I.11 Two or More Volumes Have the Same Volume Serial Number

Issue: When you attempt to set up a migration job for a Windows server, the following error is displayed:

[Source] Two or more volumes have the same serial number. Change the serial numbers so that they are unique and rediscover the machine.

Workaround: This problem can occur if the Volume Serial Numbers for two or more volumes are the same. PlateSpin Migrate requires the serial numbers to be unique.

To resolve this issue, modify the serial numbers for the data volumes as appropriate, and then rediscover the machine. For information about how to use Windows native tools to modify the serial numbers, see KB Article 7921101.
