6. In order to re-create disk partitions to their initial state prior to the disaster, record
the following information for each partition (it will be needed during the recovery
process):
• partitions length and order
• drive letters assigned to the partitions
• partitions filesystem type
This information is stored in the SRD file. The -type option in the diskinfo section
of the SRD file shows the partition filesystem type for a particular partition:
