I've got a 2.24TB spanned/dynamic volume on a file server. I'm using Veeam to create replicas daily so I've got a lab environment to work in. The other day, I discovered that I cannot do file level restores using Veeam when using dynamic volumes. To remedy this, I want to do a combination of the following: shrink, break the span and convert to basic. I'm going to start playing w/ the replica now but I'm curious if anyone has encountered this before and if they were able to preserve the existing data as well as file/share permissions too (wishful thinking).
