A Rapid Recovery splash screen displays and a terminal window opens, displaying the IP address and
authentication password for the machine.
NOTE:
A new temporary password is generated each time the machine is started with the Live DVD
image.
3. Write down the IP address and the authentication password displayed on the introduction screen. You will
need this information later during the data recovery process to log back on to the console.

Connecting to the BMR target from the Rapid Recovery Core
After you start the target Linux machine with the Live DVD, this machine is ready for you to connect to it from the
Core and begin the bare metal restore process. You can perform this process using any one of two methods:
•
Launching a restore from the Rapid Recovery Core Console. For more information, see
Launching a bare metal restore
•
Launching a Restore from the command Line using the aamount utility. For more information, see
metal restore for a Linux machine using the command line

Managing Linux partitions
When performing a BMR, the destination drive onto which you will be restoring data must have the same
partitions as in the recovery point you are restoring. You may need to create partitions to meet this requirement.
You can launch the restore from the command line using the aamount utility, or you can launch the restore from
the Rapid Recovery Core Console. If restoring using the user interface, you must first mount the partitions.

Creating partitions on the destination drive
Often, when performing a BMR, the destination drive is a new volume that may consist of a single partition. The
drive on the destination machine must have the same partition table as in the recovery point, including the size of
the volumes. If the destination drive does not contain the same partitions, you must create them before performing
the bare metal restore. Use the fdisk utility to create partitions on the destination drive equal to the partitions on
the source drive.
CAUTION:
The procedure below is just an example. Customer environments differ. You should change the
commands you use to match the specifics for your environment.
