Task 3: Recover the NetWorker Client or Storage Node Data

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

3.Install the appropriate temporary enabler code for each Legato backup product. For temporary enabler codes, refer to the product installation guide.

4.If you are restoring a NetWorker storage node, ensure that the storage devices the NetWorker server will use are correctly configured. For details, refer to the appropriate NetWorker administrator’s guide.

5.From the NetWorker User program, perform a test recovery to verify that the NetWorker recovery process is functioning properly.

Task 3: Recover the NetWorker Client or Storage Node Data

Important: Recovery of volume mount points and their data requires special handling. It cannot be done using save set recovery. If you attempt to recover a mount point and the mounted volume’s data in a single operation, the data will be recovered to the root of the host volume and recovery of the mount point will fail. To successfully recover the mounted volume’s data, you must

4first manually recreate the mount point, using the same path as the original. You can then perform a separate NetWorker file recovery to restore just the mounted volume’s data (without including any of the host volume’s data in the recovery).

For more information about backing up and recovering mount points, refer to the Legato NetWorker Administrator’s Guide, Microsoft Windows Version. For information about creating mount points, refer to the Windows Online Help topics on creating mounted drives and using the Disk Management utility.

Note: This special handling is not required when performing ASR recovery.

To recover the NetWorker client or storage node data:

1.Log on to Windows with local administrator privileges.

Directed recovery of SYSTEM save sets is not supported. To recover SYSTEM save sets, you must be logged on to the computer being restored with local administrator privileges.
