Cloning and restoring on a network with Symantec System Recovery 2013

[Smoulders]

Hi everyone.

I used to use Symantec ghost to clone PC's here and then restore to more PC's to join our domain. I would then use Ghost walker to change the SID's of the new PC's so as to avoid any conflicts.

I have heard that this same process can now be done with Windows 8 machines using Symantec System Recovery 2013 but have found it impossible to find any info on how to do this een after going through the manual.

Can this be done with this software? Most references on the interent tend to be for a single clone on to a harddrive to be used as a backup rather than deploying the newly created image to several other PC's on the same network.

Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated

Cheers

Nick

You can create a 1:1 disk clone but the thing with SID Changing needs to be done with an other tool.

Ok, thanks for that.

Any suggestions for a Windows 8 compatible tool for sid changing after using SSR 2013 to clone a drive?

MAny thanks
