I know that everyone slates CA but in the past I have successfully used the disaster recovery module for Arcserve. You create 5 floppy disks and boot from those with the WinNT cd to restore from the tape in your backup server. If you are recovering your backup server, you only need 4 floppies.

Haven't used this for 3 years so don't know how well things work now or whether it works with W2k

Hi there,

I’m interested on peoples views on different disk imaging software.

I need a piece of software that will take a complete image of a servers (W2K) raid hard disk(s) and allow me to put the image back on to the disks in the event of a complete failure. Has anybody used any software that allows them to say boot from floppy and restore from tape.

Thanks
