<h2 id="problem-description">Problem Description</h2>
<p>After migrating a Windows VM from VMware vCenter to PCD using vJailbreak, additional disks (beyond the primary C: drive) may not be visible inside the Windows operating system, even though they are successfully attached to the VM in PCD.</p>
<h3 id="symptoms">Symptoms</h3>
<ul>
<li>The VM migrates successfully and shows as active in PCD</li>
<li>PCD shows all volumes/disks are attached (e.g., 3 disks attached)</li>
<li>Inside the Windows VM, only the primary C: drive is visible</li>
<li>Additional drives (e.g., E:, F:, G:) that existed before migration are missing</li>
<li>The disks exist but are in an “Offline” state in Windows Disk Management</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="root-cause">Root Cause</h3>
<p>This issue occurs due to Windows SAN Policy settings. When Windows detects disks on a SAN (Storage Area Network), it applies a policy that determines whether new disks are automatically brought online or kept offline.</p>
<p>After migration from VMware to PCD, the storage subsystem changes, and Windows may apply the <strong>“Offline Shared”</strong> SAN policy to the migrated disks. This policy keeps disks offline by default to prevent data corruption in shared storage scenarios.</p>
<p>The default SAN policies in Windows are:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Offline Shared</strong>: Keeps all shared disks offline (common after migration)</li>
<li><strong>Offline All</strong>: Keeps all new disks offline</li>
<li><strong>Online All</strong>: Automatically brings all new disks online</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="manual-workaround">Manual Workaround</h2>
<p>Before migrating the VM, you can manually fix this issue by changing the SAN policy and bringing disks online.</p>

<p>Check File Explorer - your drives (E:, F:, G:, etc.) should now be visible.</p>
<h2 id="automated-solution">Automated Solution</h2>
<p>vJailbreak provides automated scripts to detect and fix this issue during first boot after migration.</p>
<h3 id="available-scripts">Available Scripts</h3>
<p>Two BAT scripts are available in the <code dir="auto">scripts/firstboot/windows/</code> directory. These scripts generate PowerShell scripts that run on first boot:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong><code dir="auto">check-disks.bat</code></strong> - Generates a diagnostic PowerShell script that only checks disk status</li>
<li><strong><code dir="auto">disk-online-fix.bat</code></strong> - Generates an automated fix PowerShell script that brings offline disks online</li>
</ol>
<p><strong>Usage</strong>: Copy the contents of either BAT file and paste it into the <strong>Post Migration Script</strong> field in the migration form. The script will execute automatically on first boot after migration.</p>
<h3 id="script-1-check-disks-diagnostic-only">Script 1: Check Disks (Diagnostic Only)</h3>
<p>The <code dir="auto">check-disks.bat</code> script generates <code dir="auto">check-disks.ps1</code> which performs a read-only analysis:</p>
<ul>
<li>Scans all physical disks</li>
<li>Reports operational status (Online/Offline)</li>
<li>Lists partitions and drive letter assignments</li>
<li>Identifies disks without drive letters</li>
<li>Checks for read-only disks and health issues</li>
<li>Generates a detailed report at <code dir="auto">C:\DiskStatus_Report.txt</code></li>
</ul>
<h3 id="script-2-disk-online-fix-automated-repair">Script 2: Disk Online Fix (Automated Repair)</h3>
<p>The <code dir="auto">disk-online-fix.bat</code> script generates and executes <code dir="auto">check-disks-fix.ps1</code> which automatically fixes offline disk issues:</p>
<ul>
<li>Performs all diagnostic checks from Script 1</li>
<li><strong>Automatically brings ALL offline disks online</strong></li>
<li>Logs all actions to <code dir="auto">C:\DiskStatus_Report.txt</code></li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Note</strong>: The generated PowerShell script (<code dir="auto">check-disks-fix.ps1</code>) is a separate file from the diagnostic-only <code dir="auto">check-disks.ps1</code>. It includes all diagnostic functionality plus automated repair capabilities.</p>
<h2 id="️-important-warnings">⚠️ Important Warnings</h2>
<h3 id="blanket-online-policy">Blanket Online Policy</h3>
<p>The automated fix script uses a <strong>blanket approach</strong> to bring ALL offline disks online without discrimination. This is necessary because:</p>
<ul>
<li>Pre-migration disk states (online/offline) are unknown</li>
<li>The script cannot determine if a disk was intentionally kept offline before migration</li>
<li>This is designed for automated firstboot scenarios after VM conversion</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="risks-and-considerations">Risks and Considerations</h3>
<ol>
<li>
<p><strong>Intentionally Offline Disks</strong>: If the source VM had disks that were intentionally kept offline (for backup, security, or operational reasons), the script will bring them online. This may not align with your original configuration.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Shared Storage</strong>: In environments with shared storage, bringing disks online indiscriminately could potentially cause issues if the same disk is accessed by multiple systems.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Testing Required</strong>: Always test this script in a non-production environment first to ensure it aligns with your migration policy.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>No Drive Letter Assignment</strong>: The script does NOT automatically assign drive letters to partitions. If a partition lacks a drive letter, you must assign it manually using Disk Management or PowerShell cmdlets.</p>
</li>
</ol>
<h3 id="recommendations">Recommendations</h3>
<ul>
<li>Review the diagnostic output from <code dir="auto">check-disks.bat</code> before running the automated fix</li>
<li>Document which disks should be online in your source environment</li>
<li>Test the migration process with a non-critical VM first</li>
<li>Review the log file at <code dir="auto">C:\DiskStatus_Report.txt</code> after running the fix script</li>
<li>Manually verify that all expected drives are accessible after the fix</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="prevention">Prevention</h2>
<p>To prevent this issue in future migrations, you can:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Pre-configure SAN Policy</strong>: Before migration, set the SAN policy on the source VM to <code dir="auto">OnlineAll</code></li>
<li><strong>Post-migration Automation</strong>: Copy the contents of <code dir="auto">disk-online-fix.bat</code> into the Post Migration Script field in the migration form</li>
<li><strong>Document Disk States</strong>: Maintain documentation of which disks should be online/offline for each VM</li>
</ol>

during conversion. Windows VMs whose system volume is on a dynamic disk (LDM) skip
conversion, so the Post Migration Script does not run for them — the SAN policy
<strong>must</strong> be set on the source VM beforehand. Leaving a disk offline on these guests
breaks the LDM volume set. See
