[WEB4LIB] Ghost & Deep Freeze

[Arthur Christy]

Since we are on the subject of ghosting with other products.  I will add my
2 cents!  I don't use deepfreeze, which is similiar to Clean Slate.  I do
use Ghost with Clean Slate and Fortres, and have not had a problem with it
at all.

Where I do have a problem is using Ghost and Microsoft SMS.  This creates
Duplicates GUID.  Major problem of bogging the server down.

We use ghost with deepfreeze and you certainly can ghost an image with
deepfreeze.  You only have to thaw the drive first the you can do your
ghosting.  With ghost 7.0 or 7.5 it is very easy to do so remotely.  My
image contains deepfreeze and it is imaged with deepfreeze thawed.  When
my image is loaded then I remotely freeze the drive.

What DeepFreeze says about it is that you cannot Ghost a drive once
DeepFreeze has been installed. The way we get around this is to simply
create our Ghost images without DeepFreeze, then if we need to restore a
machine with the image we do so and then install and active DeepFreeze.
