idera r1soft partition has the same identifier

Error:
[plain]
Can not back up /dev/sdb partition since /dev/sda partition has the same identifier.
[/plain]
It caused because fdisk does not correctly write the partition ID when partitioning a disk.

CDP requires all partitions to have a unique ID even if the partition has not been selected for backup.

Solution
[bash]
root@shell:~# /usr/sbin/r1soft/bin/r1soft-partid /dev/sda
Current disk identifier: 349AF3B1
New disk identifier: 62C51E8D
[/bash]
