Hi there,
I've bought my first really rack server now (IBM 787971G) and now i'd like your advice on how to configure the software on the server.

What i would like help on is:
1) create a small ghost partition with the core software/drivers on it - which allows me to restore from it at any point (should i need to) before windows loads.
2) The windows installation - i still haven't decided on 2008 or 2003, but i think i'll go 2008.
3)Raid setup and how to do it correctly - server has 2x73gb SAS.
4) I would like to host my webpage from this, but i don't know the best way to do this - last time i done this was over 5 years ago.



Thank you
 
Thanks guys for your inputs.
I take it that ghost is no good these days?
What software/tool would i use to make a backup DVD for with the base system - should a complete reinstall be needed?
