Re: Desaster Recovery for Win2K Clients

2001-08-31 Thread Prather, Wanda

Testing recently I have found that (at least in our environment) bare-metal
restore for Win2K is very sensitive to the combination of client & server
levels we are running.

The basic instructions are in the recently-published REDBOOK "Deploying the
Tivoli Storage Manager Client in a WIn2K Environment" SG24-6141.  You can
download it in .pdf format from www.redbooks.ibm.com, search on the book#.

I have posted my instructions that Ray mentioned, plus some updates (as of
today) from recent testing with later client releases  to
www.coderelief.com.  Click the button for Scripts&Links, then click the link
to TSM SCRIPTS, look for the topic Disaster Recovery.

Volker,

Here is a link to a posting by Wanda Prather to this list made about a
year ago.  It describes a manual process of doing a Bare Metal Restore
for Win2k Professional:
http://msgs.adsm.org/cgi-bin/get/adsm0009/304.html

The Kernel Group has a commercial product called Bare Metal Restore that
completely automates the recovery of a system using the data from TSM.
 The current release works for AIX, Solaris, HP-UX, and NT.  Windows
2000 server is currently in Beta and should be released in mid
September.  Here is a link to TKG's BMR:

Also, http://www.coderelief.com/depot.htm has made their site available to
upload all kinds of different things for TSM. Scripts...SQL
queriesprocedures... Good place to put things and tell the list instead
of a flurry of the 'Me Too!' replies. I believe Wanda put her document
there. Lots of good stuff contributed by the members of this list.
