The fix for us was to install a fresh copy of the Os and ap0plications. We
then restored the application data. Never an easy process. We were on
support line for 6 hours doing this with Symantec support and everything
they had us do would never allow the server to be restored in full and have
it boot with all the apps in tack etc. After wasting so much time we
installed a fresh copy of the server build by image and reinstalled the
apps. Took about 2 hours and the server was back up. It was not a happy
experience.

Good luck. This has never worked for us. Very rarely do we get a full system
restore of windows and have it boot just fine.

I did the restore as per the DR document. Now the host is continuously
rebooting. I found the following technote, Will give it a shot.

It should be covered in the disaster recovery document....
 
But as long as you have a bare OS and the NetBackup client is installed and
the client has been configured as before, you should be able to perform a
FULL RESTORE from a last known backup tape. 
 
The Restore can be carried out on the client, or the MASTER SERVER that
usually performs the backup for this client.
 
Come back to the list if we can assist

One of our Windows system crashed during patch install. It has been rebuilt
now. I need to restore the OS from tape. I am looking for a procedure. Is
there a technote or a procedure I can follow ?
 
Much appreciated.
 
TIA
