Description

Challenge

A Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows backup job displays the following warning: Partition ## exceeds disk ## layout by ## bytes

Cause

These messages occur when Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows detects an incorrectly allocated partition on a disk.

Solution

To correct the allocation issue, use the Windows OS built-in shrink tool to shrink the specified partition on the specified disk. Open Disk Management (diskmgmt.msc). Using the disk number and partition number values in the warning, identify which partition needs to be shrunk.In most cases, it's the last partition on the disk. Example: Warning Partition 2 exceeds disk 0 layout by 97923072 bytes
