Recovery using CD-ROM only (full user
data)
If user data was included in the disaster recovery CD-ROM set and you do not select
the network connection within 30 seconds, disaster recovery runs automatically from
the CD-ROM.
You will probably see a window prompting you to insert DR CDROM #1 and click
the Retry button. This is because the last stage of the mini-OS creation prompted you
to remove all DR media (floppy and CD-ROM).
If the administrator did not include the name and password when creating the
CD-ROM set, you will now see a prompt for your account name and password.
These values must match your account name and password at the time the data set
was created.
Your computer will now display a screen like the one below. Note that the screen has
fewer steps than the screen shown when recovering over a network.
As with recovery over a network, you will see a Recovery Progress window while
your computer is recovering files from the CD-ROM(s). In general, this will be
significantly faster than recovery over a network, but identical screens are used in
both cases.
In both cases, you will be asked to restart your computer once your files have been
