Altiris is not too hot at servers with remapped drives, they promise they
will sort it out at the next release.  Ghost is the best option using the
following syntax
 
A:\ghost.exe -fdsp -clone,mode=load,src=G:\[path & filename],dst=1

Tony,
 
are you able to image servers with remapped drives?

We use Altiris almost exclusively in all our implementations with a
combination of either scripted builds or Altiris imaging.

The only problem I've ever had with Ghost is using it on a partition basis.
I've better 100% success generating images by drive rather than by
partition.

 

You're mileage may vary...

No problems to date.

I don't bother backing up any of our MF servers as yet, don't see the point.

I want to create an image for them though so I can rebuild them quicker.

What products are people using for this ???

Thanks,

Steve
