Step 8. Finish Working with Veeam Recovery Media

When the restore operation completes, finish working with Veeam Recovery Media and start your operating system.

 

 

Step 8. Finish Working with Veeam Recovery Media Important

Depending on the system architecture, before you reboot the recovered machine, mind the following:

  • [For Oracle Solaris on x86 architecture] You must manually change the primary boot device to hard drive on the machine, otherwise after reboot the machine will boot from Veeam Recovery Media again.
  • [For Oracle Solaris on SPARC architecture] Veeam Agent will automatically change the boot order on the machine, and after reboot the machine will boot from hard drive. However, if your machine is managed by the Oracle VM Manager, the next time you restart the machine from Oracle VM Manager, the boot order settings defined in the Oracle VM Manager will apply. Make sure that in the Oracle VM Manager, the boot order for the recovered machine is set to hard drive.

Step 8. Finish Working with Veeam Recovery Media Note

Veeam recovery environment starts in the machine RAM. Bare metal recovery (BMR) logs are saved to the /var/log/veeam directory of the recovery system OS file system and to the repository that contains the backup file you used for data restore. If the repository does not support log export, you risk losing all BMR logs because local logs are lost on system reboot. We recommend saving them to a remote location or to the recovered file system for further reference.

 

  1. Reboot the machine.
  2. Wait for the Oracle Solaris operating system to start.
  3. Verify network settings. If necessary, reconfigure the network interface.
  4. [Optional] If Veeam Agent on the original machine had integration with Veeam backup server, verify connection to the server by running the following command:

veeamconfig vbrserver resync

If the machine obtained a different ID after recovery, Veeam Agent may have a problem connecting to Veeam backup server. To fix the issue, use the following command:

veeamconfig vbrserver edit --password

Veeam Agent prompts you to re-enter the password for the backup server account. After Veeam backup server confirms the password, the integration gets restored.
