Hello,
I experimented around a bit with HBS 5.0 Beta and I think I found a bug which really should be looked at.
This is the scenario:
- A full disk backup is taken.
- You need to restore to a new disk which unfortunately is a little bit smaller than the original disk.
- This shouldn't be a problem as long as the current usage is below the new disk limit, right?
Unfortunately you cannot restore partitions with a smaller size, you get error 0x012C000A00000000.
I documented the whole process with different examples in a video:
Timestamps:
- 01:30 - Backup is taken (Windows 10)
- 04:58 - Disk restore #1 - Delta mode (successful)
- 06:06 - Disk restore #2 - Full mode (successful)
- 07:25 - Disk restore #3 - Full mode, smaller C: partition (error)
- 10:10 - Partition restore #1 - smaller C: partition (error)
- 12:50 - Partition restore #2 - smaller C: partition (error)
- 14:58 - Disk restore #4 - Full mode, smaller C: partition (error)
- 17:20 - Partition restore #3 - smaller System-reserved partition (error)
Hope that helps!
