I had a WSB for 2012R2(Hyper-V VM) with the following fixed volumes.

When I perform Bare Metal Restore on another blank host(another Hyper-V VM with three disk),

wbadmin start sysrecovery -version:08/27/2020-06:24 -backupTarget:"\?\Volume{67e9db52-e91d-11ea-a635-00155d060465}" -recreateDisks -restoreAllVolumes -quiet

Sometimes it can be restored successfully, sometimes it(wbadmin get status ) will stuck on 'Bare Metal Recovery stage started: Running a recovery operation for volume LOGS(F:)' and the command 'diskpart' stucked also,

    Hi,
    Disable or uninstall security software temporarily to check.
    I consider that replace the backup drive and reconfigure a new backup. If the new backup fails then you have a problem on the server. If it doesn't it was the backup disk and you're done. Troubleshooting the server can be a chore. Check amount of free disk space on all the drives and start reading event logs.
    You might need to look at dump to find out where the hang is. Procdump is a choice.

    Please remember to accept the answer if they help.
