Backup and Restore Operations with a Legato NetWorker Client
This section describes special procedures Legato NetWorker users must use in
order to perform backup and restore operations on the Snap Server.
To Add the Snap Server as a Root User

root user. To add the Snap Server root user as one of the administrators, use the
following procedure.
1
Open the NetWorker Administrator application.
2
Click the
Set Up Server
icon.
3
In the Administrator field, enter
root@hostname
,
where
hostname
is the host name of the Snap Server.
4
Click
OK
.
Recover and Retrieve Operations
The Legato NetWorker administrative interface does not support data recovery
operations from a remote client for a Linux-based operating system such as the
GuardianOS. To recover data, you must execute one of the following CLI
commands from an SSH client.
• Recover —
The
recover
command restores data from a normal backup job.
• Nsrretrieve —
The
retrieve
command restores data from an archive.
Use either the
recover
or the
retrieve
command exactly as described below. For
more details on these commands, see the Legato Networker Command Reference .
