[Veritas-bu] BMR 6.0MP3 Fast Windows Restore CD/DVD

Karl
Excellent news - one of my gripes with going to 6.0 was the requirement to
use Floppies, especially as our servers do not COME with any floppies now
:-)
 
Still not moving to 6.0 until I see a more stable environment. But will
review the TechNote.
 
Thanks again.

Sometimes it pays to read the release notes on Maintenance Packs. In this
case MP3. 

"All Windows BMR Boot Servers now contain a new wizard to assist in 
   creating a CD image to be used for the Fast Restore feature.   

   This new feature is an exciting fast-windows-restore feature to the Bare 
   Metal Restore (BMR) option.  This feature can perform a complete restore 
   of a Windows system in as little as 15 minutes.  This feature means it is

   no longer necessary to create DOS-based floppies or CDs.   In addition, 
   this new feature enables BMR to operate in a low-infrastructure mode, 
   where the BMR Boot Server, Windows Shared Resource Tree, and the 
   Prepare-To-Restore step are no longer mandatory to restore a Windows 
   System.   

   For a description of how to use this new feature, along with feature 
   requirements and limitations, please refer to the Symantec TechDoc
#283726. 
   This document can be accessed on the Symantec Support Web site using the 
   following URL:

No More DOS boot disk!
