  Copy recovery points in Norton Ghost 12.0
1
Start Norton Ghost 12.0.
2
In the left pane, click Tools.
3
In the right pane, click Manage Backup Destination.
4
Select a recovery point set or an independent recovery point, and then click Copy.

If the recovery point set contains multiple points that can be copied, select the recovery point that you want to copy, and then click OK
5
In the Copy Recovery Point Wizard panel, click Next.

Click Next.

Select a level of compression for the copies of the recovery points, and then click Next.
 
Compression level Description
None Use this option if storage space is not an issue. However, if the backup is being saved to a busy network drive, high compression may be faster than no compression because there is less data to write across the network.
Standard (recommended) This option uses low compression for a 40 percent average data compression ratio on recovery points. This setting is the default.
Medium This option uses medium compression for a 45 percent average data compression ratio on recovery points.
High

This option uses high compression for a 50 percent average data compression ratio on recovery points. This setting is usually the slowest method.

When a high compression recovery point is created, CPU usage might be higher than normal. Other processes on the computer might also be slower. To compensate, you can adjust the operation speed of Norton Save and Restore. This might improve the performance of other resource-intensive applications that you are running at the same time.

If you want to verify whether a recovery point is valid once the copy is complete, check Verify recovery point after creation.

Click OK.
