You can specify the computer's response if the Norton Ghost Agent fails to start.
To set up recovery actions when the Norton Ghost Agent does not start
In the Services window, on the Action menu, click Properties.
On the Recovery tab, in the First failure, Second failure, and Subsequent failures lists, select the action that you want:
In the Reset fail count after box, specify the number of days that the Norton Ghost Agent must run successfully before the fail count is reset to zero.
When the fail count is reset to zero, the next failure triggers the action set for the first recovery attempt.
