Altiris Local Recovery
Altiris Local Recovery is a preloaded application that protects the
files on your notebook by storing copies of files, called snapshots.
If files on your notebook are accidentally deleted or corrupted,
you can easily restore the files yourself. You can also restore your
complete file system to a previous state.
Altiris Local Recovery provides protection of files by backing up
files to a hidden Altiris recovery partition. When you install the
software, the Recovery Agent Partition Wizard guides you
through the process of creating the recovery partition. After the
partition is created, the notebook restarts and creates the first
snapshot. After the snapshot is created, the notebook restarts,
making the snapshot available for recovery through Windows.
By default, Local Recovery automatically takes snapshots of your
files on a regular basis. You can change the snapshot schedule.
For more information, refer to the Altiris Local Recovery Help.
To access your snapshots in the Altiris Recovery Agent folder:
1. Right-click the Altiris Recovery Agent icon on your desktop.
2. Click Open.
To restore one of the listed snapshots:
» Drag the snapshot file to the appropriate location on your
hard drive.
