About SANs
and dissimilar system restores
The following information
applies only to Windows clients.
If you perform a dissimilar system restore on
Windows and you want to restore to a SAN disk, you must do the
following:
-
Add the HBA drivers to the restore configuration.
The HBA drivers can be added the same way as any other mass storage
device driver.
-
Reconfigure your SAN so that the HBA in the target
system sees the same devices as the HBA that existed in the source
system.
More information is
available on adding drivers.
