Assembling image fails

I have the same problem on Windows 2003 server. I can’t merge the VHD to create a single bootable image. I did a full image backup and tried to merge it right after and I can’t make it work.

By the way, you should use the same file names (date) for all drives and use the same date/time for a single backup.

C image and D image has different time and this is hard to know which goes with which. I have to sort them by date modified to group them together. they should all have the date/time of the job start date/time.

Your SYSVOL images have size zero. Maybe you should not select them? And maybe you should investigate why they have a zero size.

Log from backup which suggest its not a fatal error

16.09.15 20:04 INFO Request of SYSVOL failed. Reason: Opening filesystem on device failed. Stopping… This probably just means the Computer does not have a “System restore” volume which UrBackup can backup


Windows 2003 does not have the System restore volume.

If I do not select them, I still get the same error.

CORRECTION:


Small update:

I ran “remove_unknown.bat” batch file and it reported me this:

When using the “assemble_disk_image.bat” file. Does it use the database to recreate the disk…if so, what happen if the SYSVOL are not in the database?

Can you try just selecting the Image_c volume for assembly first and see if it works?

Thanks, this virtual machine has 2 HD drive, I forgot that they are not a single drive so merging them was not working. My mistake. I did the C drive alone and its working now.
