Disaster Recovery Methods Disaster Recovery Methods Disaster recovery methods are provided for specific versions of Windows as discussed in the following sections. For more information about the differences between the methods discussed in this section, see the "Recovering from a Disaster" sections in the "Disaster Recovery on Windows NT 4.0,""Disaster Recovery on Windows 2000," and "Disaster Recovery on Windows XP and Windows 2003" chapters in this guide. Windows NT and Windows 2000 On Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 platforms, the option provides three boot methods for disaster recovery: ■ Bootable disk method: Using a modified version of the Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 2000 setup disks, you can recover any computer using the Disaster Recovery Wizard. You can start up any server, including servers with unformatted hard drives, and fully restore your system using the option's backup media. Note: Only remote disaster recovery is supported on Windows NT. Local disaster recovery is not supported. ■ Bootable CD method (preferred method): For Windows 2000, the option has a faster way of booting to the Disaster Recovery Wizard. Instead of using disks and a Microsoft 2000 CD, you need only one disk and a recovery CD. The wizard then restores the system using the option's backup media. ■ Bootable Tape method (Windows 2000 only): Instead of booting from a floppy disk drive or CD, you can boot Windows 2000 based servers using a tape drive. Recovery can be performed directly from the backup tapes. The option creates a bootable backup tape for use with compatible tape drives and only requires the most recent backup media. Note: Tape drives must be configured to act as boot devices. Because tape drive functionality varies by manufacturer, contact your tape drive vendor to determine if your tape drive capabilities meet your needs.

Disaster Recovery Methods
Disaster recovery methods are provided for specific versions of Windows as
discussed in the following sections. For more information about the differences
between the methods discussed in this section, see the “Recovering from a
Disaster” sections in the
"

chapters in this guide.
Windows NT and Windows 2000
On Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 platforms, the option provides three boot
methods for disaster recovery:
■
Bootable disk method:
Using a modified version of the Windows NT 4.0 or
Windows 2000 setup disks, you can recover any computer using the Disaster
Recovery Wizard. You can start up any server, including servers with
unformatted hard drives, and fully restore your system using the option’s
backup media.
Note:
Only remote disaster recovery is supported on Windows NT. Local
disaster recovery is not supported.
■
Bootable CD method
(preferred method): For Windows 2000, the option has
a faster way of booting to the Disaster Recovery Wizard. Instead of using disks
and a Microsoft 2000 CD, you need only one disk and a recovery CD. The
wizard then restores the system using the option’s backup media.
■
Bootable Tape method (Windows 2000 only):
Instead of booting from a
floppy disk drive or CD, you can boot Windows 2000 based servers using a
tape drive. Recovery can be performed directly from the backup tapes. The
option creates a bootable backup tape for use with compatible tape drives and
only requires the most recent backup media.
Note:
Tape drives must be configured to act as boot devices. Because tape
drive functionality varies by manufacturer, contact your tape drive vendor to
determine if your tape drive capabilities meet your needs.
Windows XP and Windows 2003
The option supports local and remote disaster recovery, allowing you to get
Windows XP and Windows 2003 configurations back online quickly, accurately,
and safely. To do this, you must have the following:
■
Windows XP or Windows 2003 CD
■
A machine-specific recovery disk
