Problem
Unable to convert a V2i file created by "cold" backup to VMDK from within the recovery environment ("from the SRD").
Error Message
No error
Cause
Not a feature of the recovery disk.
Solution
P2V conversion cannot be performed from the SRD. Conversions need to be done through an installed SSR console on either a server or workstation.
Note: By booting a virtual guest system that has mounted the VMDK file has a virtual disk, the V2i image could then be restored to this mounted VMDK file using the SRD.
Applies To
In the Veritas Recovery Environment via booting a system with the Veritas Recovery Disk.
