ASR Recovery

Hi all,

I found the below instructions to perform an ASR Backup. Can you please
advise if the information is correct? I still have to try it out...:


1. PERFORM FULL BACKUP OF EVERYTHING INCLUDING OS, USER FILES AND SYSTEM
STATE

2. STORE BACKUP ON A DIFFERENT HARD DRIVE.

3. RUN NTBACKUP AND PERFORM AN ASR BACKUP. STORE IT ON THE SAME DRIVE WHERE
FULL BACKUP IS STORED OR A SEPARATE TAPE.

4. WHEN PROMPTED, ENTER A FLOPPY DRIVE AND LABEL IT ONCE FINISHED

5. AT THIS POINT ONE MUST HAVE TWO BACKUP COPIES. ONE IS THE NORMAL BACKUP
AND THE OTHER IS THE ASR BACKUP. THESE SHOULD BE STORED ON A MEDIA SEPARATE
FROM THE FAILING ONE; BEING TAPE OR HARD DRIVE.

6. USING THE CD OF THE OPERATING SYSTEM BOOT WITH IT AND WHEN SETUP STARTS
PRESS F2

7. THE SETUP WILL PROMPT TO ENTER THE ASR FLOPPY DISK. DO SO, AND PRESS
ENTER

8. THE RECOVERY PROCESS WILL START. AT ONE POINT YOU HAVE TO REMOVE FLOPPY
AND RESTART. THEN CHOOSE LOCATION OF BACKUP FROM OTHER HARD DRIVE TO PROCEED
WITH RECOVERY

Many thanks
P Smith
