Abstract
Network configuration details associated with a host are collected with each bare metal recovery (BMR) backup of the host. The network configuration details are stored in backup storage with each BMR backup copy. A target host is booted into a preinstallation environment. The target host is configured into a DHCP mode to allow the target host to establish a network connection to a backup management server. Details about the host are received from a user. A listing of BMR backup copies corresponding to the host details are retrieved from the backup management server. A selection of a BMR backup copy to be restored onto the target host is received. Network configuration details corresponding to the selected BMR backup copy are downloaded from backup storage. A recovery wizard at the target host is populated with the network configuration details.
