Restore to a Hyper-V Virtual Machine

Before you can perform a remote restore on a Hyper-V virtual machine you must perform the following procedure on the Windows Server 2003(x64).

Note: Microsoft does not provide a driver for Legacy Network Adapter for Windows 2003 (x64), so you must use the default Network Adapter to perform recovery.

To perform recovery on a Hyper-V virtual machine

1. Start the disaster recovery process.
2. When Disaster Recovery wizard appears, from Hyper-V VM console, select Action, and insert Integration Service Setup Disk.
3. Open a command window from disaster recovery wizard.
4. Switch to the CD / DVD drive and switch to folder support\amd64 and enter setup.exe.
5. Run the setup wizard to complete setup process using the default settings.

   Important! Do not reboot the server when the setup prompts you to reboot.

6. Switch backup to disaster recovery wizard and start recovery.

For Windows 2003(x86) and 2008(x86, x64), starting the disaster recovery process, add a Legacy Network Adapter to the virtual machine.

To add Legacy Network Adapter

1. Select Settings, and then select Add Hardware.

   The Add Hardware dialog appears.

2. Select the Legacy Network Adapter.

   The network adapter dialog appears.

   The legacy network adapter is added.

Driver of the Legacy Network Adapter is included in Windows installation media, so do not install integration service during disaster recovery process.

Note: In Windows 2003 (x86), you must install Hyper-V Integration Services after performing disaster recovery and reboot, else the NIC and other services included in Integration Services will not work.
