Hi all! Please help me! I have Symantec Netbackup 7.0.1 with Master Server on RHEL5.5 and Boot server on Windows 2003 x86 Ent . I'm try restore throw Bare Metal Restore Hyper-v 2012 virtual machine use Dissimilar System Restore. I'm create SRT on boot server, after this i add Symantec Netbackup Client and Update the this package. Next, I'm integrate Hype-v drivers (all exclude wsorflt.inf) and create iso image this tree. After boot hyper-v virtual machine, i'm run Automating Discovery. VM configurations is display in console in Discovered Configurations. Next I'm copy and prepare configurations for restore. After next reboot target virtual machine, i'm try restore prepared configurations, in process restore BRM restore write error 'Failed to create partition'. My questions 1) Where I'm find logs for this restore process? 2) What i'm do for resolve this error?

Check netbackup/logs/bmrrst/*.log genereated on your nb master server. This would give some hint.

thanks.

I believe you have missed config discovery and initialization required for BMR dissimilar system recovery.

Hope below BMR videos would help you which describes Windows DSR of physical machine onto VMWare based virtual machine.

I'm tried restore VM how in this manual (but use ISO media).

I'm get this error again.

Problem in set drivers?

Take a look at this thread where I mentioned about a tech-note steps to be followed for Hyper-V recovery. Check if that solves your isssue.

MS site says

 0x80042554 - VDS_E_ALIGN_NOT_SECTOR_SIZE_MULTIPLE.

Problem in virtual disk driver.

I'm find workaround.

Symantec Netbackup 7.0 not working with VHDX virtual disk (maybe this problem winpe 1.1?when how i'm rebuild Symantec Boot Media on WinPE 2.0?).

Please fix this.
