ghost 11.0.1 )(&*$(*^)(*#!!!

i tried to ghost our server using ghost 11.0.1. our server was setup the foll0wing way

all dynamic disk, 4 x 250gb

C: mirrored on disk 0 and 1 approx 40gb
E: mirrored on disk 0 and 1 (admin tools and server images <---- at least that's what i had hoped for.)

drives F,G,H all mirrored as well (data)

i created a ghost boot disk using pc dos and support for usb and scsi.
booted ghost and tried to copy partition to image of the C:/ (dynamic disk and mirrored)
i want to save the image on another volume named E:/Server Images (dynamic disk and mirrored), but it will not let me choose any of the drives. they are all grayed out.
I was able to do this yesterday when the destination drive was a basic disk, i dont' see why i'm not able to save this onto a dynamic disk. I wanted to keep the image on a mirrored volume for redundancy.

meh

the os is win2k3 standard if this is relevant.

If I can't do this i'm just gonna stick with tape backups using backup exec i made yesterday since this was driving me nuts. I just don't want to break my mirrors to be able to save an image of the OS if i've got tape backups of the full system state done already.


 
I've never used Ghost with dynamic disks and I'd guess that most other people haven't either. Have you tried calling Symantec support?
 
Why don't you get the Disk to Disk backup option for Backup Exec?

You save the backup sets to disk and then backup the sets to tape.

I'll try this. Thanks!

I haven't contacted they support, i've only been on their support forums. I've put this question to them as well so i'll find out shortly.
