Backup exec restore questions
Hey Guys,
I'm kind of new to backup exec 2010 R3 but I have a few questions. First let me put a scenario together to help illustrate my question before I sound too much like a noob.
Say a production server went down and you cant restore the OS, its corrupted beyond repair. How would you restore the whole OS from backup exec? Basically what I'm asking is how would you create an "Image" of the whole OS in a certain state without having to go through the whole, install a new OS then restore from tape? I realize I could convert it to a VM then restore it that way? Basically I'm looking for a Best practices when it comes to restoring a whole server from a backup exec tape backup.
Better yet what is the fastest way to restore a whole OS from backup exec?
Thanks
