stertinius Posted March 24, 2013 Author Share Posted March 24, 2013 I will like to thank every one who replied and offered suggestions. Unfortunately everything that I tried ended up in failure. I am unable to use the backup feature in whs 2011. So I will use what I have been using and that is Acronis backup to a portable usb hard drive. This is not very convenient but at least it provides me with a backup solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikon Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Nope, it's a RealTek card. http://homeservershow.com/forums/index.php?/gallery/image/244-realtek-driver/ Well, that's a first for me. Not one of my 4 RealTek cards will do a BMR without loading the generic RealTek drivers; you know, the ones that don't come with the WHS Client Restore disc.

jmwills Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 I don't use the disc. I use the restore folder from the server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikon Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 How are you creating boot media from that folder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmwills Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Nope, it starts a restore process and you can designate a target location for the restore. The folder path is: C:\Program Files\Windows Server\Bin\Client Restore\1FAE........\x64 or x86 depending on the client. Copy that folder over to any client and you can restore and client to any target. I restored my Laptop as it was and then from a secondary client, restored the same image to another 2.5" in a docking station for the same laptop.

ikon Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 So it will restore a system that's currently running? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmwills Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 To the best that I remember, yes. Won't swear to it. Sounds like it's time for a little virtual testing tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ikon Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Nope. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2095605/?ref_=sr_1. I have a funny feeling it will prove to be better, and truer, than ZD30 (when I finally get to watching it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
