um.. we do it in SBSland.. but we insanely don't have another DC around for it to conflict with...but yeah.. even for us SBSers....certain folks like "~" suck air and get this horrified look on their face.

Ummm. No. Do not do it. Someone is misguided. Do not image domain controllers.

Subject: [ActiveDir] Image a DC?

Am I reading this correctly - HP is stating I should create an image of a DC 
and then deploy this DC image to all new DC's ?
Or does something happen under the hood?

Double-click on Create Image and enter the path and file name to store the new disk image. 
Since this image is of a Domain Controller, the image data should be stored in a secure 
location. If the local file system does not suffice for this purpose, then select something 
other than ".\images\<filename>."
Otherwise, type in a name and location such as ".\images\adimage.img." Click 
Finish to save the task. (Figure 11).

Drag and drop this script to the server assigned as an Active Directory server 
through the deployment console. This causes the Domain Controller to be imaged. 
In order to keep a good backup of the Domain Controller, this process should be 
repeated periodically so that the image available for redeployment
(should this be necessary) is as up-to-date as 
possible..+Šw†ÛÿüÁ§Š÷Šºƒò²Ö§²ÑB§ÿö+v*®ŠË§²Örz§ÿà
