GhostCasting lets multiple computers running Symantec Ghost receive the same information over a computer network simultaneously. The GhostCast Server works with Ghost.exe to create an image file of a model computer or restore an image file onto a number of client computers.
Symantec Ghost supports VMWare Disk images (.vmdk files) for both creating and restoring images. Symantec Ghost supports Backup Exec System Recovery (.v2i, .iv2i) and DeployCenter Library (.pqi) images for restoring a computer only.
GhostCasting makes workstation migration and rollouts more efficient and may eliminate replicated network traffic. You can use it through the Windows interface, command-line switches, batch files, or a combination of all methods.
