How our Mac Restore Works
We have implemented a restore process where you can restore your data that has been
backed up. We have not implemented a program where you can recover your Mac
Operating System.
Restoring your Mac from a failed hard drive scenario will involve the following steps:
1. Install the new hard drive
2. Install Mac OS X 10.5 from the "Mac OS X Install Disc"
3. Install Mac OS X operating system updates, to ensure everything is up-to-date
4. Install HP MediaSmart Server Mac Client software
5. Configure HP MediaSmart Server Mac Client settings including: server name,
administrator password, backup location (using the same share that was used for
the backup) and enable backup disk
6. Choose the disk called "Backup to the HP MediaSmart Server" disk in the Time
Machine System Preferences
7. Launch Time Machine and ask to restore to the latest backup
