Retrieving volume information...
This would backup the system state from volume(s) OS(D:),Local Disk(C:) to C:.
Do you want to start the backup operation?
[Y] Yes [N] No Y
One of the volumes specified for backup is invalid as it is either not on a fixe

My D: drive is labeled as OS and seems to only have the boot and BCD\BitLocker files. Is there a way for me to exclude the D: or can I convert it to NTFS without breaking my server?
Answer : Windows Server 2008 System State Backup fails due to FAT32 partition
I cannot think of any issues that it would cause.
I have converted boot partitions before without error, but never on a server.
