BACKING UP CRITICAL SERVER 2000 FILES

[JUDGE27]

Hello all!

I am in the process of an application upgrade on one of our
many application Servers.

I would like suggestions on the types of file bakups i could
perform on the server for a quick recovery for the system critical files.

In NT4 i would only backup " \System32 ",
" \System32\Config " and the application directory.

Advanced Server 2000 is a whole new ball game.

Thanks in Advance.

In the absence of other backup programs I would use NTbackup (that come with W2K). You can use that to create an Emergency Repair Disk and then backup, at least, the System State data (ie registry, boot files, COM+ stuff...etc). If you have the time, disk/tape space you could always then do a full backup.
