How to recover client when BMR configuration is deleted accidentally

If you delete a client and its current configuration, the next time the client is backed up, its configuration is saved. The client appears again in the Bare Metal Restore Clients view.

If the client and configuration are deleted after a client fails (before it is restored), use the bmrs command to retrieve the client's previous configuration. (You cannot perform a point in time restore because a deleted client does not appear in the Bare Metal Restore Clients view.)

The following is the format of the bmrs command to use on the master server:

bmrs -resource config -operation retrieve -client clientName 
-destination newConfigname -enddate dateFormat -policy policyName

For more information about the bmrs command, see NetBackup Commands.
