If your worried about metaframe.. Skip the backup/restore process... There
shouldn't be any data stored on a MF server... Use Ghost (or some other
imaging software) to create a DR image.

I know this has been hashed around, but what do you guys use for
backup/restore on your servers?
Not just Term Servers, but everything, too. NT Backup is not much of
a solution for a large network.
We just went through several weeks of disaster recovery testing and
got at best 40% susccess
rate restoring to unlike hardware, no matter what we did. Win 2000
was a bit better then NT 4.0 based
systems, but still miserable. The files and directories come back,
but the registry entries are sketchy
at best, usually non-existenet for installed software. Even
Metaframe had to be reinstalled. We currently
use Legato, and after a conference call with Gartner, they say
everyone is in the same boat with
Mocrosoft. Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.
