Some of the server quite fit to the dvd since some of them are not more than 
20GB. I just need to clone and then recover it.

what kind of cloning do you need?  do you want to *boot* from 
the DVD or CD?  or is it sufficient to just backup the drive
and you'll extract later?

what OS?

not that i know what the solutions are for you (i've seen
mondo backup, and there are ghost-alikes for linux), but
i've not used them since none of my drives are small enough
to fit on a DVD and I don't enjoy making ten or twenty DVDs
to backup one HD.  I just backup to an external USB drive
via rdiff-backup.

   I wish that I had control over which version was being used, but my
    sysadmin powers are inversely proportional to the computing power
    made available to me.
