Yes,  Symantec takes a cop-out on their website, but it works fine.

Ghost works with RAID protected disks?

That is why ghost is so great.   Or you could snapshot the applications and
use a package manager to deploy them.


Rebuilding will also give you the chance to script the
installs/configurations.

I know where you are coming from.  I'd rather not though, based on the
amount of time it will take to reinstall/reconfigure many applications
installed on the server. Then I would have to repeat the process 2 more
times for the remaining servers.

Unless I had a gun to my head, I'd always do a rebuild for an OS upgrade.
Especially for a terminal server.

 Anyone attempted to do this yet?  I am currently running Win 2K SP3/MFXP
 1.0/FR3SP3. Looking for tips and tricks (other than format disk and
 install Win 2K3 from scratch).
