Restoring a Cyber Recovery virtual appliance deployment after a disaster

Return your system to the state that it was in after the Cyber Recovery virtual appliance deployment. Then, use the crsetup.sh setup script with the recover option to perform a disaster recovery.

1. Redeploy the Cyber Recovery virtual appliance.
   You can either:

   • Download and deploy the version of the Cyber Recovery virtual appliance that you want to run.
   • Deploy the version of the Cyber Recovery virtual appliance that is currently in the Cyber Recovery vault. If necessary, update to a later version.
2. Start the Cyber Recovery software restore procedure:
   1. Run the crsetup.sh setup script:

      crsetup.sh --recover

   2. Type y to continue:

       Do you want to continue [y/n]:

   3. Type y to confirm and continue:

      Are you REALLY sure you want to continue [y/n]:

   4. Type the full path to the Cyber Recovery backup tar package location, for example:
      /tmp/cr_backups/cr.19.2.1.0-3.2019-09-19.08_02_09.tar.gz
   The Cyber Recovery restore operation proceeds and then returns a success message when it completes:

   19.02.19 08_45_20 :
   19.02.19 08_45_20 : Cyber Recovery has been successfully recovered onto this system
   19.02.19 08_45_20 :

3. Log in to the Cyber Recovery UI or the CRCLI and validate that the previous installation has been restored.
