Disaster Recovery...

I've been doing some badly needed 5.5 disaster recovery testing over the past couple of days. It's gone surprisingly well so far... successful online restores using Arcserve 2000 and Backup Exec v8.6 have been accomplished. I've taken some pretty comprehensive notes, which I'll post here over the next couple of days, just as soon as they've been typed-up, and I'm happy that I could hand them over to my mother to follow.

I'll be doing some offline restores tomorrow, and also hope to play around with Ontrack's great PowerControls application, which can extract data from an unmounted .edb.
