Problem using VDR to restore a machine with RAW LUN

[dene]

I am having a problem restoring a machine using VDR.

The machine I am trying to restore has its OS on a standard VM volume and the data volume mounted as a RAW LUN, as expected it does not backup the RAW LUN but it will not allow me to restore the machines standard VM volume.

I get the error

"Trouble writing files, error -3956 (operation failed)"

This is not a disaster recovery at the moment but a test of the backup therefore I am renaming the machine on restore.

Any ideas?

Are you able to see the vmdk you want to restore in vDR?  If so, have you tried telling vDR to only restore that vmdk to a different datastore?

Here is an example:

You might see two or more depending on the VM.

I hope this help.
