Task 1: Satisfy the NetWorker Client or Storage Node Recovery
Requirements
To recover a NetWorker client or storage node requires:
• The same release and patch level of the NetWorker software that was in
use prior to the disaster
• The installation path of the NetWorker software prior to the disaster.
• Backup or clone volumes that contain the NetWorker client or storage
node’s data
Note: If you routinely move NetWorker backup media to an offsite location for
safekeeping, ensure that you have all necessary volumes available to avoid
delays during a recovery. You can run the mminfo -s server -mv command
from the command prompt to list the media associated with the files you
intend to recover. For details about the mminfo command, refer to the Legato
Command Reference Guide.
Task 2: Reinstall the NetWorker Client or Storage Node Software
If the NetWorker client or storage node software is not properly installed and
running on the host computer, you must reinstall it, as follows:
1. To install the NetWorker client or storage node software, refer to the
appropriate NetWorker installation guide.
• If the NetWorker installation kit is available on a shared drive, you
can install it over the network.
• Install the NetWorker software to the same path location it occupied
prior to the disaster.
• To update the NetWorker software, first recover the NetWorker
client or storage node to its predisaster state, then perform the
update.
