How to Complete the Recovery of the Backup Server Data

The information in this section only applies to Backup servers.

After you recover the server's indexes and configuration files, you can recover the remainder of the server data that includes the client indexes by using the nwrecover program.

To recover the remainder of the Backup data, follow these steps:

1. Log on as root.

2. Open the nwrecover program.

3. Click the Recover speedbar button to open the Recover window.

   Backup displays the system's directory structure.

4. Select and mark the Backup directory for recovery.

5. Deselect the following directories and files before you recover the remainder of the server data:

   • /nsr/index/server-name file - recovered when you ran the mmrecov command.

   • /nsr/res and the /nsr/mm directories - recovered when you ran the mmrecov command.

     If you recover the /nsr/res directory and you used the autochanger to perform the disaster recovery, you will lose any special configurations you created when you added and configured the autochanger for recovery.

6. Click the Start speedbar button to begin the recovery.

7. Restart nsrd and nsrexecd.

   After you recover the server data, inventory the autochanger so Backup knows which slots contain which volumes.

   The Backup server should be restored to the status it had prior to the disk crash.
