Chapter 1.
Introduction
The objective of this redbook is to provide materials describing how to perform a Bare Machine Recovery using Cristie Bare Machine Recovery (CBMR) version 4.0.2 and IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (ITSM) version 5.2. In this chapter, we discuss the following sections: Cristie Bare Machine Recovery Overview IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Overview CBMR with ITSM An overview on how Bare Machine Recovery is done We assume readers will have a basic knowledge of the Microsoft Windows operating system, Cristie Bare Machine Recovery, and IBM Tivoli Storage Manager. Readers can access the following Web sites for further information:

hardware provide higher levels of application and hardware integration with the data protection process. The base functions provided by IBM Tivoli Storage Manager include: Backup and Restore: The backup process creates a copy of the file or application data that can be recovered if the original data is lost or destroyed. Unlike other backup applications, Tivoli Storage Manager implements a progressive backup methodology to move data quickly and reliably. Using progressive backup, the number of file versions maintained by Tivoli Storage Manager and the length of time they are retained can be specified by the storage administrator. Backups can be scheduled, performed manually from the Tivoli Storage Manager client interface, or performed remotely using a Web-based interface. The restore process transfers a backup data copy from the Tivoli Storage Manager server-managed storage onto a designated machine. Archive and Retrieval: The archive process creates a copy of a file or a set of files, and stores it as a unique object for a specified period of time. This function is useful for maintaining copies of vital records for historical purposes. Like the backup process, the archive process can be scheduled, performed manually from the Tivoli Storage Manager client interface, or performed remotely using a Web-based interface. The retrieval process transfers the archival data copy onto a designated machine. Instant Archive and Rapid Recovery: IBM Tivoli Storage Manager allows for the creation of a complete set of client files, called a backup set, on the Tivoli Storage Manager server system using the most recent backup versions stored by the server. In a process called Instant Archive, a backup set is used to retain a snapshot of a client file system for a designated period of time. The Rapid Recovery process allows you to copy backup sets onto portable media for LAN-free recovery of a client system.
Chapter 1. Introduction
4. Reboot into Windows mode, with which the DR wizard does the following: Formats the data partition to fat16 or fat32 Converts fat16 and fat32 to NTFS then reboots 5. Restore the system to most recent state using ITSM backup/archive client.

Chapter 2.
CBMR/ITSM installation
In this chapter, we show the following sections: System requirements CBMR/ITSM setup ITSM client installation ITSM client configuration CBMR installation CBMR storage device configuration CBMR Disaster Recovery system We assume readers have a ITSM server configured and running. We will not show the installation and configuration of the ITSM server. The Bare Machine Recovery of the ITSM Server itself, and the recovery of the ITSM database are not discussed in this book.

6. In this Setup Type screen, select Custom to install some of the ITSM Client additional program features: Administrative Client Command Line Files to connect to the ITSM Server to perform administrative ITSM commands Open File Support - allow Open File backup 7. Click Next to continue:
Figure 2-6 Select Custom to install ITSM Client additional program features
Note: In the typical setup, both ITSM backup/archive and API programs install automatically. To install only the ITSM API, choose Custom setup from the Setup Type selection screen, and deselect the Backup-Archive Client files.
9. Once the ITSM Client installation is complete, we have to configure the environment variables in the Windows to make it more convenient to use the command line. 10.We need to set the following environment variables in the Windows: PATH: This is the default search path the operating system uses to locate executable files. Set this to include the fully qualified paths of the client installation directories, for example, SET PATH=%PATH%;C:\Program Files \Tivoli \TSM \baclient. DSM_CONFIG: Set this environment variable to the fully qualified path and filename of the client options file, for example, DSM_CONFIG=C:\Program Files \Tivoli \TSM \baclient \dsm.opt. DSM_DIR: Set this environment variable to the directory where the client message file dsc*.txt is located, for example, DSM_DIR=C:\Program Files \Tivoli \TSM \baclient. DSM_LOG: Set this environment variable to the fully qualified path where you want the error log files to reside, for example, DSM_LOG=C:\Program Files \Tivoli \TSM \baclient\log.

11.Reboot the system. We have completed the ITSM Client installation, we will proceed to the next section to configure the ITSM Client.
11
Note: In regards to passwords, consider the following: 1. Automatic password generation for the ITSM API client to be use with CBMR is not supported. 2. If a password expiration period for a CBMR/TSM API client node is used, the password has to be set in PC_BaX every time it expires.
3. Next, register the ITSM backup/archive client from the ITSM Server Web administration console. Now, we have both the ITSM backup/archive client and ITSM API client registered in the ITSM Server.
12

Note: Use different filespaces under the same node to maintain different active backup sets. It is also possible to use one node for all the systems backups and each of the systems data can be stored under a different filespace. However, if the node is deleted, all systems backup data will be lost. 4. Select ITSM Device and click Next to continue.

Restoration
In this chapter, we show the restoration of the system Window operating system using the following methods: Restoration using three CBMR DR floppy diskettes (boot, system, configuration) Restoration using CBMR CD-ROM and CBMR DR configuration floppy diskette Restoration using CBMR CD-ROM and network share configuration After the restoration of the Windows core operating system, we use the ITSM backup/archive client to restore the system data to the most recent system state. We show how to edit the CBM.INI to perform a complete restoration with the TSM script after the recovery of the Windows core operating system.
47
4.1 Restoration using three CBMR DR floppy diskettes (boot, system, configuration)
Before we begin the restoration using three CBMR DR floppy diskettes, we need to create the CBMR DR boot and system diskettes. Please see Appendix B.1, Creating CBMR DR Boot and System diskettes on page 80 for the creation of both the CBMR DR Boot and system diskettes. The device drivers are not copied onto the CBMR floppy configuration diskette during the creation of the floppy configuration diskette. In order to perform a restoration of the Windows core (or boot-up) OS from the three CBMR DR floppy diskettes, we need to copy all the necessary drivers from the CBMR CD-ROM to the CBMR floppy configuration diskette. In this example, we need to copy the Ethernet card driver from the CBMR CD-ROM folder, E:\dr\config\modules\e100.o (assuming E is the CD-ROM drive), to the floppy configuration diskette folder A:\modules. Once the driver is copied onto the CBMR DR floppy configuration diskette, we can perform the recovery of the client system as follows: 1. Insert the CBMR DR boot floppy diskette. Wait until the prompt appears on the monitor screen to insert CBMR DR system disk. 2. Insert the CBMR DR system diskette and press Enter. Wait until the prompt appears on the monitor screen to insert CBMR DR configuration disk. 3. Insert CBMR DR configuration diskette and press Enter. This will load the configuration information from the configuration diskette, and it will load the PC-BaX Disaster Recovery Console.
4. Select option 4. Hardware Drivers and press Enter. 5. Select option 5. List Loaded Modules and press Enter.
48
IBM Tivoli Storage Manager: Bare Metal Restore for Windows with Cristie BMR
