Invalid Disk Layout: The disk layout of the selected target does not match with the one in the recovery point. A data restore will be performed.

Problem

Restoring from an GPT destination disk to an MBR target disk results in the error. The restore completes, but will not boot. 

Error Message

Rebooting after the restore results in boot failure 0xc0000225. 

Cause

This can occur when the source server was on an MBR disk but the destination is initialized as a GPT disk, or vice-versa. The boot data cannot be written to the disk, and Windows boot repair doesn't resolve the issue. 

Solution

Convert the target disk to the GPT or MBR.

From the SRD menu, :

1. Select ANALYZE
2. Select OPEN COMMAND SHELL WINDOW
3. Type DISKPART
4. At the DISKPART prompt, type LIST DISK
5. Determine which disk is the target of the restore. You must be 100% sure before proceeding. 
6. Type SELECT DISK x where x is the disk number of the target (example: select disk 1)
7. Type CLEAN. It will take a few moments to complete. ( Warning!! This will delete everything on the selected drive. Once done, it cannot be undone. )
8. Type CONVERT GPT to convert the disk to GPT, or type CONVERT MBR to convert to MBR. 
9. A message should confirm the conversation.
10. Type EXIT, then EXIT again. Proceed with the restore.
