Hi,
We are doing some testing to complete our disaster recovery procedure and we have some problem using BackupExec 12.5 (SP4) IDR option. We have created the IDR boot CD, the DR file and a full backup for our Windows 2003 x64 Ent server (HP DL380 G5 hardware). We are trying to restore to an alternate server (HP DL380 G6) with different hardware but we meet the requirement of the IDR documentation (same number of partition, more space on partition then initially, etc.).
When we run the IDR recovery on the alternate server, everything worked just fine in the Symantec IDR step by step procedure and the server restart, after I see the Windows logo with the completion bar but then the screen goes black and the server reboot.
Please note that the server to restore contain a SQL2005 database
Here is the servers config:
Backed up server:
-
HP DL380 G5
-
1 quadcore processor
-
3 partitions (OS partition is on 2 disk raid1, others two on SAN volume)
Alternate test server:
-
HP DL380 G6
-
1 quadcore processor
-
3 partitions (1 OS partion on 1 HD raid0, 1 partition on another disk raid0 and the last partion on 2 HD raid0)
Any help will be welcome
