Why Choose Cristie CBMR for Standalone System Recovery?

CBMR combines the information required to reconstruct a machine with the backup data needed to restore it, providing a defined route from system loss to a working operating environment.

  • Protect the Complete System

    Protect the operating system, applications, configuration and selected data required to bring a machine back into service.

  • Recover Beyond the Original Machine

    Restore systems when the original server is no longer available, with recovery capabilities designed to accommodate replacement infrastructure.

  • Adapt the Target During Recovery

    Adjust storage, hardware and network configuration where supported so that the recovered system can operate in its new environment.

  • Choose Where Your Recovery Data Lives

    Use CBMR's own backup capabilities with supported storage destinations rather than making system recovery dependent on a separate enterprise backup product.

  • Make Recovery Repeatable

    Capture the configuration required for recovery and use a defined recovery environment and workflow instead of manually reconstructing the failed machine.

CBMR brings backup, machine configuration and system recovery together in one Cristie solution.

Use CBMR as a standalone backup and system recovery solution, or connect it to Cristie Recovery Hub when you need centralised recovery management, automation and orchestration across a larger environment.

From Protected Machine to Working System

CBMR protects more than files. It preserves the information needed to reconstruct the systems that those files belong to.

Before disaster strikes, CBMR records system configuration and creates the DR backup required for recovery. This provides the recovery process with information about the machine’s storage, operating environment and network configuration alongside the protected system data.

If recovery is required, the target is started in a Cristie recovery environment. CBMR can then reconstruct the required disk structure, restore the operating system and bring the recovered machine towards a bootable state.

The result is a standalone recovery process designed around rebuilding the complete machine rather than restoring its files in isolation.

What CBMR Adds to Your Recovery Strategy

  • Reduce the Work Between Failure and Recovery

    Replace a manual server rebuild with a defined recovery process that restores the system structure, operating environment and protected data needed to return the machine to service.

  • Recover When the Original Server Is Gone

    Give recovery teams options beyond rebuilding identical hardware, helping them use suitable physical, virtual or other replacement resources when supported.

  • Keep System Recovery Self-Contained

    Protect systems directly with Cristie rather than requiring a separate third-party enterprise backup platform as the foundation for complete system recovery.

  • Scale Recovery When Requirements Grow

    Start with CBMR for individual system protection and recovery, then introduce Recovery Hub when teams need centralised control, automation, recovery testing and multi-system orchestration.

Cristie CBMR Standalone System Recovery – Frequently Asked Questions

Cristie Bare Machine Recovery (CBMR) is a standalone backup and system recovery solution designed to protect and recover complete machines. It combines DR backup data with system configuration information so the operating environment can be reconstructed following system loss.

CBMR is available for Windows, Linux, AIX and Solaris. Exact operating system versions, architectures and other compatibility requirements vary by platform, so current deployments should always be checked against the Cristie Product Support Matrix.

No. CBMR has its own backup capabilities and can operate as a standalone solution. Supported backup destinations vary by platform. Some editions can also work with IBM Storage Protect where organisations want to use it as part of the recovery workflow. Linux, for example, supports file, tape and IBM Storage Protect backup locations.

Yes, CBMR is designed to support recovery where the target environment differs from the original system, subject to the capabilities and requirements of the operating system being recovered. The Linux documentation explicitly supports recovery to the same or dissimilar hardware.

CBMR records configuration information required to reconstruct the protected machine. Depending on platform, this includes information such as disks, storage structure and network configuration. This configuration is used alongside the DR backup during recovery.

CBMR provides platform-specific options for adapting the recovered system to its target environment, including disk/storage and network configuration. The exact options differ between Windows, Linux, AIX and Solaris, so they should be presented as platform-specific capabilities rather than identical functionality across every operating system.

No. CBMR can operate as a standalone system backup and recovery solution. Cristie Recovery Hub can be added where organisations require centralised management, recovery automation, orchestration and recovery assurance across multiple systems.

Build Complete System Recovery into Your Protection Strategy

Protect Windows, Linux, AIX and Solaris systems with Cristie CBMR and give your recovery team a defined path from system loss to a working machine.

What Is Cleanroom Recovery? Why It’s Essential After Ransomware

April 7, 2026 No Comments

Cleanroom recovery is becoming essential in the fight against ransomware. By restoring systems in an isolated environment, organizations can validate integrity, eliminate hidden threats, and prevent reinfection. This approach ensures secure, reliable recovery of infrastructure, helping businesses minimise downtime and strengthen cyber resilience after sophisticated cyberattacks.

The Enterprise Guide to Cyber Recovery and Infrastructure Resilience

April 2, 2026 No Comments

Modern ransomware targets entire infrastructures, not just data. Traditional backups often fail because they don’t restore operating systems or configurations. This guide explores building a cyber-resilient strategy using automated system recovery and cleanroom environments to bridge the gap between backup and full operational restoration, ensuring rapid recovery after a sophisticated attack.
