Hi All,
One of my clients asked me add cloning to my backup strategy and am trying
the Acronyms True Image Server 7 product. I've read many posts about SBS and
Imaging and have also have Ghost 2003 as an option. I am familar with Ghost
2003 (luckily the server in question has basic disks only) and it should
work with my server. Ghost 2003 is easy but have not tried using scsi
drives, yet.

Ultimately, I am looking for the easiest product to use where if I am out of
town I can guide a power user onsite to restore the drive and then restore
from tape.

Opinions would be appreciated.

I have always loved Ghost but I would never let even a power user do a
restore...too much at risk.

Does Ghost 2003 work in producing an image of an SBS2k dynamic software
mirrored disk?  Has anyone done this type of cloning with True Image server
7.

TIA

Tony

Yes.

Ghost compatibility with dynamic partitions

I've used the partition-to-image method - requires booting to DOS, then
imaging the partitions.
