administrator and a default external file will be provided. When the user chooses
to recover the operating system, they will see a menu that allows them to choose

Only with the following Windows options: Only files that match the rules
contained in this external file will be restored. The administrator can customize the

Trouble ticket
Because there is no way to transmit information through file transfer or e-mail
from the Rescue and Recovery environment, the end user is directed to use the
e-mail function integrated in the browser. The logging function packages the log
events into a file, and directs the end user to e-mail the file after he or she
completes the recovery process and logs onto Windows. The file received from the
end user creates the Req 115 Trouble Ticket XML file, which combines (Current, HW,
eGatherer, and PCDR diagnostic log information), and will be placed in a location
which can be easily found and accessible from both the Rescue and Recovery
environment and operating system – C:\SWSHARE.
The Diagnostics tool available in the Predesktop Area of Rescue and Recovery aids
in problem determination. Output from tests performed by the Diagnostics tool are
stored in a manner which can be viewed or transmitted to a help desk.
Rescue and Recovery interface switching
The Rescue and Recovery user interface provides the option to switch between the
simplified user interface or the advanced user interface. The simplified interface
has a few basic options, while the advanced interface has extended options. When
Rescue and Recovery is first started, you will see the simplified user interface
unless the setting is disabled.
You will see the last closed interface each time Rescue and Recovery is started. If
you start Rescue and Recovery with the simplified user interface, then change it to
the advance interface and close the application, the advanced interface will start
the next time Rescue and Recovery is launched.
