most recent bootstrap:
	1. The faster way to determine the bootstrap save set ID is to find it in the
	<NetWorker_install_path>\logs\savegrp.log file.
	By default, the NetWorker server automatically creates a bootstrap save
	set after each active scheduled backup that includes the server itself as a
	client. NetWorker software sends a copy of the bootstrap information to
	the default printer. You can also configure the NetWorker server to e-mail
