Warning: Store the password in a secure place. Passwords are case-sensitive. When

you access or restore a password encrypted recovery point, Backup Exec System

Recovery prompts you for the case-sensitive password. If you do not type the

correct password or you forget the password, you cannot open the recovery point.

Symantec Technical Support has no method for opening an encrypted recovery

point.

Besides bit strength, the make-up of the password can improve the security of

your data.

For better security, passwords should use the following general rules:

■ Avoid using consecutive, repeating characters (for example, BBB or 88).

■ Avoid using common words that you would find in a dictionary.

■ Use at least one number.

■ Use both uppercase and lowercase alpha characters.

■ Use at least one special character such as ({}[],.<>;:’"?/|\`~!@#$%^&*()_-+=).

■ Change the password after a set period of time.

Verifying a recovery point after creation

If you selected the Verify recovery point after creation option on the Options page

of the Define Backup Wizard, the recovery point is checked to see that all of the

files that make up the recovery point are available for you to open. Internal data

structures in the recovery point are matched with the data that is available. Also,

the recovery point can be uncompressed to create the expected amount of data

(if you selected a compression level at the time of creation).

Note: The time required to create a recovery point is doubled when you use the

Verify recover point after creation option.

To verify the integrity of a recovery point

On the Tools page, click Run Recovery Point Browser.

Select a recovery point, and then click Open.

In the tree panel of the Recovery Point Browser, select the recovery point.

For example: C_Drive001.v2i.
