The fact that you are in a boot cycle seems to indicate that something
in the restore is causing a Blue Screen and you had the setting of
Automatically restart enabled (this is the Default) under the advanced,
startup and recovery options in system properties.
First thing I would do is turn this off so that you can see the break
code on the blue screen. Next I would make sure that the machine you are
restoring to has the partitions ordered in the same way as it did prior
to the rebuild.
One common cause of this is a change in the directory Windows was
installed in, moving from C:\Winnt to C:\Windows will case the boot
cycle as you described below.
This does work for W2K doing it exactly as you describe, however one
thing I am unclear on:
"After a few second, before or after I could ran again the w2koption
-restore -same_hardware 1 command, the W2K goes in an eternal reboot
cycle, and I don't know what is happening ???"
Are you saying that it reboots on its own without user intervention?
Thanks

I believe the way you need to do that if you are not doing BMR is to
install your indiws into a different folder than the origional folder.
Instead of winnt or windows try installing the fresh install of windows
into a folder called restore. What happens is if you are using the
origional paths then as you restore you overwrite files that are
critical and will cause that issue.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] pb restoring system_state of Windows 2000 SP4
Hi,
Help please...
My environment is:
Master server Solaris 10 NetBackup 5.1 MP5 or 6.0 MP4
Client W2K SP4 client Netbackup 5.1MP5
I try to do a system restore of a W2K SP4 NetBackup client by
running the following process:
- I reinstall on the same hardware system a fresh W2K SP4 server
with the same partitionning and without integrating in a specific
Windows domain.
- I reinstall NetBackup client 5.1MP5
- I run on the client the commande w2koption -restore
-same_hardware 1
- From the NetBackup Administrator java interface, I choose all
the drives and the System_State, select Restore everything to its
original location and choose Overwrite existing files
- The restore run with success.
After a few second, before or after I could ran again the
w2koption -restore -same_hardware 1 command, the W2K goes in an eternal
reboot cycle, and I don't know what is happening ???
Can somebody help me ??
Is it correct to restore System_State withe the "Overwrite
existing files" option ??
It seems that with W2003 client, I don't have this problem.
Best regard,
Gilles.
