About Restoring Physical Imaging Standard to VHD/X Files

VHD/X is the virtual hard disk file type used by Microsoft’s Hyper-V hypervisor. This restore type restores a VHD/X for each volume that you select.

The ECHOplatform agent produces the following files depending on the format that the user chooses:

• VHD: Windows 7, Windows 2008, Windows 2008 R2
• VHDX: Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows 10, Windows 2012, Windows 2012 R2, Windows 2016

All virtual hard disks are recovered as dynamic disks.

Virtual hard disks take the following naming convention by default: Recovery_{machine_name}_{volume or volume group label}

You can attach the Hyper-V disks (VHD files) that are restored to an existing VM.
