About recovering the master server disk for Windows
The procedure in this section explains how to recover data if one or more disk partitions are lost on a Windows NetBackup master server.
The following two scenarios are covered:
Windows is intact and not corrupted. The system still starts Windows, but some or all other partitions are lost. NetBackup software is assumed to be lost.
All disk partitions are lost. Windows must be reinstalled, which is a total recovery. These procedures assume that the NetBackup master disk was running a supported version of Windows and that the defective hardware has been replaced.
For NetBackup master and media servers, the directory locations of the NetBackup catalog become an integral part of NetBackup catalog backups. Any recovery of the NetBackup catalog requires the identical directory paths or locations be created before the catalog recovery.
