Hey one and all,

Quick question re bexec and total server recovery

If i was to complete full backup of svr 2003 with sys state (not ad) and shadow copy,  i'm assuming if we experienced total server failure we could get another bare bones svr 2003 box and complete full restore with all applications and it would for all intents and purproses be the same server ?

Hi,

Yes. But then make sure you are selecting everything on that particular server to back up.
You would firstly configure your new server with the same sort of partitions etc. as the old server. Once done, restore your data and programs etc, and then the System State.

Laters!
