Any standard Win7 install CD can be used as a GUI restore environment. Please check the document I linked earlier in the thread. I really...
MerleOne, yes, and create a new .HSH file while you are at it - so you can make diffs on the merged, new full drive... Wendi, yes, DS141 VSS...
This can not be done in a standard environment on basic disks. There is only 4 partitions possible. Those 30 must be done using some kind of...
Impressive, but the little Drive Snapshot/Win7 bootCD combo can do a lot of those as well :) Comments are inline your quote.
That's because your WinPE lacked the mass storage driver needed to access your drive. My document show how easy it is to load a driver into the...
Agreed. :) This would be a bit harder on a WinPE environment. The only loss in time could be from your DOS limitations. Restores will...
VSS is the "shadow copy" service in windows. Drive Snapshot can use this instead of its own engine to make snapshots. The new version will...
Why are you guys sticking to DOS restore? As an exercise?
I didn't include the advanced restores to VHD and VMDK but I guess that's less important :) Also Active Directory restores are not included.
Please find the translated version here: Drive Snapshot restore with Win7 Install DVD/USB stick Any comments welcome :)
I saw over 20 downloads of the dutch restore document. If anyone is truly interested I'll translate it.
Well, actually, that filename is valid. Actually, you have used NTFS streams this way, unknowingly. File hidden behind files: read all about it...
Since drive snapshot has new builds all the time, it's not that hard to do an extensive trial. Also, hard work is being done on version 1.41 -...
Guys, Drive Snapshot restores are actually pretty simple using any off the shelf (32bit!) Windows 7 Install CD. I have the procedures written...
And here is how you can detect if you're already in USN rollback. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/885875/ Maybe it works now, but possibly...
That's the funny part of USN rollback. Before SP1, both servers think all is well and you won't even get a notice that things gone bad... and...
Did you test this? Think not... AD is more than users & computers - any change will get you into trouble - don't think you'll get away with it...
I had this on a test machine also. Everything boots fine, no hang (as you see the startup of multiple programs) however, keyboard and mouse are...
I'd rather have my backup tools *not* touch anything at restore time. If you don't like this solution, I suggest you use NTBACKUP or another AD...
You could use sysinternals junction to point a map (defined in your TI backup jobs) to another map. A batch file can change the junction so...
Another method is using different maps for your backups, and using sysinternals "junction" - point another map towards one of these maps....
Depends. Your present OS mass storage drivers *might* be able to boot windows, but they won't even get loaded by the system if they are not in...
You can always boot with F8 and select safe mode - your bluescreening video driver won't even start. The "chipset drivers" that cause the booting...
Right, thanks!
