Backup and recovery strategies
On the FT server, there are three partitions to support backup and recovery strategies as follows:
• The C: drive is for the Windows operating system and applications.
• The D: drive is for a database, such as the GV STRATUS system database. This allows you to
restore the Windows operating system on the C: drive, yet keep the files on the D: drive intact.
Typically the database is backed up and recovered with database-specific processes, rather than
with a disk image.
• The E: drive is for storing a system image of the other partitions. From the E: drive you can
restore images to the C: and D: drives.
When you receive a FT server from the factory, the machine has a system-specific image on the E:
drive. For the highest degree of safety, you should copy this image to a secure location that is not
on the FT device itself.
You receive a recovery CD with your server. This recovery CD does not contain a disk image.
Rather, the recovery CD is bootable and contains the Acronis True Image software necessary to
create and restore a disk image.
