Back up image on a HP t5710

Post by Tribute3 »

Hey guys I want to make an image of all the settings and all on my Hp t5710, is this possible? If so how?

I got everything exactly the way i want, and want to keep a copy jsut in case. :) this is stable i have not touched it in weeks, and i have simulated a power outage with the power bar, i didnt touch it and in 5 min it was back up. Also stays very cool, which means not alot of power is being used. :)

Thank you.

When I ran a thin client, I followed the steps here:

Does this jsut create a ISO of the stock factory image? Or does it back-up all my settings and files on the thin client? I cant see the need for it being 180 MB to backup.
please advise.

Basically what im after is an image of my drive with all its contents, similar to the way norton ghost would work for a normal pc.

The tool that makes an image is already installed in the factory image its in control panel called "Hp thinstate capture" Very easy tool to use :)

I followed the pdf, but later found the thinstate capture tool; it has been over a year since I used the thin client; I couldn't remember the name of it. Super easy to use.

Thin State was awesome. I had three T5710's that I needed to get a clean image to. I reflashed the first one using the image from the HP website and also set up magicjack on it as well. Once I had everything working and set up the way I wanted, I used ThinState to image the other two units. And the image itself for my set up is saved to a USB key for safe keeping in case anything happens.
