Have to agree with Chris C....use the right tool for the job, and as John pointed out it's not put forth as a workstation backup implementation. Great for an occasional one-off capture when needed, but if you're thinking of using it in an environment the size you've implied your is, you're setting yourself up for a management nightmare.

Thank you, 2014-03-13 15:03 GMT-03:00 Marcum, John <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>: Not true. You can own CM and not DPM. As far as the blog goes.... I don't think it's intended to be a nightly backup. Instead it's to save a copy of a disk before OSD. Don't try to restore that .wim to a machine and boot it, it's not gonna work.
