Hi<br />
<br />
Just a quick one, I admin three servers for one of my customers, all three servers are running Server 2003, one is a domain Controller, one a mail server, running exchange 2003, and the other is a backup domain controller, In the next week or so I am going to install a new mail server, running Server 2003 and exchange 2007, the two mail servers are going to run together with half the mailboxes on each. But before I start running Domain Prep, and Forest Prep, and playing around with active directory, I would like to image all three servers just in case anything goes wrong... &nbsp;can anyone recommend good imaging software so I could recover in hours if it goes wrong...<br />
<br />
Regards<br />
<br />

Imaging Software

Photo and imaging software is used to edit and compose raster images; Adobe Photoshop, which dominates the market, has its own topic. Common actions include cropping, slicing, retouching, color replacement, masking and erasing. Other programs include Apple Photo, Corel PaintShop Pro, GIMP, Serif PhotoPlus, Pixlr, PhotoScape, Picasa and IrfanView.

Images and Photos

Servers are computing devices that are similar to desktop computers in that they have the same basic components, but are significantly different in size, configuration and purpose. Servers are usually accessed over a network, and many run unattended, without a computer monitor, input device, audio hardware or USB interfaces. Many servers do not have a graphical user interface (GUI), and are configured and managed remotely. Servers typically include hardware redundancy such as dual power supplies, RAID disk systems, and ECC memory, along with extensive pre-boot memory testing and verification. Critical components might be hot swappable, and to guard against overheating, servers might have more powerful fans or use water cooling.
