Hi,

I have a general question. At the moment I am in Group Policy Management
console in windows 2003.

I noticed that their is a way to back up the GPO's.

Now as part of our regular back schedule we only backup system state of the
domain controller.

1) Does that backup cover GPO's?

2) In what instances would one use the backup option that is available in
Group Policy Management console

thanks

Hello Vishal,

System state backup includes the sysvol folder which stores the GPO's.

Best regards
