Cloning a Server
The Disaster Recovery process can be used to clone a server in order to apply the
same configuration to one or more servers. To clone a server:
1 Create a disaster recovery image on the source server (refer to Creating the
SnapDRImage and Volume Files).
2 Copy the disaster recovery files from the source server to a client.
3 Perform a disaster recovery restore procedure to each of the clone target servers
using the disaster recovery files from the source server (refer to Restoring
Previous Server Settings to a New Server).
