basically if we use BMR for any asset, it will save the configuration (devices, drivers, etc) in the BMR database.
you should be able to find the details under the BMR management>Hosts>bare metal restore clients

BMR is for Pyshical servers only ,but it can be used to covert physical servers to VM (some limitations are there).
you will need a BMR boot server to do a BMR Restore.

Hello,
two corrections to the previous post:
BMR can be used for both physical and virtual servers. There could be virtual servers which must be backed up as physical servers for reasons (cluster nodes, VMs sensitive to snapshots creation/deletion etc). Also a VM restore can be used as a "cheap" BMR training option.
BMR Boot Server must be available only in the case of Network Based boot. In the case of CD Based boot, Boot server is not needed (you can even restore BMR Boot Server itself by this procedure).

Hello Michal,
Thank you for correcting me.I never used BMR for any of our customer for Virtual machines. Would you explain a bit more about this option if you have applied it any specific situation?
to create a BMR boot CD, we will initially need a boot server, or at least that's how I create a boot server.
