pk2_kdh Posts: 54 Rating: (3)	Dear all I need to take the complete system backup for the Server withStep7 Professional v5.5, WinCC v7.0 + sp2 and operating system " Windows Server Standard " SP2.configuration. Now Windows normal Microsoft backup tool is sufficient enough to take the complete system Image back up but is it safe enough for all the network configurations and Licences already there in the running server....? That is when I'll restore the Image back up in a new same configuration server would it come up with all its network settings and installed licences intact.....? I am still failing to decide whether to use the Normal Microsoft Windows back up tool or the third party Software "Acronis true image "for the purpose....//
