If the reminder delay has lapsed, by default HP Backup and Recovery displays a pop-up window when users log in. If you do not want all end-users burning recovery media, contact Post-Sales to get a tool that disables the reminder pop-up window. Additionally, you can change the following registry key to stop the reminder program from running: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows \CurrentVersion\Run] "Reminder"=- NOTE: HP highly recommends creating the Recovery Disc Set immediately. Backups See the following sections for information about using backups. Offline backups Offline backup/restore is not required. Most backups are created in Windows and recovered offline in a WinPE environment. The exception is "individual file and folder" backups, which can be created in Windows or WinPE and recovered in Windows (but not in WinPE). Sector or file-based backups Backups are sector or file-based as follows: ● An Entire Drive Backup and the Initial Recovery Point are sector-based backups. ● Subsequent Recovery Points and individual file and folder backups are file-based backups. Integrity validation To validate the integrity of backups, HP Backup and Recovery Manager uses date, time stamp, file size, and attribute checks. Backups and RAID support HP Backup and Recovery Manager supports hardware RAID (available on Workstations) and semihardware RAID (available on select 2006 Desktop models). Software RAID, such as the ability to create dynamic disks and volumes with Microsoft Windows XP, is not supported. Backup option storage location Please see the following information about location of backups: ● For end-user installations, the Initial Recovery Point is always created in the Recovery Partition. ● You can create Entire Drive Backups locally in the user partition or external locations such as a network or other drives. ● You can create Recovery Points in the user partition, on a secondary hard drive, on a the network, or to optical media. 12 HP Backup and Recovery Manager Administrator Guide ENWW
