Hi, i have a problem for restore a physical server with vm conversion.
in my case my appliance is a master/media
i have copied the vmtools iso into the /tmp to the appliance
The gui ask me to choose the vmtools vmware
when i brows my appliance, i can choose the iso, but when i run the pre-check, i was failed.
i think, it's not the good method, but i don't find any docuements about vm conversion with appliance.
Have you got any idea ?
Thank's for your help

I had an external drive that was connected to the server.
I have excluded the disk from the BMR
The restore is ok

You need to put that iso on a windows server that acts as the VIC.

ok, now i passe the run check successfully with the Iso on a Windows
but when i launch the convert, i have a pop up with ; no full backup available.
i have a full backup for this server with bmr option activate
have you got an idea ?

Yes,
Which versions are you running? I would suggest 7.6.0.3 before even trying to do this. Many bugs related to BMR P2V fixed in 7.6.0.3

7.6.0.3 :(
it's a bad news !

are you doing a restore from the current or making a copy? Try with current. Also, are you 100% you have a status 0 backup for the client as the last backup?
11-05-2014 09:50 AM
i have 100% status 0
i have tried with the current configuration and a copy.
i have the same result : :(
11-05-2014 07:57 PM
I would suggest a support case then.
11-05-2014 08:53 PM
I opened a case in addition to the forum
I would put online solution

Hi
Check in your NBU catalog if the Full "BMR" backup image for this server still there , it seems the backup is already expired?

all jobs in activity was with status 0, but the conversion conversion task return the status1

no, in the part of collect client
you have the collect hardware, os, disk management information, and you can copy for a new configuration, and restrict an element in disk.
in my case, a external hard drive
