(Optional) Create a BMR CD/DVD

After the ISO image is created and saved to the specified destination, you can burn this image onto a bootable CD or DVD. You can use this bootable media to initialize the new computer system and allow the bare metal recovery (BMR) process to begin.

To verify that your saved ISO image is always the most up-to-date version:

• Create an ISO image every time you update Arcserve RHA.
• If you saved the ISO image to a remote location, then burn the CD/DVD only to perform a BMR.
• If you have Arcserve RHA installed on multiple computers, create an ISO image (and corresponding CD/DVD) from a known-good computer before performing a BMR. This method ensures that the image includes all latest Arcserve RHA updates.
