Bare Metal Restore SRT Creation
Hi friends.
SRT Creation
- Run the following command to start the SRT creation:
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bmrsrtadm
- When the installation starts, select 1 to create a new SRT.
- Provide a name and description of the SRT.
e.g. TestBMR - Place the RedHat 5.5 DVD in the CD-Rom when prompted and press <Enter>.
- Press <Enter> to read the media from /dev/cdrom.
- Provide the path to the location of the BMR third party CD (3PPCD) iso file and press <Enter>.
- Provide the path to the client installation files. Provide the path to the directory containing the install file.
this should be the netbackup client zip file - Select Yes when prompted to install the client.
- Enter the NetBackup server name
- Enter the name of the system to be restored with SRT.
- At this point, the NetBackup client will be installed in the SRT. When it finishes, press 8 to exit the installation.
- The SRT is complete. To create the CD image for that SRT, start the installation by running the following command:
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bmrsrtadm
- Select 2 to create a CD image SRT.
- Provide the name of the SRT previously built and description.
- Provide the destination path where the iso will be created.
- Copy this to another machine and burn a DVD or something
The SRT CD created after performing the above mentioned steps is not working. I am not able to reboot the server to be restored using the SRT CD created.
Kindly Advice
Thank You
Please give all relevant information:
OS (and version) on BMR boot server
OS (and version) of Client that needs to be protected. Can we assume 5.5?
Please tell us which document you are referencing above - the steps for 'Creating a Linux SRT' in the NBU for BMR Admin Guide (link in your other post) are a bit different to the ones in your post.
