Hi,

  Apologies, as you are all aware of by now, there is a problem with the 
posting.  The Powerlink team is aware of the issue and working to resolve it.  
In the meantime, the same information is also documented in NetWorker Procedure 
Generator just separated into different use case scenarios.

 

If NPG has not already been downloaded it can be obtained by navigating to:

Home>Support>Product and Diagnostic Tools> NetWorker Procedure Generator on 
Powerlink

 

If you have already installed it, just open NPG and the autoupdate feature will 
provide the new content.  With this release of NPG you will be prompted to 
allow NPG to anonymously provide feedback to track which procedures and 
selections are being generated.  Please select Yes at this prompt.  This will 
allow us to determine which procedures are most commonly used and allow us to 
provide focused future enhancements and new procedures to better serve the NPG 
user base.  If you have issues with the installation or autoudpate feature 
please email pg-feedback AT emc DOT com

 

Here's a summary of all the new procedures released on Friday:

 

Recovering with NetWorker
New procedures surrounding Recover scenarios with NetWorker include:
 
How to restore from a save set which is in an expired state (navigate to 
Recovering with NetWorker ->Restore from a save set in expired state
How to perform a Windows 2008 disaster recovery (navigate to Recovering with 
NetWorker ->Disaster Recoveries ->Windows 2008 Offline Restore)
 
Configuration scenarios
New procedures surrounding common NetWorker configurations include:
 
How to configure VCB backups with NetWorker 7.6 when virtual center is used
How to configure VCB backups with NetWorker 7.6 when virtual center is not used

How to configure Networker 7.6 to backup to an On Premise Atmos device
 How to configure Windows 2008 offline client initiated backups for disaster 
recoveries (navigate to Configuration -> Filesystem Operations)
How to configure Windows 2008 offline server initiated backups for disaster 
recoveries of a new Windows 2008 NetWorker client (navigate to Configuration -> 
Filesystem Operations)
