HI All,
I need help trying to recover a BMR client that I deleted when i was cleaning up some of the configs I created. Seeing that the client is down i can not run a backup to get the client to populate back into the bmr list of clients. I have tried to run bmrs command to recover but i actually think that is only if you deleted the current config and not the entire client. If anyone has any thoughts on this let me know.
Solved! Go to Solution.

You can still re-create that client current config. But it requires some manual steps.
1. Using NB restore GUI, restore bundle.dat file from that client backup image. It will be inside $NB_CLIENT_INSTALL_DIR/baremetal/client/data directory.
FYI: This file contains that client baremetal information saved during latest bmr enabled backup.
2. Using bmrs command on master, import this bundle.dat file using bmrs -o import...syntax.
Successful execution of this command will show the client BMR config in admin GUI,
3. Now check if you can do BMR PTR.
Thanks.

Hi i have looked around trying to get this imported with little luck. All i seem to get is the network error listed above.
The link you sent me no longer goes to the pdf.

I was able to import, using the command suggested. I am not too sure if the first bundle.dat i restored was corrupt but the second one i restored worked without issue.
bmrs -operation import -resource config -path /usr/openv/bundle.dat
Thanks for the help mandar
