Windows System Image Recovery
In the event of a complete system failure, it might be necessary to restore a Windows Server 2012 system in its entirety. If this is the case, perform the same steps as a system volume recovery, except on the Choose Additional Restore Options page, check the Format And Repartition Disks check box. This restores all the disks and also performs the disk partitioning, drive letter assignment, and mounted volume configuration. If different-size disks are provided, the restore partitions the disks based on the original size of the disk volumes only. Smaller disks will cause the restore to fail, but larger disks can easily be extended after the recovery completes successfully.
