Thanks, The system
is definitely using that boot method.
Only their info on when this was starting to be used is off, We
have had the hardware for over a year now.

Here’s an excerpt from an
email that I received from Symantec…

To help you all understand
what the problem is I need you to understand Windows and how it works. In the
2008.
In Windows 2008 there are
several ways to configure the Boot Strap process from a single partition boot
to a boot from a boot partition, the issue the customer is having is because
they are using a new type of hardware boot called uEFI. This hardware boot was
something that just came out recently from several hardware vendors. Because it
is new neither BE NOR NBU are able to back it up yet, we have a potential
solution that we are working on BUT the issue remains that this is something
that we did not predict hardware vendors going to nor did we expect rapid
adoption by the field.
That being said we think we
are close to a resolution but it is not likely to be this week. Again we have
had to redesign portions of the product for this special boot partition.

Anyone have a hint what I
need to do? I am almost positive this is not NetBackup’s problem
but I need to make sure I can do a restore of the system regardless of whose
problem it is
