Cannot convert Server 2008 R2 Machine get error: Instant The VSS cannot be stored, because there is not enough space on the source volumes or because the source computer does not all NTFS volumes. Error code: 2147754783 (0x8004231F).

I have a couple of server 08 R2 machines where the P to V conversion fails.  I did some research and the problem seems to be related to the system reserved Partition that has 0% available 100 MB free space.  Conversion fails with the error below.

VSS snapshots cannot be stored because there is not enough space on the source volumes or because the source computer has not all NTFS volumes. Error code:
2147754783 (0x8004231F).


Someone had this problem and came to the top with a solution or to get around?


Thanks in advance

Guessed it.  My snapshots Appassure did not also exist with a similar error, so that's what I did to solve it.  My servers now converted without any problem.

  1. Open disk management.
  2. Look at the partition of the PRS and see if it is 100% full.
    • If Yes, proceed to step 3.
    • If this is not the case, check if there are readers who have no more of 300 MB free (minimum requirement to use VSS).
  3. Click a drive, select properties and then select the instant snapshots tab.
  4. Ensure that all shadow copies are disabled and no limit on all players.
  5. Go to the partition of the SRP and assign the B:drive letter.
  6. Open the B: drive via disk management, and then locate the folder System Volume Information. Note: if necessary, change the folder options so that you can view hidden files, folders and drives.
  7. Right-click the System Volume Information folder, and then select Properties.
  8. On the Security tab, click Edit, and then add the group with full control everyone in the folder.
  9. Open the System Volume Information folder (you should see log files are full), open a running as an administrator command prompt and then type the following commands to unload the filter driver.
    • B:
    • B:\>FLTMC UNLOAD AAFSFLT
  10. Navigate to the System Volume Information folder, and then type the following commands:
    • B:\>CD System Volume Information
    • B:\System Volume Information > AALOG_ DEL * (this will remove all of the log files, and then re-create a new)
    • B:\System Volume Information > CD\
    • B:\>FLTMC LOAD AAFSFLT
  11. Close the command prompt window.
  12. In Windows, right click on the reserve system folder and remove the Group everyone.
  13. In Disk Manager, remove the B: drive (and click Yes when prompted with a warning window).

  • I get error Code 80070002 when I try to install Service Pack 1.

    Vista will not be updated to the Service Pack 1 or 2

    I have Vista and have windows automatically updates.  Of course, it is never updated with the Service Pack 1 or 2, and when I go to Windows updates, it says I have no updates available.  Recently I had trouble with my anti-virus software, and they said it was because my computer has not been updated.  I didn't know that I was not common.   However, I get error Code 80070002 when I try to install Service Pack 1, so SP2 cannot be downloaded until I get this one.  I tried everything I could find as an aid, but they were especially when people had problems years ago, when it came out.  What can I do?

    Hi kimber222,

    If these steps are not successful, the next step is and InPlace upgrade. This process is an alternative to reinstalling the operating system. During the process, some of your custom Windows settings may be lost.

    Run a repair installation will restore your current install of Windows to the version of the installtion CD/DVD. You will have to reinstall all the updates that are not included on the CD/DVD.

    Although this process should not damage files and the applications installed on your computer, it is always safe to make sure that you have a recent backup of your data and how to reinstall all software you have installed.

    Fill out the next step for the InPlace upgrade:

    1. Close all open applications.
    2. Insert the Windows Vista CD/DVD intot he computers CD/DVD drive.
    3. In the windows installation program, click install now.

    Note If Windows does not automatically detect the DVD, follow these steps:

    Click on start and type Drive: \setup.exein the box to start the search.

    Note The placeholder drive is the drive letter of the computer's DVD.

    List programs, click Setup.exe.

    In the settings window, click install now.

    1. click on connect to get the latest updates for installation (recommended).

    2. type the CD key if you are prompted to do so.

    3. Select the operating system in the "Windows Installer" page you want to update or Inplace.

    4. click Yesto accept the Microsoft software license agreement.

    5. on the which type of installation you want? of the screen, click upgrade.

    6. when the installation is complete, restart your computer.
