corresponding media must be added to the SRD. The SRD can be
updated only on a Windows client. The name of the updated SRD file is

How to Update
SRD?

There are three different methods possible for updating the SRD file:

• Update SRD File Wizard

•

omnisrdupdate

command as a standalone utility

•

omnisrdupdate

command as a backup session post-exec script

Using SRD Update
Wizard

To update the SRD file using the Update SRD File Wizard:, proceed as
follows:

1. In the

Data Protector Manager

switch to the

Restore

context and

then click the

Tasks

Navigation tab.

2. In the

Scoping Pane

of the

Tasks

Navigation tab, check the

Disaster Recovery

3. In the

Results Area

, check the

SRD File Update

option button,

select the client and click

4. For each of the critical objects, select an object version and click

5. Type the destination directory where the updated SRD file is to be

placed and click

Finish

IMPORTANT

Because the SRD file is saved on the Cell Manager system, it is not
accessible if the Cell Manager fails. As a result, you need an additional
copy of the Cell Manager’s SRD which should be stored in a vault.
In addition to the Cell Manager, you should save the updated SRD file to
several secure locations as a part of the disaster recovery preparation
policy. See “Preparation” on page 451.

Using
omnisrdupdate

It is also possible to update the SRD file using the

omnisrdupdate

command as a standalone command. The

omnisrdupdate

command is

located in the

\bin

directory.
