Veritas NetBackup™ Bare Metal Restore™ Administrator's Guide

Logging on for the first time after system restore

This section is applicable only for Windows operating system.

After the system is restored, a local administrator login is required to complete the DSR changes. The bmrcleanup utility runs and displays a status box that describes the actions being performed.

While the status box is visible, Windows may display a number of New Hardware Found Wizards.

To logon for the first time after system restore, perform the following actions, depending on which wizard or message screen appears:

  • In the Digital Signature Not Found panel, click Yes or Continue.

  • In the Found New Hardware Wizard panel, click Cancel.

  • In the New drivers are installed, do you want to reboot? panel, click No.

Note:

Do not reboot the system until the bmrcleanup status box completes.
