• if the Minimal Recovery option has been selected during EADR or OBDR,
meaning that only boot and system disks would be recovered.
When omnidr is used on a dual-boot machine, it is strongly recommended to
use the -no_cleanup option.
-msclusdb
If this option is specified, omnidr restores the Microsoft Cluster database.
GeneralOptions
-target hostname
Specifies the target system name. All objects will be restored to a computer
specified by the -target parameter. If this parameter is not specified, the data
will be restored to the system specified in the SRD file.
This option is used in two cases:
• During Disk Delivery disaster recovery the disks being restored can be installed
into a client with a different hostname as original, therefore the name of the
client must be specified.
• During Manual Disaster Recovery, it is possible, that DHCP protocol is installed
(for example, that is the default choice in Windows 2000 setup). In this case,
the hostname can be generated automatically by the DHCP server and is
different from the original system hostname.
-local
Forces offline recovery from a locally attached device. The devbra command
is used to automatically scan for and configure attached devices. A list of detected
devices is displayed if more than one is found and you must select one of them.
If this option is not specified, the device used for the restore is going to be the
same as the device used during backup.
-report level
Specifies the error level report. This is useful if you want to reduce the number
of messages written during recovery. For example, since practically all OS files
are overwritten during the active OS recovery, this means that innumerable
warnings bringing no useful information will be displayed, thus slowing down
the recovery. Messages are classified (in ascending order) as: 1 (warning), 2
(minor), 3 (major) and 4 (critical). For example, if 3 is selected, only major and
critical messages are reported. By default, all messages are reported.
NOTES
The omnidr command is available on Windows systems only.
