Description-en: Bare metal disaster recovery and system migration framework
It is a modular framework with many ready-to-go workflows for common
situations. Relax-and-Recover produces a bootable image. This image can
repartition the system. Once that is done it initiates a restore from backup.
Restores to different hardware are possible. Relax-and-Recover can therefore be
used as a migration tool as well.
