"System shutdown unexpted" message on machine after restore
Hi,
I am using trial verison of Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 - Virtual Edition with ESX 4i.
what I have done is backup VM on ESX 4i Server.
Then, I did restore for evaluation purpose.
When I start server and log on first time after recovery. I will get the message about "system was shutdown unexpected" and ask me to put reason. This happen with 2 guest OS (windows server 2003, windows server 2008), so far I tested.
my understanding is the backup has been done while VM is running. So, it is not in the save state.
that's why I get the message. However, I do have a few question regarding to this.
1. Is this some thing by design of Acronis software?
2. Will it have any problem with recovery server as it recover with non-save state? I read through some forum about recovery VM from non-save state backup may cause the problem to VM later
I'm not sure wheter Acronis tech guys will come have a look on this forum. but, any advise from any one are greatly appreciated. As, I am currently evaluating this software. So, I can figure out pro and con of it to compare with other products.
Thanks

Having this "issue" with Win7 64-bit and Acronis TrueImage 2010 Home, but I believe Oleg's answer applies here also. Thanks for the answer.
