Review the Prerequisites

Before you restore data to a bare metal machine, consider the following points:

• Bare Metal Restore applies only to full system scenarios that have performed a failover or switchover.
• Bare Metal Restore supports both basic and dynamic disks.
• You have created the Bootable RHA BMR ISO image.
• When you upgrade the RHA engine from earlier releases (r16 or earlier) to r16 SP2 or later, you must synchronize the master and replica at least once to complete the upgrade.
