If you lack the money, have the time, talent, and DASD ... go ahead. Do the CBPDO. If you're short-handed, lack resources, over worked, and over allocated, tell them to come up with the bucks and do the ServPac.

SERVPAC are a real PITA. I had some run ins with level 2 and were gotten around with my interpretations and knowledge rather than follow their instructions. Plus I found SEVPAC needed to be baby sitted (sp?) after the instaall. CBPDO in my opinion is the ONLY way to go.
