Hi guys, little long so bear with me here.

Bascially I'm running backup exec system recovery 8.5 (60- day trial) I ran an image of one of my servers C drive to test for clone to new hardware.

everything went fine actually...only problem is on the new server (160GB/Free) when I boot up the system with the clone image on it it only shows 50free/68GB total (which is the older systems drive specs and the rest of the C drive is unallocated.

I want the clone on the new drive to use the entire drive...should be 140+free/160GB total

I toggled the option that pertains to unallocated space when using the recovery disk to restore the image to the new server.

when checked and I assign all the space 150,000 to my restore....it splits my disk in half and leaves the rest not uses as unallocated (not what I want)

when I uncheck the option....is shows all 160GB for the restore, but when I restore using this option and boot new server...still shows the left over C as unallocated space.

I'd like to use that entire C drive and mirror it to D which is also 160 is my goal here
