HOW TO RESTORE SERVER- .dr file not available, .bhf file sets are available

ABHILASH1
Level 2

i need to restore one sever (HP DL120, Microsoft Server 2008) using symantec BSER 2012 software.

however when i checked the backup folder, found .DR file is not available, but has only one set of .bhf files.

1. is it possible to restore the server using this .bhf files without a .dr file?

2. if i have another server's .dr file, is it possible to edit and make .DR file for this server and use .bhf file sets for this server?

Please advice.

1. You can do a manual recovery of the server. Rad the Amin Guide on how to do so. 2. No. You cannot use another server's .Dr file

The above KB applies to a local Windows 2008 recovery. If it is a remote server to be restored, have a look @ this KB instead - https://support.symantec.com/en_US/article.TECH86323.html
