Preface
Information presented in this guide is to support Lenovo computers installed with
the ThinkVantage
®
Rescue and Recovery
®
program.
The Rescue and Recovery program is an essential tool that enables users and
administrators to restore backups, access files, diagnose problems, and make
Ethernet connections if the Microsoft
®
Windows
®
operating system will not open
or run correctly. It also enables deployment of critical updates to systems that are
corrupted or off the network, as well as automatically applying patches to a
system when a restore operation is performed. The Rescue and Recovery program
helps reduce IT management costs by decreasing helpdesk calls and desk-side
visits, as well as improving user productivity.
The Rescue and Recovery Deployment Guide provides the information required for
installing the Rescue and Recovery program on one or more computers, and also
provides instructions and scenarios on the administrative tools that can be
customized to support IT or corporate policies.
This guide is intended for IT administrators, or those responsible for deploying the
Rescue and Recovery program to computers throughout their organizations. If you
have suggestions or comments, communicate with your Lenovo
®
authorized
representative. This guide is updated periodically, and you can check the latest
publication on the Lenovo Web site at:
For information about using various components included in the Rescue and
Recovery workspace, refer to the online help system and user guides that come
