hello,
i'm a programmer in a company that uses Brightstor. i've asked our network admin to recover a file that is a windows system file. To describe it in basic terms:
Server name: A
File to recover: c:/windows/system32/myFile
Brightstor successfully made the backup. Now i've asked our admin if he can recover the file. He tells me that:
1. because this is a system file, Brightstor provides no mechanism to restore just this file. You have to restore the entire c:/windows/system32 folder.
2. Brightstor can only restore to the server that it backed files up from. (In my example, Brightstor can only put the files from tape backup to Server A.)
I'm wondering:
1. is there any possible way to recover just the system that i need?
2. is there any possible way to restore from tape to a different server besides Server A?
i'd greatly appreciate any help. thanks.
