Chapter 4: Backing Up and Restoring System Software
Restoring a 3070
System from a Full
Backup Tape
Introduction
For instructions on restoring selected data, see
Restoring Selected Data from a Backup Tape on
page 4-14.
Restore from full backup or a disaster recovery tape
only if:
■ the operating system will not boot.
■ the main system disk drive fails.
■ the entire file structure is corrupted or lost.
CAUTION
✸
If you are restoring a system from a disaster
recovery or full backup tape, TapeWare erases and
reformats all disk drives, reinstalls the operating
system, and overwrites the hard disk drives with
data from the backup or disaster recovery tape.
NOTE
When you received your system you should have
made recovery media by following the procedures
in sections Creating Boot Recovery Diskettes on
page 4-6 and Making a Full Backup Tape on
page 4-9. If you did not do so, contact your
Agilent board test representative.
Prerequisites
The disaster recovery process requires:
■ Administrator log on privileges for your 3070
Windows system.
■ ADMIN log on privileges for TapeWare
