5.
On Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 systems, the DR OS is loaded
first into memory and then the scope menu is displayed. On other Windows
systems, the scope selection menu is displayed at the beginning of the boot
process.
Select the scope of recovery and press Enter. There are 5 different scopes of
recovery:
• Reboot: Disaster recovery is not performed and the system is restarted.
• Default Recovery: Critical volumes are recovered. All other disks are not
partitioned and formatted and remain empty and ready for Phase 3.
• Minimal Recovery: Only system and boot disks are recovered (available for
EADR and OBDR only).
• Full Recovery: All volumes are recovered, not just the critical ones.
• Full with Shared Volumes: Available for Microsoft Cluster Server (MSCS)
only. This option should be used if all nodes in the MSCS have been struck
by a disaster and you are performing One Button Disaster Recovery of the
first node. It will recover all volumes in the Restore Set including cluster shared
volumes that were locked by the backed-up node at backup time.
TIP:
To enable automatic restore of all shared disk volumes in the MSCS, move
all volumes temporarily to the node, for which you are preparing an OBDR
boot tape. It is not possible to collect enough information to configure disks
in Phase 1 for shared disk volumes that are locked by another node at
backup.
If at least one node is up and running than shared volumes will not be restored
because the node keeps them locked. In this case, you should use Default
Recovery.
Depending on the platform or operating system, there are additional options
available. Some of them are used in cases where the disaster recovery does not
finish completely or requires additional steps:
• Restore BCD: Available only on Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008
systems. If selected, Data Protector also restores the Boot Configuration Data
(BCD) store in advance during the disaster recovery session, before it is
restored in the Data Protector restore session. The option is selected by default.
• Restore DAT: Available only on Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008
systems. If selected, Data Protector also restores Microsoft VSS writers' data
