[cisco-voip] CallManager Backup using Windows 2000 Backup

[Carter, Bill]

Any future plans to change the backup options for Call Manager to
provide a single of couple step process instead of manual restore of OS,
CCM then CCM Backup utility restore?

		Keep 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.
