Hello,
I used to do one of the following depending on whether is Windows 2003
or 2008+ to have some additional protection:
ClientRunBeforeJob = "start /w ntbackup backup systemstate /F
C:\\SystemState.bkf"
ClientRunAfterJob = "del C:\\SystemState.bkf"
ClientRunBeforeJob = "start /w wbadmin start systemstatebackup
-backuptarget:D: -quiet"
ClientRunAfterJob = "rmdir /s /q D:\\WindowsImageBackup"
But if you run with VSS enabled you're able to back up also registry
and open files, so unless you have a strict requirement to restore
only a part of the "System State" I suggest you to use only VSS.
I made many restore of complete Windows systems with BartPE and the
bacula plugin. The only thing you will see is "shutdown unexpected"
when you reboot the restored system.
>>From my experiences, Active Directory domain controllers are a LOT
easier and faster to be replicated from another instance than to be
restored from scratch.
Regards,
--Simone
