Knox Arkeia
Preparing for disaster recovery
Prepare your RaQ XTR for disaster recovery by performing the following steps:
1.
Perform an OS restore to wipe the hard disk drive and return the RaQ XTR
to a factory-fresh state.
2.
Configure the RaQ XTR through the Setup Wizard and return it to the
network. The RaQ XTR must be able to communicate with the backup
server.

If possible, configure the RaQ XTR to use a network time protocol (NTP)
server to set the clock on the server.
On the Server Desktop, select Control Panel > Time to configure the time
settings or to specify an NTP server.
4.
Select Backup and Restore > Knox Arkeia and configure the Knox Arkeia
client on the RaQ XTR.
