Hello everyone.

    Sorry, what is BRM? Are you referring to Bare Metal Restore? If so, use Handy NBU Links in my signature to locate NBU 7.7 manuals. Download the BMR manual.

    BMR works well, the only time you'll face issues is with servers that have "non-standard" or not well known components and drivers. Linux is less prone to this issue and usually works well.

     

    Follow the lnik Marianne suggested to get to the docs.
