What is Bare Metal Restore

Bare Metal Restore(BMR) is the process of reformatting a server from scratch after a catastrophic failure. In conventional methods, the process typically involves reinstalling the operating system and software applications and then, if possible, restoring data and settings. In2net Server Backup solution (powered by Idera) will be able to restore servers directly from disk-based backup. There is no need to first partition your hard drive then re-install the operating system.

To use BMR, you will need to download a Boot CD media from Disaster Recovery Boot Media section  in our Download Area on In2net website.

The following is an overview of entire bare metal restore process.
1. Using Recovery Boot Media

3. Launch the Backup Agent for BMR
4. Launch the BMR process from Backup Manager
