ASR is used to perform (a part of) preparation for a disaster and repartitioning and
reformatting the boot partition. Data Protector provides all other features such as
easy central administration, high performance backup, high availability support,
easy restore, monitoring, reporting and notifications, and so on.
The following sections explain the requirements, limitations, preparation, and recovery
pertaining to Automated System Recovery on Windows systems. See also “Advanced
recovery tasks” on page 96.
Requirements
• Data Protector Automatic Disaster Recovery component must be installed on
systems for which you want to enable recovery using ASR. See the HP Data
Protector installation and licensing guide.
• If you are using a firewall, ports 1071 and 1073 must be open. ASR does not
support the OB2PORTRANGE and OB2PORTRANGESPEC variables.
Hardware configuration
• The hardware configuration of the target system must be identical to that of the
original system, except for hard disk drives, video cards and network interface
cards. If you have replaced a network card or a video card, you will have to
manually configure it.
• Floppy disk drive must be installed.
