The Symantec Recovery Disk CD includes a pcAnywhere thin host. It lets you
remotely access a computer in the recovery environment. The pcAnywhere thin
host contains the minimum settings that are needed to support a single-use remote
control session. The thin host requires an IP address for hosting a remote control
session.
Note: You cannot deploy a thin host to Symantec Recovery Disk. The thin host
can only be started from the Symantec Recovery Disk CD to host a remote control
session in Symantec Recovery Disk. The thin host in Symantec Recovery Disk
does not support file transfers and cannot be used to add drivers for network or
storage devices.
After you start the thin host from Symantec Recovery Disk, it waits for a
connection from a remote computer. You can connect to the thin host to remotely
manage a recovery or to perform other tasks in Symantec Recovery Disk. You
must use Symantec pcAnywhere to connect to the thin host.
To start the pcAnywhere thin host
1 On Network panel, in the recovery environment, click Start the pcAnywhere
Thin Host.
