It would be useful to know if you have windows or unix clients ...

OS versions ...

NBU versions ...

OS version -- Windows Server 2008 R2 for both master and Boot Server.

I am taking backup of both Windows and Unix clients 

 

NBU version 7.0.1

I am not personally aware of any video links.

The steps are in the guides, what questions do you have ?

At the very basic form (for example for a Unix client) that will boot off the boot server

 

Create an SRT containg the OS and NBU client for the server.

Run a BMR backup (that is, select the BMR option in the policy

In event of restore required :

In BMR section of GUI, run a "Preare to restore" on the client to be restored.

When complete, boot the cliemt (for example  ' boot net ', for Solaris client)

.. it should be that simple.

Cannot see anything on Symantec TV for BMR in NetBackup so I think as the others have advised the Admin Guide is the palce to look.

Other wise the support site for How To's - try this search:

Thanks Mandar for the video ....Wish I could Gift "Apple Magic Mouse"

Hi Mandar,

Can you repost the same links of veritas website. I am not able to open this link as these links are from Symantec website and Veritas is not a part of Symantec now :)

I tried changing symantec to veritas in the above link, and it does takes me to veritas website but in that post I cannot see the video demo unfortunately.

Thank you.
