Hi Eric, What you need to do then is to restore all data offline. What I'm suggest then is to use our software TBMR then do you got everything already build. If you are going to similar hardware you can always use ASR in Windows Server 2003. Best Regards Christian Svensson WW Support: +44-1453-

Hi Howard! This is not an option, because then you would end-up with two Windows boxes with the same machine name on the network and, as far as I know, that's not allowed within a domain. And shutting down or renaming the original server is not an option too since it's running a production applicat

Hi Christian! In fact, the user wants to duplicate a production server (SERVER-A), so he wants SERVER-B to be an exact copy of SERVER-A after the restore. So, we would like to restore the file level data and all other objects (like the registry etc.) too. Kindest regards, Eric van Loon KLM Royal

You can't restore systemstate to another node, from my understanding. The best way to do this (if you can) is to rename the node you want to do the restore on to match that of the original box. Then you can restore everything, and when you're done you can rename it back. Just make sure not to do

Hi *SM-ers! One of my customers is trying to restore a complete node (lets say NODE-A) to a new node (lets say NODE-B) .

Your original email included "Win2003 clients". If you are now discounting their participation and focusing on only the AIX client sessions, then it's possible that they are using ACLs (particularly for GPFS), where DIRMc considerations could be a factor. In any case, why leave this a mystery when
