I made a bootable disk but the SYSTEMSTATE restore always fails with this message:
Total number of objects restored: 19 Total number of objects failed: 0 Total number of bytes transferred: 2.06 MB Data transfer time: 0.82 sec Network data transfer rate: 2,566.27 KB/sec Aggregate data transfer rate: 210.28 KB/sec Elapsed processing time: 00:00:10 Waiting for pre-restore to complete ['._']. ANS1459E VSS Automated System Recovery (ASR) failed. " I found this old posting https://adsm.org/forum/index.php?threads/tsm-disaster-recovery-problems-with-server-2012-and-uefi.27388/ where a few people had this same issue, so I tried the command they said worked to create a good boot image: oscdimg -m -n -o -bootdata:2#p0,e,bc:\winpe_x64\fwfiles\ etfsboot.com#pEF,e,bc:\winpe_x64\fwfiles\efisys.bin c:\winpe_x64\media c:\winpe_x64.iso This did not make any difference. Any idea what the issue might be?
