disk. You may have to modify to the network driver files, but once done, boot to
CD to load network drivers, map a drive to a network share that has the Ghost
executable, run ghost and save the image to your network share. Then use the
BARS utility to perform nightly backups. How often you image the server is up to
you, but quarterly if possible. I agree it is much easier to utilize the 7835
with Raid level one, all you have to do is rotate drives
periodically.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>how are you doing ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>my advice is to use a 7835 /dl380 where you
can but it is not always possible. BARS can be used to back up call manager
configuration but not the OS and CCM application.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>With a DL380 - once you have a stable
config you can pull one disk in the raid and place it in the safe - when a
disaster hits the box you can always pull the running disk after shutting the
server - replace with the disk from the safe and boot from it and have a full
working config. If you have frequent changes this will mean you loose some of
your changes after the last RAID when you pulled the second disk.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial size=2>7825 / dl320 -- BARS - good documented
solution -- and maybe some ghosting software - I am not a server person so I
don't really know what can be done</FONT></DIV>
