NetBackup™ Troubleshooting Guide

About disk recovery procedures for Windows

The three different types of disk recovery for Windows are as follows:

  • Primary server disk recovery procedures

    See About recovering the primary server disk for Windows.

  • Media server disk recovery procedures

    See About recovering the NetBackup media server disk for Windows.

  • Client disk recovery procedures

    See Recovering a Windows client disk.

The disk-based images that reside on AdvancedDisk or on OpenStorage disks cannot be recovered by means of the NetBackup catalog. These disk images must be recovered by means of the NetBackup import feature. For information on import, refer to the section on importing NetBackup images in the following manual:

See NetBackup Administrator's Guide, Volume I:

Note:

When the disk image is imported, NetBackup does not recover the original catalog entry for the image. Instead, a new catalog entry is created.
