BMR restore from Physical Windows Server 2008 to Virtual Windows Server 2008
Hi, I'm quite new to Netbackup and have been struggling with a BMR from a physical Windows 200 server to a virtual Windows 2008 server. I have completed the pre-requisite steps such as; 1) Creating the new client config from the source system 2) Editing the new client and changing the disks/network/routes 3) Creating the SRT/dhcp server/pxe config 4) Changing the host in /etc/hosts and fluching the cache When it comes to "prepare to restore" the new restore client boots into Windows and the restore process starts and goes well until the restore disks section. This seems to work, but in the end an error message is displayed (attached) It's like BMR can't restore the boot section on the C drive or something. If I exit out of the BMR GUI, nothing seems to be restored. I don't know whether I should be able to see any files in the systems minimum booted state or not? I've tried several different things with the disks, extending them etc, but nothing has worked so far. The log file on the Master server has the following errors in; 4 DEBUG nbutils.cpp:RestoreEFIPartition() sysVolMountPoint=U: 4 DEBUG nbutils.cpp:NBUGetBackupDatePath() , bplist exitCode=0. 1 DEBUG nbutils.cpp:NBURestore() Restore command failed!

Does anyone have any ideas what I can do to fix this? Thanks in advance, MarkSolved1.8KViews0likes4Comments
