Hello,
I have a customer with a Windows 2003 server with Active Directory with Backup Recovery Server 6.5 and next saturday, I 'm going to restore it in a new server. In fact, VSS must be enabled but I just want the step how to back up the server and restore it to a new server (different hardware). I've enbled VSS on Volume C,
restore anyware is enable also. Is that all before backup or is there anything else to do?
Thanks for help

Be sure to review the section starting on page 93 of Symantec Backup Exec™ System Recovery Implementation Guide for 6.5.
Secondly, review the technote:

and if you run into an issue, prior to allowing the retargeting system reboot, follow the steps outline in the following document to have logs to assist you in your troubleshooting:
