VSR16 Restore anywhere can't install raid driver

89416931
Level 3

i backup the OS  of  server dell r730 using VSR16, and creat the VSRD iso. 

i boot the new server, dell r540, with the VSRD iso.  then i load the raid driver, and find the storage device, so i recovery the OS backup to the new server. 

but,     when the recovery progress is to 99%, it prompts me to provide the driver of storage device, i select the driver file "*.inf",and click ok. unfortunately, it tells me "no matching driver for perc h740p  found". 

i need "how to do" and "what to do"

The driver that you need to provide should be compatible with the operating system that you are restoring. What version of Windows are you restoring?

Can you also provide a link to the driver that you are trying to use for the PERC h740p controller.

the operating system i restored is Windows Server 2012R2 , and the raid driver i used was download from dell. this is the link :http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/product-support/servicetag/h872cp2/drivers

When I downloaded the raid driver, I had selected the OS version Windows Server 2012R2.

Yes, I have used this one driver ,and it can't work . Meanwhile, I have used another version driver from Chinese website, Version: 7.703.06.00 ,A01, and it can't work too . I am from China.

We will probably need to collect logs from the recovery environment after reproducing this problem in order to understand what is going on here. A support case may be needed.

However, since you are using VSR 16, it may be worth trying this:

  • Upgrade to VSR 18 (or install VSR 18 on a separate machine)
  • Create a new recovery disk using VSR 18
  • Try restore using new recovery disk

I have consulted the supplier, there is no VSR 18 for sale in China, I can't get it and upgrade. How to collect logs from the recovery environment after reproducing this problem.

I was not aware that VSR 18 was not being sold in China. I wonder if it's just that partner/reseller?

You can find other suppliers here: https://partnernet.veritas.com/portal/faces/PartnerLocator

You can also download a trial version of VSR 18 here: https://www.veritas.com/product/backup-and-recovery/system-recovery

Thank you for your reply. I'll download the trail version of VSR 18, and try to restore the server again.

I have used VSR 18 to restore the server, but fail too. I think i must Contact technical support. Maybe they can deal with this problem. Hopefully that will work out

Yes, probably a good idea to open a support case for this.
