Manual disaster recovery

[Dave_Starsmeare]

I have a critical problem on a sbs2000 server and am about to embark on a manual restore of the entire system. Are there any support papers etc as to what order i need to do things in and what do i need to reinstall before starting the restore?

Many thanks

Dave

Probably a little late now, but the Admin Guide is a really good place to start

If you don;t have a bound copy, the v9.0 Guide can be found here http://seer.support.veritas.com/docs/266190.htmMessage was edited by:

Just an update to the situation, the server has restored ok but i am experiencing problems trying to retore the email mailboxes, when restored the users can no longer send or receive but the owa works fine and shows all data? Any ideas?

Did you just do a Stores Restore, or didi yo try to do a Mailbox restore also?

For Disaster Recovery, a Stores Restore is all that you should do.
