Test the Restoration Process

After thorough testing of the preferred client configuration, completely restore all test computers to the previous client configuration and document the process. The degree to which you need to test and restore the computer depends on the tools available.

1. Perform a complete restoration of operating system files and system capabilities for your old client configuration on the computer running Windows NT Workstation 4.0. If you need to automate the restoration, consider using a commercial backup program, instead of using File Manager or MS-DOS commands to copy files.

2. Evaluate the restoration process for problems. Document the process and the modifications made.

3. Have all members of the installation team participate in installing the preferred configuration on a variety of hardware.
