Console requirements

The Double-Take RecoverNow console is used to manage your Double-Take RecoverNow servers.

Operating system—The Double-Take RecoverNow console can be run from a physical or virtual machine running Windows XP/2003/Vista/2008/7. You can run the console from the source server or repository server. However, if you run the console from the original source server, then you will not see that the recovery process is complete because the source server is shutdown after recovery by default.
Microsoft .NET Framework—Microsoft .NET Framework version 3.5 Service Pack 1 is required on the console. This version is not included in the .NET version 4.0 release. Therefore, even if you have .NET version 4.0 installed, you will also need version 3.5.1. You can install this version from the Double-Take RecoverNow CD, via a web connection during the Double-Take RecoverNow installation, or from a copy you have obtained manually from the Microsoft web site.
