Description

When creating an SRT on a Windows boot server, a version of Windows ADK 1607 is automatically downloaded and installed.

  • This behavior is common from NetBackup 10.1 to 11.0.
  • The BMR boot media created using this SRT will be based on the Windows ADK 1607 version, so the BMR restore environment must have hardware that supports the Windows ADK 1607 version (Windows 2016 equivalent).
     

Note:
In some environments where there is no Internet connection, the ADK must be downloaded and installed manually.
In this case, the Windows ADK 1607 version must still be installed manually from this location:
