Resetting the backup servers
CAUTION: Before you start the factory reset for Backup Servers, make sure that you are using a Microsoft System Center
Server product key, the Volume License Key. See the
Solution Integration Document
(SID) for Volume License Key information. If
you are not using the Volume License Key, Backup Server deployment will fail after a reset as well.
1 Open iDRAC consoles for each physical host. The Field Engineer (FE) must be connected using the FE laptop. It is connected to Port
TE 1/40 on one of the Top of Rack switches. Congure the laptop with the IP in the Solution Integration Document.

<Prex>
B01 with an account that has Local Administrator permissions, for example, as a member of the
<Prex>
-Ops-Admins group.

data.
