Crikey ... how are you managing the Blades ? 
RDP is a great way to deploy operating systems and apps to your Blades along 
with managing them.

BTW version 2.2 is out and available from the HP RDP website.

Your enclosure licenses will be valid

  We haven't tried RDP yet, we were trying to use Sysprep when we encountered 
the problem.  We'll just try RDP then, it sounds like it should work...

  Does anyone know of a way to make sysprep work?  Just curious?

  Thanks!

  What issues are you having with RDP and remapped drives ?

  RDP has supported cloning with remapped drives since an Altiris DS patch for 
1.5 was released last year.

    Hello, we are running 8 MF XP FR3 servers with sp4.  The Operating System 
is Windows 2003 server sp1.  These are HP blade servers that currently boot 
from our SAN.  We are trying to develop an effective cloning strategy but have 
run into the issue from having remapped drive letters (U: and V:).  I know that 
this has been discussed on this list in the past and I thought there was some 
type of solution that works now, but I cannot remember for sure what is was.   
What are people doing to get around this issue?  We have licensing for HP's RDP 
(rapid deployment pack), but if you know of other solutions that work, please 
let me know as well.  

    Thanks in advance for your replies!
