Reply to Cannot replicate a bootable Big Sur using asr.
Beta 8 is better. I can finish the apfs operation: Password: Validating target...done Validating source...done Replicating ....10....20....30....40....50....60....70....80....90....100 Replicating ....10....20....30....40....50....60....70....80....90....100 Restored target device is /dev/disk3s2.

Thanks sux2mfgj. I just installed beta 7, and there are some improvements: my startup disk is now correctly sealed. I tried with "toSnapshot" option on beta 7, and it's better: I can see a different error :) Validating target...done Validating source...done Couldn't set up partitions on target device - operation AddAPFSVolumeToContainer, line #5330 - error 49231 I also noticed that other vendors have the same problem. Let's hope it will be fixed for GM.

I have a slightly different problem: I can't make replication work. sudo asr restore --source / --target /Volumes/BB --erase Validating target...done Validating source... Source volume format on device "/dev/disk4s5s1" is not valid for restoring Could not validate source - Permission denied or sudo asr restore --source /dev/disk4s5 --target /dev/disk5s1 --erase Validating target...done Validating source... The source volume cannot be restored because it has a broken seal Could not validate source - Invalid argument Indeed, APFS seal seems broken on my system volume. But I don't know what could have broke this seal, how to fix that, and why it prevents completely volume replication from working
