Hi, I have this scenario.
From my Windows 2008R2 (C:\) I made a backup with wbadmin systemstate to disk (for this example e:\), but my SO hard disk, after a couple days, now shows a failure general. I have now other hdd to restore the SO from my backup (hdd e:\), then I do the next steps:
1.Attach the HDD with the backup system into the PC, now with a new HDD for recover the SO.
2. I Put my Windows DVD and select repair option.
And here begins my problems, because the system can't find the image for recover, then I try with command line
Wbadmin get versions -backuptarget:D: (this unit es the same e:\ where my backup was maked)
And this shows the info , what can I recover, etc.
But when I run
wbadmin start sysrecover this can't be restored because the volume isn't the same. Then I try with other parameters
wbadmin start recovery -version(dateofmybkp) -itemtype:volume -items:C: -backuptarget:D: -recoverytarget:C:
After this show progress, then I try to reboot, but the SO don't boot, only appears a black screen. Later I try with the bootrec and 3 options, reboot again but the same, black screen with the cursor on the left corner.
How I can make a restore from backup to another disk(inclusive in other hardware)
It's possible?
