Installing to a remote system using a clone CD image

You can use a clone CD image to install a remote system.

To install to a remote system using a clone CD image

  1. Begin the Backup Exec installation.

    See Installing Backup Exec to remote computers.

  2. Add the remote systems to which you are installing.

  3. When the Remote Installation Types dialog box appears, select from one of the following options:

    Remote install with licensed options

    Select this option if you want to enter license keys for the remote systems. During the install, a dialog asking for the license keys for the remote system appears.

    Remote install using the same install settings as the local computer

    Select this option if you want to install remotely using all of the installation options installed on the local system. When this option is used, you cannot change any settings on the remote system. For example, if you have installed the Intelligent Disaster Recovery option locally, this option will also be installed remotely.

    Remote install from clone file settings

    Select this option if you want to install remotely using the clone file settings that may be contained on a clone CD image or could also be contained in a previously created parameter file.

    See Creating and using installation parameter files.

    When this option is selected, you will be able to browse to a parameter file.

  4. Follow the on-screen prompts.
