Media Recovery - Disk Media

Updated

In the event of a disaster, if the physical disks and mount path folders are accessible, you can recover the data on disk media's using one of the following ways:

Moving Mount Paths

Copy the CV_MAGNETIC folder on the disk volumes to a different location and modify the mount path’s data path to the new location.

When you modify the mount path, make sure the following:

  • The folder or file structure within the CV_MAGNETIC folder must be maintained in the new location.

  • The file system (NTFS, EXT3, etc.) in the new disk volume should be the same.

For instructions, see Modifying the Mount Path.

Re-establishing Data Paths for Shared Disk Folders

After recovering a MediaAgent with a new name, add the new MediaAgent’s data path to the shared disk device.

For instructions, see Sharing Mount Paths.
