That doesn't work for teh Trial Edition.  Ther is no option to to Create a New Recovery Disk.  The only option I have is to Creat a Custom Recovery Disk.  i have th Trial Edition of SSR 2013 Not SSR 2013 R2

Things changed with R2 - you now have to create your own recovery disk (because of the license changes enforced by Microsoft).

The question is; why are you doing a trial of 2013 when 2013 R2 has been available for quite some time now??

Link to R2 trial: https://www4.symantec.com/Vrt/offer?a_id=88724

That may be my Problem.  I just used the trial version I foound on our Server.  i will download teh Newer version and see if that resolves the issue.

 

Thanks

It only needs a serial number (license) in order to do a cold backup (cold backup is a backup via the recovery disk). You do not need a license to do a restore.
