Rescue
and
Recovery
customization
Before
you
install
Rescue
and
Recovery,
you
should
understand
the
customization
available
for
Rescue
and
Recovery.
Previously,
Rescue
and
Recovery
was
customized
with
tvt.txt
files.
Lenovo
has
updated
customizing
techniques;
therefore,
customizations
are
done
through
the
registry
and
with
the
rnrdeploy.xml
file.
Once
the
default
rnrdeploy.xml
file
is
customized
and
installed,
settings
for
Rescue
and
Recovery,
are
managed
with
the
registry.
You
can
get
the
default
rnrdeploy.xml
file
by
executing
the
Download
Rescue
and
Recovery
and
Client
Security
Solution
Toolkits
at

&lndocid=TVAN-ADMIN
If
you
are
installing
Rescue
and
Recovery
over
previous
versions
the
settings
will
be
migrated
from
the
tvt.txt
files
to
the
registry.
Lenovo
has
created
a
supplement
document
to
this
deployment
guide
that
provides
the
values
and
descriptions
for
each
setting
of
the
rnrdeploy.xml
file.
This
supplement
contains
information
for
both
the
rnrdeploy.xml
file
and
the
settings
used
by
Active
Directory.
This
supplement
can
be
downloaded
from
the
Lenovo
Web
site
located
at
http://www.lenovo.com/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo
&lndocid=MIGR-66930
For
more
information
about
Active
Directory,
see
Scheduling
backups
and
associated
tasks
The
scheduler
is
not
designed
to
be
specific
to
Rescue
and
Recovery;
however,
the
configuration
is
stored
in
the
registry.
When
Rescue
and
Recovery
is
installed,
it
will
populate
the
scheduler
with
the
appropriate
settings.
Here
is
a
description
of
the
structure
for
the
scheduler:
v
Location:
Install
folder.
v
Entry
for
each
scheduled
task.
v
Script
to
run.
v
Named
pipe
to
be
used
for
progress
notifications.
This
is
an
optional
setting.
v
Schedule
information
monthly,
weekly,
daily,
weekday,
or
weekend
-
multiple
schedules.
Tuesdays
and
Fridays
for
example,
can
be
supported
by
creating
two
schedules.
v
Parameters
to
pass
to
tasks.
For
Rescue
and
Recovery,
perform
incremental
backups
on
schedule,
with
callbacks
before
and
after
the
backup.
In
the
Rescue
and
Recovery
ADM
file,
there
is
an
option
to
configure
the
Schedule
Task
1
and
Schedule
Task
2
settings.

following
registry
keys
must
