The server administrator can then schedule a time to perform data recovery on the failed internal system drive. The recovery tools BounceBack offers are: Full System Recovery, QuickRestore (files and folders).
Page 14 The server can then be restarted from the internal drive. Instant Server Recovery: When started from the direct attached backup device, BounceBack will pop up a message with two buttons: Continue or Restore. The Continue button allows the server to continue operating externally.
Page 15 Disaster Recovery Methods QuickRestore: BounceBack stores data in native file format. Use the built-in QuickRestore or Windows Explorer to perform file and folder level restoration only. These options will not restore the operating system or applications. Advanced Server Restore Techniques: The Rescue Disk and Instant Server Recovery can be used to copy a direct attached storage device onto an internal RAID configuration.
