Ok that is very insightful and helps alot only problem being its running on VMware ESXi does that make any difference? I have figured out how to backup the necessary files using the FOG secure shell access, one problem being I don’t know how to move it to say an external hard drive.

I need a tutorial on how to backup my FOG Server. I have looked around online and have to come to the conclusion that I will have to use the fog server access shell. I did not set this up I was only given the task of backing it up can someone please help me
