Operating System: Windows Server 2012 R2

2 partitions ( C: et D:) In different datastore

Array Controller : HP Smart Array B320i RAID Controller

OK...which version of vSphere are you running and which version of BE is installed on the appliance?

Have you made sure that your appliance is fully patched with the latest BE patches?

Thanks!

Server 2012 R2 is not supported by BE 2012 which is the version of BE in the appliance.  You got to wait till BE 2014 which is due to be released in the middle of the year.
