If you used the IDR option to prepare disaster recovery media for the shared disks, you must use a manual process to recover Backup Exec on a shared disk.

  1. Replace the shared disk if necessary, and add that disk to the cluster as a disk resource.

  2. Reinstall the cluster-aware version of Backup Exec for Windows Servers on the cluster using the same information used in the original installation.

    See Installing Backup Exec to a local computer.
