The problem:
A few days ago I had a customer running a Primary Windows 2000 Domain server, installed on a Dynamic Disk, that consisted of two partitions (System C:\ & Data D\:).
The disk had errors and it should be replaced before final failure.
I looked at the internet for a program for dynamic disk cloning.
At first I made an attempt with Acronis Enterprise Server v9.1 boot CD, but I didn’t have luck.
When I ran the Acronis application, the first problem was that the application cloned the partitions and not the entire dynamic disk, and the second problem was that the disk was not bootable and presented an error about corrupt files or something like this.
I continued trying other products, from other companies, but as with the Acronis Enterprise Server application, none of them cloned dynamic disks or if they proceeded with the entire process of cloning, (like HDClone from http://www.miray.de), the final result was boot problems with corrupt files.
After many hours of testing, reading and failed tries, I finally found one procedure that worked for me.
