Task 4: Verify the NetWorker Client or Storage Node Recovery
86
If you do not select Overwrite Existing File, the recovery process pauses
before any existing files are overwritten, and a Naming Conflict dialog box
appears, prompting you to indicate how the NetWorker software should
resolve filename conflicts.
10. Click Start to begin the recovery.
Note: Files in the Windows Recycle Bin are not password protected. If the
Password Protection dialog box appears, select Recover > OK to recover them.
11. Check the log file to verify that no error messages were generated during
the recovery sessions. The NetWorker software logs information about the
recovery process to the <NetWorker_install_path>\logs file. This file is
overwritten each time a recovery is performed. If there are error messages
in the log file, you might need to run the recovery again after addressing
the source of the errors.
12. After recovery, reboot the computer to completely restore the
system-protected files and restart services that were automatically
stopped prior to recovery.
Note: If you perform a complete reinstallation of the Windows operating
system during a disaster recovery, the display resolution will be set to default
values when the disaster recovery is complete. To reconfigure to the previous
display settings, use the Control Panel Display tool. This problem does not
occur if you perform an ASR recovery on a Windows .NET or Windows XP
Professional NetWorker client.
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,
Windows Version.
Task 4: Verify the NetWorker Client or Storage Node Recovery
To verify the NetWorker client or storage node recovery:
1. Reboot the NetWorker client or storage node host computer and verify
that the NetWorker Remote Exec service has started.
2. Use the Windows Event Viewer to examine the event logs for errors. In
particular, check for:
• Service startup errors related to the Windows system state
