I'm trying to complete an in-place upgrade of our servers which are running Server 2012 R2, Currently receiving the error 0xC1900101 - 0x2000D - The installation failed in the SAFE_OS phase with an error during MIGRATE_DATA operation and it fails at around 23% of the upgrade.

I've attached the setuperr.log file for your reference.

Things I've tried:

  • Clean boot
  • Removing old profiles
  • Repairing windows updates
  • DISM clean image
  • SFC repair
  • Chkdsk

Can anyone tell me the best way to fix this? Ideally, i don't want to have to start from scratch for all of my servers.

    The error code indicates it detected a driver that is not compatible with the newer OS. Review the setup logs to identify which driver is not compatible and remove it. Then try the upgrade again.

    Hello,

    Here are some steps you can try:

    1.Uninstall antivirus applications.

    2.Try to install the latest security update, then upgrade again.

    3.Update drivers from the manufacturer's official website such as display driver and BIOS.
