Recovery Solution Map
Keep the following guidelines in mind:
•
Reinstallation of the operating system requires you to reinstall all the applications on the appliance. With
Symantec Backup Exec, this process can be streamlined through the use of the IDR or SDR.
•
After the Backup Exec services are started, you must wait for a
minimum of 5 minutes
before making any
changes or starting a new task within Backup Exec.
•
If there is a non-recoverable failure of the disk group containing the operating system, a reinstallation of the
operating system and all applications is required.
•
If there is a non-recoverable failure of the disk group containing one or more Symantec Backup Exec backup to
disk or DSF or DDS media sets, a restoration of the backup media sets on that disk group from tape or a
secondary disk is required.
•
For all non-disk related hardware failures, see the
Hardware Owner’s Manual
for the PowerVault DL2
xxx
system
and the PowerVault MD
xxxx
storage enclosure at support.dell.com/manuals.
•
Unless you are replacing failed physical disks, do not attempt to add additional storage to the system or storage
enclosures until all recovery procedures have been completed.
•
Do not run Microsoft Windows Update until all the recovery procedures have been completed.
