Luckily, Linux does not have anything like a system state.
AIX has command called <mksysb> its operating system.
According my experience, NetBackup (5.1MP1 - MP5) is NOT able to backup the system state of a simple Windows 2003 system. No matter what SYMANTEC promises,it DOES NOT WORK ! Even if a backup job of the Shadow Copy Components returns a status 0, it does not mean that the system state has been back uped COMPLETELY.
