Bare Metal Recovery

With NAKIVO Backup & Replication, you can recover an entire computer system to “bare metal” on the same hardware using configured bootable media. In order to proceed with bare-metal recovery, first ensure that:

• You have already created a backup for the source physical machine.

• The created source physical machine backup is available in a supported Backup Repository.

• Bootable media has been created successfully by the product or manually using a downloaded .iso file.
