The host name of the remote partition that has a DVD drive assigned to it is
mars.
– This is the partition from which the new partition is installed. Therefore,
this partition is the install server to the new partition.
– This partition is a backup server to pluto.
Because it is not possible to boot a partition from a DVD device assigned to
another partition, a network boot of the new partition is required. After the
partition has been booted over the network, you may simply direct SysBack to
restore from the remote DVD device. In order to perform a SysBack network
boot, you must complete a one-time configuration procedure.
Figure 20-11 illustrates the relationships between the partitions for this example.
