NCR 7773 - Disk Image Backup and NCR Image Recovery Tool

Chapter 5: Disk Image Backup and NCRImage
Recovery Tool
Introduction
This section discusses procedures on how to backup or recover the POS image. The
terminal has a recovery tool that performs a complete backup of the whole HDD/SSD.
This includes the operating system, all files, data and the database itself if it is installed
on the HDD/SSD, making an exact duplicate of everything contained on the terminal.
The NCRImage Recovery Tool uses the Windows Image (.WIM) file format to store the
OS image. This is a file-based format for use with the ImageX and DISM tools that
Microsoft created for use with Windows Vista and later OS versions. The format can
also be used to capture and restore XP-based OS images. More information on the
ImageX tool and .WIM format can be found at:
