3. What is BMR?
Bare Machine Recovery (BMR) is a term used for the recovery of a machine to
new (bare) hardware. Recovery includes the operating system and application
configurations. A rebuild can take several hours and can require a high level of
technical knowledge.
Machine failure may be caused by a failure of the server hardware (disk or
controller failure, physical damage etc.) or a corruption of the operating system
or applications (virus, user or disk errors etc.)
Regular recovery does not provide BMR functionality and System
Administrators therefore are required to manually reinstall and configure the
operating systems, middleware and applications. A regular recovery process
can take hours and have many steps that require technical documentation,
license keys and installation disks and knowledge.
