Re: [Networker] Technical advisory out today about Windows 2008 disaster recovery
2009-11-23 12:50:11
I wasn't that lucky... I lost a win2008 server on August 31.... but this
esg was for someone that had a failure even before I lost my system.
I'm glad that EMC has finally released the document.
As we are an educational institution and participate in the Microsoft
Campus Agreement, we may have another option that will allow us to have
an incremental -- but really, this is a BMR (true disaster) recovery
situation that is being addressed.
Of bigger interest to me is that you got an alert -- what signup have I
missed that I'm not getting these alerts?

I didn't experience this problem first hand, it was just an alert sent

how to work out all of the details. I'm just glad that this was sent
out now, not when I was trying to do the restore.

disaster recovery
David,
Thanks for this posting, and sorry you had to be a guinea pig as they
figured out the process!
I had one question that I'm hoping you might answer: After the
restoration
of the WSB backup, have you arrived back at a fully functioning system
drive
as it was at the time of the backup? Because it appears to me that
wbadmin
takes a backup of the entire C: drive...so in essence you are backing up
all
those files twice: once for file-level restores and once for disaster
recovery.
Thanks again,
Greg
