7.Reinstall the Backup software, using the original software and accompanying
documentation.
On a Backup client, you only need access to the Backup binaries. You can run
Backup from the /usr/sbin/nsrdirectory or NFS-mount the binaries from another
system running Backup. Refer to the Solstice Backup 5.1 Installation and Release Notes
for installation instructions. Reinstall any Backup patches you had installed prior to
the disaster.
You might have several different releases of Backup software; reinstall the same
release that was running prior to the disaster or a later release. The release must be
equal to or later than the release used for the backups.
Backupservers only - When you reinstall the Backup server software, Backup
automatically rediscovers indexes and configuration files if they are not corrupted.
Backupclients only - The client system is now ready to recover its data from the
Backup server.
You can also use the following method to access the Backup binaries for recovery. If
you have another system running Backup that is like the system being recovered on
the network, you can NFS-mount the Backup binaries on the damaged system.
For example:
# mount venus:/usr/etc /mnt
# /mnt/recover -s server -q
recover> add /
recover> force
recover> recover
8.Install and configure the SCSI controller and tape device drivers.
