[cisco-voip] CallManager Backup using Windows 2000 Backup

[Wes Sisk]

MessageKeep in mind that if it's a cluster SQL replication and DCD
replication will be broken after a ghost restore.  ghost backup/restore is
not really supported by Cisco, but it has worked well in the field.

  One of the engineers here has tried to recover from a backup, and has been
unsuccessful to this day.  He has tried 3 times and the configuration has
never come up the same.  I've never tried it myself, and am somewhat
hesitant to try after hearing this.  I would go with the Ghost image like
Wes reccomended.

    Has anyone tried using the Windows 2000 Backup utility on Call Manager.
I am planning a Call Manager upgrade and I am looking for a faster "recover"
method if the upgrade fails.  The environment is a single CallManager
MCS-7825 with out a RAID drive to pull before the upgrade.
