Launching a Bare Metal Restore for a Linux Machine using the Command Line

Once the Live DVD ISO image is accessible on the machine on which you want to

perform a BMR, and the number and size of volumes matches between the target

machine and the recovery point you want to restore to bare metal, then you can

launch a restore from the command line using the

aamount utility.

If you want to perform a BMR restore using the AppAssure 5 Core Console UI, see

“Selecting a Recovery Point and Initiating Rollback for BMR” on page 165.

This task is a step in “Roadmap for Performing a Bare Metal Restore on Linux Machines”

on page 171. It is part of the process for “Launching a Bare Metal Restore for a Linux
