Specifying the UNIX and Linux boot interface
UNIX and Linux clients must use a single network interface to boot from and to restore through. The Bootable column in the Network Interfaces dialog box shows the interface that is configured as the boot interface. If your restore configuration includes more than one network interface, you can specify which one to use for the restore.
Table: Bootable network interfaces helps you to determine the correct interface.
Table: Bootable network interfaces
To specify the UNIX and Linux boot interface
- In the New Network Information window of the Network Interfaces property sheet, right-click the interface that you want to use as the boot interface.
- Select Change from the shortcut menu.
- In the Map or Change Interface dialog box, click Bootable.
- Click OK.
Note:
In case target hardware is booted using different network Interface for recovery than the one shown as Bootable in BMR client configuration, then recovery may fail
