Creating a Recovery Image for the AS3000
17
Creating a Recovery Image for the AS3000
The Interplay Servers Installer includes a tool for creating a recovery image for the AS3000
server.
The location of your AS3000 recovery image depends on the Windows OS and the Avid
application.
• On Windows 7 systems, the recovery image is on the 16 GB flash drive that ships with the
AS3000 server. Store the flash drive in a safe place.
• For all other systems, the recovery image ships on the D: partition of the system drive. On
these systems, a tool for copying the image to a USB flash drive is located in the following
locations:
- C:\Avid_Recovery_Tool\AvidRecoveryImageTool.exe
-<Interplay Server Installer>
Utilities\AvidRecoveryImageTool.exe
For instructions on how to use the tool, see the Readme in the corresponding folder or see the
AS3000 Setup Guide.
c
For systems that ship with the recovery image on the D: partition, Avid highly recommends
you copy the image to the 16 GB USB flash drive provided with your AS3000.
c
When you perform a full product recovery of the Avid AS3000 system drive, you lose the
product recovery image and data on the D: partition of the system drive.
Upgrading Your System
c
Before you begin, see the Avid Interplay ReadMe for specific instructions on upgrading for
a particular release.
The following items apply to upgrading the components on your Interplay system:
• Back up your Interplay database and any other user data before you upgrade. For
information on backing up your database, see the Avid Interplay Engine and Avid Archive
Engine Administration Guide.
• Use the Interplay Installer software to uninstall the previous versions of software
components. You do not have to use the Control Panel to uninstall unless specifically
instructed to do so in the Interplay Readme.
• Do not uninstall the Avid Interplay Engine or Interplay Archive Engine software unless
instructed by Avid support. Uninstalling the software could require additional steps to
reactivate your database. When upgrading, the installation software takes care of removing
the previous version of the software.
