Recovering a System Disk While Booting Remotely

If your computer meets the prerequisites, you can remotely boot it from a backup on your
storage system and recover your system disk or partition. You can recover only your most
recent backup.
Note: If you replace the original hard disk, the new disk must be at least as large as the original
disk. You must also connect the new hard disk to the same location as the original one. If
this is not done, there can be a problem after restoration.
In addition, the system to which you are recovering the data must be identical to the
original system. For example, if the original system had a particular type of network
adapter, the system to which you are recovering the data must have the exact same type of
network adapter. Otherwise, the recovered files do not operate properly.
Prerequisites
Before you recover a disk while booting remotely, the following criteria must be met:
The computer you are remotely booting must be in the same subnet as the storage
system.
Remote boot must be enabled for that computer as described in

At least one backup must have been performed after remote boot was enabled.
The network must have a DHCP server, or your storage system must be configured to
act as a DHCP server as described in
If you plan to remotely boot your computer from a different computer's backup, you
must enter the MAC address of your computer's network interface card (NIC) on the
storage system. For more information, see
