I have deployed TSM on well over 200 Windows servers and performed many types of disaster recovery tests. The same goes for TDP for Exchange, Oracle and SQL server. Recently, however, someone purchased a MacBook for managing iPads. I have a backup schedule in place and now the time has come to test disaster recovery onto a second MacBook purchased specifically for this purpose.
The restore failed spectacularly; the administrative user does no seem to be able to restore anything system related and we ended up skipping about 21000 files/directories and probably leaving things in a complete mess. How do I get around this problem? I know next to nothing about MacOS except it's based on BSD so my only hope is that some of my Linux experience can prove helpful.
For starters, is there a way I can get MacOS to run the restore task as "root"? Would this even solve the problem?
