Hello
I bought a new disk to backup our server. But now when I try to make a Backup Schedule, I get an error message:
The disk is formatted to NTFS.
Best regards
Kari

Hi,
Did you want to use windows server backup to back up BMR or something else?
Please tell me your server system and your source disk.
Please check if there is any event ID in Applications and Service Logs>Microsoft> Windows>Backup, if yes, please provide the detailed error information.
Note: BMR Cannot Be Performed from a Dynamic Disk Backup.
If any system component reside on a dynamic disk, backups running to any volume on the dynamic disk cannot run BMR. Since Automated System Recovery (ASR) restores the dynamic disk pack as a single unit, BMR cannot be performed from this type of backup. Hence, Windows Server Backup would not allow backups to run to dynamic disks if any dynamic disk hosts a critical volume.
Thanks for your time!
Best Regards,
Mico Mi

Hi good news
I don't know why, but now I managed to run diskpart in the server. I could delete first volume, but when I tried to delete the second volume, I got this message:
Virtual Disk Service error:
Cannot delete a protected partition without the force protected parameter set.
"Cannot delete a protected partition without the force protection parameter set."
This is a warning from Windows that you need to be doubly sure that you want to delete this partition.
If you see this error when trying to delete a partition then use:
delete partition override
Thanks again
I have in Disk Management in that disk three partitions. The second is "Healthy (Recovery)" and I cant even override it. Is it possible to remove the disk and format it in a client. We have docking stations where I could use that disk.
