Has the system state backed up correctly, did you set the restore options to restore said system state, and the registry.

Its normal for the first repair to fail.

Try this, forget about veritas for a moment.

Backup the live server C: drive using the builtin "NTBACKUP" program, backup to a file on say the D: drive rather than to tape. Include the system state in this backup. Copy the large file to a blank dvd media or USB stick.

Restore that backup on the target server, including system state whilst in DS restore mode and then do the 2003 repair again.

Cheers will give that a go. :thumbup:
