Important: If you did not set the recover options, you must select the

7. Reboot the computer when the recovery is complete. The computer should
now be restored as it was prior to the disaster.
Note: By default, the directed recover option is enabled when you install the
NetWorker client. If the directed recover option was disabled on the client
before the disaster, you need to explicitly set this option to disable directed
recoveries to this client. This option is set through the nsradmin command. For
more information about setting the disable directed recover option on the
NetWorker client, refer to the Legato NetWorker Administrator’s Guide, UNIX
Version.
