Veritas NetBackup™ Bare Metal Restore™ Administrator's Guide

The /boot partition must be on a separate partition for a multiple device-based OS configuration

If the client is configured as root (/) under a multi-device, then for a successful BMR restore, the /boot partition must be on a separate partition. That means, if / and /boot are on the same partition, they are not supported for a multiple device-based OS configuration.
