bare-metal restoration -- what should I know before I do it?
I've got a good mind just to buy new IDE drives (they're so cheap) and use the SATAs and one of the kludge things that just clamps onto the back of a naked drive and use those for backup. Make a hardware list in a text file or on paper before you start. Device Manager: Video Modem Ethernet Sound Those are the ones

Mixed Platform w/ Pathworks
To restore other files is not possible. What can I do to restore the rest of files on tape. I use Wang Dat 5100 with NCR-SCSI-Adapter.

Can VB Read Disk Sectors?
I would ensure the entire directory structure is included in the backup, even if you choose to exclude some files, as I would expect many tools to fail, if needed directories do not exist.

Exchange from SBS into Exchnage 2003

SFN issue in SBS 2003
I've learned that one has to perform a clean installation and then restore the data - it is not possible to do the in situ upgrade. Our server acts as domain controller wih AD, DNS, DHCP. We have a second Win2K3 server, which acts as a backup AD and provides file/print management services. I'd appreciate advice on

Newbie needs Help. Restoring Files from backup disks
I think afio should be robust against strange filenames because all characters beside / and \0 are allowed in filenames especially when it is used as backup backend. The is no reason to use -0 only for building the archive and not for restoring the files. regards, Christian Schrader

using bullets causes word to crash
This holds for any backup operation that's file structured, whether there's an interlock on the file or not. When you restore files and extra space is "restored", DAT isn't extended until system shutdown (a design flaw, IMHO), and since we never do standalones, it was not possible to recover the data.

Vista crashes,how to backup in safemode?
Make C: as trim as possible so your ghost images are limited to your install base and OS. Most data files do not need to be imaged but rather backed up to another file ....
