The software delivery (SD) functionality can restore the state of computers by automatically invoking the reinstall after crash (RAC) feature. This happens when the SD agent reports a new operating system installation. All software that was present earlier will be reinstalled and configured according to the computer's job history stored in the database. During RAC the computer is locked and no other jobs can be initiated.
Generic RAC is accomplished by creating a job container based on the current job history for a target computer. In its nature, it is very similar to creating a job container from a template.
Generic RAC is a function that can be used for all package types (for example, SD, SXP, and MSI items), and is available for operating environments that support the UUID mechanism, that is, all Linux/UNIX and all Windows 32-bit and 64-bit operating environments. Generic RAC can be used to configure and activate procedures.
Note: Software versions that are no longer used but still registered can be excluded from RAC by checking the Exclude from RAC option on the installation procedure.
