There is really no system restore with 2003, windows server 2003 mainly relies on backups (ntbackup) and uses system state (just like system restore). &nbsp;Mainly just configure your backups to run on schedule and what is all needed and run them everyday of the week. &nbsp;It is best to be redundant in case backups fail. &nbsp;But for the server environment use backups and have plenty of them.
