Prerequisites

Task 1: Install the NetWorker Software

To install the NetWorker software:

1.Install the same version of NetWorker software into its original location. For installation instructions, refer to the Legato NetWorker Installation Guide, NetWare Version.

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

You do not need to reload the license enablers if the NetWorker configuration files still exist. By default, the configuration files are located in the SYS:NSR\RES directory.

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

Task 2: Configure NetWorker Device and Client Resource

To configure the device and client resource:

1. Configure the Device resource:

Note: If you are recovering data using an autochanger, enter [F4] to verify that the autochanger correctly appears in the Autochanger window.

2. Configure the Client resource associated with the server.

Set the browse and retention policies to a decade. The browse policy is one quarter (four months) by default. This enables you to recover all of the server’s records.

Important: If you do not reset the browse and retention policies, all of the server’s records will be recovered. However, any records that are more than one quarter (four months) old will be discarded, because the browse policy is one quarter by default.
