make full images for recovery from disk failures
How careful do I have to be about file system activity? I run TI
overnight dowing disk-to-disk backup to a USB1 ext disk.
I can imagine that my Anti-virus vendor could ship me an update while
TI is running. It would install and make many MB of file system
changes in the process.
It the Right Thing to boot XP as a single user or boot off teh TI CD
for a full image backup?
(I've done countless "single user" disk backup on Unix systems and
made countless file system backups of running systems with NTBackup
and done my share of bare-iron recoveries in both environments.)
Thanks,
If I'm right, Trueimage allows you to make a boot disk, it might allow you to image from it, but my thoughts were that it was a recovery disk. I use it for that one day. Never saw a clone / backup option, but then again I was not looking.
