Protecting the software

To protect software from loss or damage, you should keep a backup copy of all system software, applications, and related files stored on the hard drive. See the operating system or backup utility documentation for instructions on making backup copies of data files.

Restoring the software

The HP Backup and Recovery Manager is an easy-to-use, versatile application that is pre-loaded on each system and allows you to:

create Recovery Points to back up the entire system incrementally

back up the entire hard drive in a single archive

back up individual files

Backups can be scheduled to occur automatically at designated intervals, or they can be initiated manually. Recovery can be performed from the Recovery Partition on the hard drive or the Recovery Disc Set . The Recovery Disc Set includes the Restore Plus! CD, the Microsoft Operating System, and any Supplemental Software CDs.

NOTE: HP highly recommends that you create a Recovery Disc Set immediately before using the workstation and schedule regular automatic Recovery Point backups.

The HP Backup and Recovery Manager provides two basic recovery methods. The first, recovery of files and folders, operates in Windows. The second, Workstation Recovery, requires a reboot to the Recovery
