PartInfo reports "WARNING: Partition above extends beyond the end of disk.". How to fix?
I used SSR2013 to move a disk image of SBS2003 to new hardware. However, I made a mistake creating the raid partition. The virtual drive is 3.6 TB, too big for Windows Server. However, I set the size...

OK, I have fixed the problem. SRD boot disk will indeed backup the server image even if the partition size is too big. I then sucessfully recovered it to a <2TB virtual drive. Partinfo.exe and backups in general are all now very happy. Thank you for your assistance.
Because I restored to new hardware, I could then try gparted on the original server. I could change the size of the disk by reducing it 1 gb. It didn't wipe the disk, but this did not fix the problems. I'm not sure that repeating this a few times would have done any good.
Anyways, I have used SSR in dire emegencies or hardware upgrades and it does work for me.
