Recovering the NetVault Database 6 Enter a suitable name for the job in the Job Title box and start the backup job by clicking the Submit button on the command toolbar. Tip Only clients successfully added via the NetVault Client Management window will display. Recovering the NetVault Database This section summarizes the procedure necessary for recovering the NetVault Database from tape. For instructional details, see the NetVault for GuardianOS documentation that shipped with your Snap Server. Pre-Restore Requirements Before restoring the database, perform the following steps on the Snap Server acting as the NetVault Server: 1 Completely re-install and configure the same version of the GuardianOS that the server was running. The OS installation will also reinstall the NetVault Server software. 2 If necessary, navigate to the Maintenance > Add-On Features screen and re-enable the NetVault for GuardianOS software. 3 Remove all media from the device(s) used by the NetVault Server except the media that contains the backup saveset needed for the recovery of the NetVault Database. 4 Add all devices previously added to the NetVault Server through the use of the Device Management window. 5 From the Device Management window, the media containing the backup saveset will be recognized as FOREIGN in its designated drive or library slot. Scan the media before proceeding with the restore operation. Restore Recommendations The following recommendations are offered for the process of recovering the NetVault Database: • Perform a Full Recovery of the NetVault Database - Although NetVault offers provisions for recovering individual elements of the NetVault Database, it is recommended that a full recovery be performed. If recovering individual components, it is strongly recommended that this be performed under the guidance of NetVault Technical Support. 64 Snap Server Administrator Guide
