Cloning Gates Servers w/ Ghost 2002
7:37 PM EDT 7/29/04
This post was moved from here and started as a new topic by an administrator.

Thanks for all the help- I got sidetracked with other issues and days off. My director did not approve of buying a new h.d. from the vendors we were established with due to the cost and the age of the Gates server. Now I have a different scenario- a 2 year old Dell Pentium III 866 low end server with half a gig of ram and an 18 gig ide hard drive is now available due to our discontinuing of the product and license we originally purchased it for. Can anyone walk me thru the steps of cloning a Gates server with 2 SCSI drives onto a server with one 18 gig ide drive? I have Ghost 2002. I need to know how to set up the boot floppy for each machine. Thanks.

Dale could probably answer this better than I, but I am not sure you can just clone from one to the other. Besides the obvious hard drive space issue, you are probably looking at completely different drivers as your video and motherboard chipset are probably very different. Then again, you can't lose much if it doesn't work!

I haven't tried what you are wanting to do, so can't help much with the boot disk issue.

Any ideas out there?

I finally got a scsi hard drive and cloned another Gates server and got everything working.
Thanks to everyone who helped me.
