Mapping volumes
You can choose to map volumes to the disks on the target server automatically or manually. For
automatic disk alignment, the disk is cleaned and repartitioned and all data is deleted. The alignment is
performed in the order the volumes are listed and the volumes are allocated to the disks appropriately
according to size, and so on. Multiple volumes can use a disk. If you manually map the drives, you cannot
use the same disk twice.
For manual mapping, you must already have the new machine correctly formatted before restoring it.
To map volumes:
1.
To automatically map volumes, do the following:
a. On the
Disk Mapping
page of the
Restore Machine Wizard
, select the
Automatically Map
Volumes
tab.
b. In the
Disk Mapping
area, under
Source Volume
, verify that the source volume is selected and
that the appropriate volumes are both listed beneath and are selected.
c. If the destination disk that is automatically mapped is the correct target volume, select
Destination Disk
.
