Preparing for Bare Metal Recovery Using 1-Touch for Windows

The 1-Touch Recovery feature recovers a crashed computer in the least amount of time. The operating system of the crashed computer is automatically rebuilt. It is not required to reinstall the individual software packages or operating systems manually.

The ISO file must be of the same service pack version as that of the CommServe computer and the MediaAgent computer.

Important: If you have files that reside in a volume configured to use Microsoft deduplication, then the data is restored in a hydrated state and deduplication is disabled, after the 1-Touch Recovery operation finishes.
