Create VHD Files from CA ARCserve Central Host-Based VM Backup

This CA ARCserve D2D procedure lets you create a Virtual Hard Disk (VHD) file from the recovery point that is created after every successful backup. For more information, see the CA ARCserve D2D Appendix.

Follow these steps:

1. Perform the Copy Recovery Points procedure.
2. When the copy is finished, browse to the destination you specified and navigate to the CA ARCserve D2D host.
3. Open the folder, VStore\S0000000001.
4. Locate all files with a D2D extension and change each to VHD. After you rename all files, you can use them as regular VHD files.
