Restoring multiple drives by using a system index file

You can run the Recover My Computer wizard from the Symantec Recovery Disk

to restore a computer that has multiple drives. This type of restore operation uses

a system index file (.sv2i) to reduce the amount of time that is needed to restore

the drives. When a recovery point is created, a system index file is saved with it.

The system index file contains a list of the most recent recovery points, which

includes the original drive location of each recovery point.

If you have suffered a catastrophic hard drive failure, you can also use Symantec

Recovery Disk to perform a bare metal recovery of a computer.

To restore multiple drives using a system index file

Start the computer by using the Symantec Recovery Disk.

See “Starting a computer by using the recovery environment ” on page 142.

Drive letters in the recovery environment might not match those in the

Windows environment.

On the Home panel, click Recover My Computer.

Click Next.

Click View by, and then select System.

Click Browse, locate and select a system file (.sv2i), and then click Open.

The system index file is in the same location as the recovery point location.

If you select a network location, type your network credentials.
