Workaround:

Please note that the following workaround is specific to restore to a HP ProLiant DL320e G8 server that has a B120i RAID controller.

1. Boot off the System Recovery Disk (SRD)
2. Go to Utilities/Load a Driver (provide hpsa2.inf to load the driver so that disks can be seen prior to starting the restore)
3. Start the Recover My Computer wizard
4. De-select the 'Use Restore Anyware to recover to different computer' option
5. De-select the 'Reboot when finished' option
6. When restore is complete, go to Analyze/Explore My Computer and make a note of the drive letter that is assigned to the restore system (for example. G:)
7. Go to command prompt and run the following command: Dism /Image:G: /Add-Driver /Driver:"<driverpath>\hpsa2.inf" (replace c:\<driverpath with the location where you have copied the driver to)
8. Reboot server
