162 | Protecting Workstations and Servers
Data restored from the recovery point includes drivers for the hardware previously
in place. If performing a bare metal restore to dissimilar hardware, then you must
also inject storage controller drivers into the operating system being restored using
the URC after the data has been restored to the drive, This allows the restored
operating system to boot using the new set of hardware. Once the OS is booted after
the restore, you can then download and install any additional drivers needed by the
OS to interact with its new hardware.
For more information, see “Injecting Drivers to Your Target Server” on page 167.
