What Build/Version of Ghost64.exe was included with GSS 3.3 RU5 and RU7

[Ray Donovan]

I would like to know what build/version of Ghost64.exe was released in GSS 3.3 RU5 and GSS 3.3 RU7. For example, I know 3.3 RU4 contained 12.0.0.11197 and 3.3 RU6 contained 12.0.0.11131. But I can't find RU5 and RU7.

Also, is there a list of GSS Releases and their associated Build Versions available? I've tried checking the Release Notes for each release but the Build version isn't listed.

[Igor Perevozchikov]

Hi Ray Donovan!

GSS 3.3 RU5 release:

• ghost32.exe (12.0.0.11296)
• Ghost64.exe (12.0.0.11296)

GSS 3.3 RU7 release:

• ghost32.exe (12.0.0.11343)
• Ghost64.exe (12.0.0.11343)

Best regards,

Hey Igor, Thanks for the reply and for answering my question. Would you happen to know what build was included in the GSS 3.2 release? For some reason I have 12.0.0.10514 listed in my notes, but then I also have GSS 3.1 MP6 as having 12.0.0.10517. Is that a typo on my end or was an older build released in GSS 3.2 than the one in GSS 3.1 MP6?

Thanks in advance.

[Igor Perevozchikov]

Well, according to released versions of Ghost, such version 12.0.0.10514 of Ghost isn't shown. Maybe Ghost.exe 12.0.0.10514 was provided as point fix, etc?

Wow, Thanks for posting that! Would you happen to have the 3.0-3.0 HF5 releases as well? Only reason I ask is because I'm seeing some discrepancies in the list you provided compared to the list I've been compiling over the years. How accurate is the list you posted? I'm assuming it's from some internal resources so it should be pretty accurate right? I'm sure your list is probably more accurate than mine, so I just want to confirm the source before I go updating my list with your information.

In your list it shows 3.1, 3.1 MP1 and 3.1 MP2 as having 12.0.0.8023. But in mine, I've got 8023, 8027 and 8031 respectively.

3.0 (12.0.0.8006) 06/2015
3.0 HF1 (12.0.0.8006) 08/2015

Hi Roy!

All previous information is gathered from installed "Symantec_Ghost_Solution_Suite_3.   .exe" released executables and Ghost32.exe with Ghost64.exe versions were checked in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Altiris\eXpress\Deployment Server\Ghost" location only

If you have installed only Ghost standard tools via "Symantec_Ghost_Standard_Tools_3.   .msi" package, then Ghost32.exe with Ghost64.exe are in another location like "C:\Program Files (x86)\Symantec\Ghost" instead of main GSS Server Console location like "C:\Program Files (x86)\Altiris\eXpress\Deployment Server\Ghost"

I see that if there is installed "Symantec_Ghost_Solution_Suite_3.1_MP1.exe" then Ghost.exe version is '12.0.0.8023' in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Altiris\eXpress\Deployment Server\Ghost" location.

If there will be installed "Symantec_Ghost_Standard_Tools_3.1_MP1.msi" then Ghost.exe version is '12.0.0.8027' in  "C:\Program Files (x86)\Symantec\Ghost" location

Where you checked version of Ghost32.exe & Ghost64.exe?

Thanks,
IP.

Ahhh ok that makes more sense then. I typically just use the "Symantec_Ghost_Standard_Tools_3.msi" so that's probably why the versions from my list look a little different from yours.

Are you able to compile a list of versions/builds for the "Ghost Standard Tools" Ghost32.exe & Ghost64.exe? I would like to have from GSS 3.0 up thru the latest 3.3 RU8 if it's not too much trouble. If you're not able to compile a list of "Ghost Standard Tools" executable's, then could you at least provide me with a list of versions 3.0-3.0 HF5 from the list you have?

[Igor Perevozchikov]

Well, for 3.0 I don't have this information.

Anyway GSS 3.0 & 3.1 are EOL and 3.2 soon also will be EOL Ghost Solution Suite End of Life Schedules

That list is excellent! Thank You very much for taking the time to post that, I really appreciate it!

Just curious, how come some releases such as 3.1 MP1, MP2, MP3, MP5 have different binaries in the EXE than the MSI? Are they released at different times or something?

Also, is there an easy way to see what build newer releases contain? I was thinking it would have been something that was available in the "Release Notes", but I never see it listed in there. Is this information listed anywhere else?

[SCOTT READ]

Why do the newest versions not auto calculate partition size and not back up encrypted partitions when hot imaging?

Scott Read

[Ray Donovan]

Hey Scott, I'm not sure but I would suggest you start your own thread and ask. You'll get more responses that way.
