If you are performing a physical-to-virtual (P2V) operation with the
PowerProtect Data Manager Bare Metal Recovery Wizard, the
Restore physical host to virtual host (P2V) option might appear. If you do not select it, BMR succeeds but the target host boots with a blue screen.
About this task
In rare circumstances, network connectivity issues can prevent the BMR wizard from detecting if a target host is virtual or physical. If no confirmation is given, certain registry entries are not modified to the values required for a virtual host.
To correct the situation, perform the following actions:
Steps
Boot the target host with the WinPE image.
From the command-line window, run
diskpart and
list volumes to identify the current drive letter for the original system drive.
Run
ddfsrc.exe -h DFA_SI_DR_PATCH_REG_PATH="C:\Windows", replacing
C: with the drive letter obtained in step 2.
Restart the host.
Next steps
The target host boots without a blue screen.
