If a disaster occurs on a computer before you create the recovery media for it, you can still create recovery media if you made a full backup of the computer before the disaster.

Note: |
For remote computers, this feature is available only if the Remote Agent version 10.0 or higher is installed on the remote computer. |
When you create a full backup of a computer, IDR creates a *.dr file that contains system and catalog information. IDR uses the *.dr file to create the recovery media needed to recover the computer.
If a disaster occurs on the local media server, you can create recovery media for it after a disaster if you have another media server and a copy of the *.dr file from the local media server in an alternate location. Also, you can use the Remote Administrator to recover the local media server.
