Mac version works over network with emergency CD?
Posted: Sat Oct 24, 2009 3:42 pm
The sales pages are all DOWN, like most of the R-TT site. It wouldn't matter, though, because I cannot tell from the info whether the Mac version works over a network or not.
I have downloaded it, and the "connect to remote" option is there, but it never connects to the emergency demo CD and the emergency demo CD never connects to the Mac R-Studio app. Perhaps this is a limitation of the demo, perhaps not. I can't find anything in the manuals that says either way.
Here is the situation, exactly:
I have a FreeNAS server with a software RAID5 array that needs to be recovered. I can boot from the Emergency demo CD (NOT the Agent CD DEMO), and I can get the GUI to scan the drives in question and some files to show up. So far so good.
But I need to recover those files to SOMETHING. In order to do that, I have to buy a license. I only use Mac computers for my desktops. If I buy the Mac version of the software, can I use it's license to recover from the networked NAS box? I have no need to recover data from the Mac, just from the NAS.
I want to buy the software, but I need to know which version I need to do this, as the demo's won't connect...
thanks in advance.
