Creation Process

  1. Start the Wizard: Launch the wizard and select [Create Restore Optical Disk].

  2. Insert Source Deploy USB Media: Connect the source Deploy USB media to your computer.

    Select the source media and click [OK]. Ensure the master image is embedded in the source media.

  3. Prepare Writable Blank Media: Insert writable blank media into the optical drive. Supported formats include DVD-R, DVD-R DL, DVD-RW, BD-R, BD-R DL, and BD-RE.

    • Drive Selection: The wizard auto-selects an optical drive when connected.

    • Volume Label: Assign a label to the recovery disk. For multiple media, labels are numbered automatically.

    • Verify Disk: Optionally verify the disk after writing, which will extend the process time.

    • Automatic Media Creation: Setting a blank disk triggers automatic media creation.

    Configure restore settings as needed, including options to automatically start the restore process after a set time, enlarge volume sizes, and rearrange the order of disks for restoration.

  4. Start the Creation: Click [Start] to begin. If the optical media lacks sufficient capacity for all data, it will be split across multiple disks of the same format and capacity.

    Please follow these steps to successfully create a Restore Optical Disk, ensuring all prerequisites and settings are properly configured for an efficient restoration process.
