Works great and has saved us many hours of work doing restores onto new hardware.

798662 2009-08-06 02:38:00 Imaging for servers?....tut tut!, these are physical boxes?...is this a DR plan?....If DR is the issue, there are plenty of virtualisation platform available, ESXi for 1 and use an everyday backup suite for 'Data' backup....
I would never consider using imaging software for servers.....

Agreed - a combination of ESXi and vRanger Pro for more granular control, and Veritas Backup Exec agents on each box too.

Not the cheapest option, but will give you MUCH better MTTR if everything goes t1ts up!
