I would normally have no problem doing that although them being hard headed about having a portion of their images not available for a few weeks is impacting patient care, because they can't scan new cases, which really gets to me, so I am trying to find any other possible short term solution available to bridge the gap until the longterm solution is in place. That is why i came in asking about if doing a full backup and restore. I have been down a ton of roads so just throwing things at the wall.

The key piece in all this is that since this is technically their IT departments territory, I can't do much more than suggest things (which IT agrees with) while this doctor wants to fold his arms and say no unless it is exactly the way he wants it done. He see's it as our problem and knows that this issue is causing a lot of higher ups in my company to be looking at me since there are impending sales that will not move forward until he is happy with the finished project.

If nothing else coming on here has let me vent.
