WIN $ 50 - CHALLENGE TO TECHIES

Post by sunandoghosh »

WIN $ 50 - CHALLENGE TO TECHIES Respected computer techies and dear friends, I am confronted with a baffling problem and it appears that only a computer guru can solve it with his knowledge, expereience and skills. Here goes the problem: I have one SATA seagate HDD 160 GB having three partitions C; D and E. Basically this HDD has ONLY SAP installed on it...an ERP package which uses Oracle database. Out of 160 GB HDD space; only 60 GB is being used by SAP program. I WANT TO CREATE DRIVE IMAGE OR AN EXACT COPY OF THE ABOVE IN ANOTHER HARD DISK of 80 GB. I know that I can crearte drive image with 160 GB of another HDD. BUT my q is that is there any way in which i can create an exact copy of SAP system which has occupied 60 GB out of 160 GB ON ANOTHER HDD of 80 GB....????????????????????????????? I know this is a very complicated question but then i would love to hear the opinion of the techies; geeks and nerds... ALSO the person whose solution will be finally accepted will be rewarded with a $ 25 transfer from my paypal account to his account. This is just a token of appreciation and respect for his skills and knowledge. In case someone comes with an exceptionally brilliant idea the reward will be enhanced to $ 50. Awaiting gurus to come forward and test their brains and help me resolve my problem as well. Regards sunando sunandoghosh at rediffmail dot com
