ACSLS Configuration
ACSLS (StorageTek Automated Cartridge System Library Software) is configured during backup time if all related ACSLS configurations and libraries are saved as part of the Disaster Recovery information. Disaster Recovery restores ACSLS configuration information automatically.
Advanced Mode
Advanced Mode assists you in customizing the restore process.
Alternate Machine Name
The Alternate Machine Name is the hostname of the machine where the shared folder resides. The IP address of this machine can also be used but we do not recommend this, particularly in DHCP environments.
ASDB Recovery Configuration
ASDB Recovery Configuration lets you recover your sessions automatically when you recover a primary or standalone server with Arcserve Backup Database installed locally.
Boot Volume
A boot volume is the disk volume that contains the Windows operating system files and its supporting files.
Bootable CD Method
The Bootable CD method is supported by Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP and uses only one disk and a recovery CD. It supports the protected client computer and the backup server. This method is built on the Windows ASR framework.
Bootable Tape Method
The Bootable Tape method is supported by Windows Server 2003 and can be used to protect only the backup server without having to create a machine specific disk. This method is built on the Windows ASR framework.
Client Agent Service
The Client Agent Service is a critical service used to communicate with backup servers for data recovery. Disaster Recovery will always start this service if the disaster recovery is local. If disaster recovery is remote, you can maintain the connection by clicking the link "Click Here" in the bottom pane of the screen to restart the Client Agent Service.
Cluster Configuration
Cluster Configuration displays in the Pre-flight Check screen if the backup server is a cluster node. If it is a cluster node, WinPE searches for an available cluster virtual node. If the cluster virtual node is available, WinPE DR omits the restore process of the cluster shared disk, otherwise Disaster Recovery will restore the cluster shared disk.
Disaster Recovery
Disaster recovery is a backup and recovery process used to protect computing environments against the loss of data caused by a catastrophic events or natural disasters.
Express Mode
Express Mode recovers the system automatically with minimal user intervention by using the machine default settings stored during backup time.
Hard Disk Status
The Hard Disk Status is a potential item that may show up on the Pre-flight Check screen describing the status of a hard disk. The status can be one of the following:
ISCSI Configuration
ISCSI Configuration enables you to configure ISCSI connections. This screen displays ISCSI connections during backup time and ISCSI connections during disaster recovery time.
Machine Specific Disk
The machine specific disk is the recovery disk used with the Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 installation media and the Arcserve Backup CD to perform disaster recovery using the Bootable CD method.
Note: The Machine Specific Disk (MSD) is also called the Machine Specific Recovery Disk.
Network Status
The Network Status is a potential item that may show up on the Pre-flight Check screen describing the status of the network connection. The status can be one of the following:
Password
The password for the specified user account.
Password Management
Password Management is an item that shows up on the Pre-flight Check screen only if it is used during backup time. A Click Here link appears for you to open the Enter caroot password screen.
Path
The path for the shared folder in which to store the replicated disaster recovery information.
Pre-flight Check
The Pre-flight Check option provides a configuration list for you to detect and resolve potential environment issues. Essentially, for each item selected from the Configuration list, a description of that item is displayed at the bottom of the screen describing the issue.
System Volume
A system volume is the disk volume that contains the hardware-specific files required to start Windows, such as BOOTMGR.
Tape Engine Service
The Tape Engine Service is used only for local Disaster Recovery (DR).
From the Pre-flight Check screen, a Click Here link is displayed at the bottom of the screen to let you restart the Tape Engine Service in order to maintain the connections when there are remote file system devices or data deduplication devices.
USB Backup Device Configuration
The USB Backup Device Configuration is used during backup time where you configure backup devices (for example, tape drives, Iomega changers, and digital storage drives. For some USB backup devices, you may need to install additional drivers.
User Name
The User Name is the user account used to connect to the machine on which the alternate location resides. The domain part of the user name is optional. For example, if the full user account name is domainX\userX, you can enter userX.
WinPE
WinPE (Windows Preinstallation Environment) is a minimal Win32 Operating System that lets you prepare computers for Windows installations, copy disk images from network shared folders, and initiate Windows setup. Arcserve Backup lets you recover Windows Server 2003 and 2008 systems running Windows PE from a disaster using a Windows PE recovery CD.
