Arcserve 7.0 sp4 and Citrix MetaFrame XPE

[zipperhead]

I am doing disaster recovery testing.

Step 1. Restore server using ghost image from cd. The only additional software is arcserve client agent. Boot it up and join the domain. No problem so far.

Step 2. Restore from last full backup. Here is my problem.
Since creating the ghost cd image I have installed citrix.
When I try an run a restore it fails because of an invalid drive specification. Citrix restore is a (J and the base server image is (C. How do I resolve this issue? Thanks!

Take a look in the Restore window under Destination to see if "Restore To Original Location" is being used. If it is uncheck it and select the correct location.

I tried that, it did not work. Keeps telling me invalid drive path.

Hi,

Use "SUBST" to create a virtual drive for the C:
SUBST [drive1: [drive2:]path
drive1: [b/]Specifies a virtual drive to which you want to assign a path.
[drive2:]path[b/] Specifies a physical drive and path you want to assign to

This should resolve the problem

Hi,

Use "SUBST" to create a virtual drive for the C:
SUBST [drive1: [drive2:]path
drive1: [\b]Specifies a virtual drive to which you want to assign a path.
[drive2:]path[\b] Specifies a physical drive and path you want to assign to

This should resolve the problem
