Creating a legacy boot CD

Before creating a bootable CD, verify that you have done the following:

You have created a legacy SRT that matches the OS version to be restored. If you restore a Windows 2003 Server, you need a Windows 2003 Legacy SRT. To verify, navigate to the Bare Metal Restore Management > Resources > Shared Resource Trees tab on the NetBackup Administration Console. Legacy SRTs are flagged "(Legacy)" in the Name Column.

Note:

BMR 7.0.1 also supports Windows 2008 legacy restore.
You have done a Prepare-To-Restore for the system to be restored. A legacy boot CD is customized for a specific BMR Client system to allow full automation.

See Preparing to restore a client.

To create CD boot media for a Windows client

On the Windows BMR boot server, select Programs > Symantec NetBackup > Bare Metal Restore - Boot Server Assistant from the Start menu. The Bare Metal Restore - Boot Server Assistant screen appears.
Click Shared Resource Tree Administration Wizard.
Click Next on the Welcome screen.
Select the Create a Bootable CD/DVD from a Shared Resource Tree option and click Next.
Select an SRT that is marked "(Legacy)".
Select the Client and Configuration to be restored.
Follow the prompts to create the boot media.
