"System image backup fails after you upgrade to Windows 8.1 or Windows Server 2012 R2"
Very simple procedure; all I can add is once all is completed, if you had to move the Recovery Partition to the end of the disk like I did, you'll need to update the Windows Server Backup Schedule as the 'Recovery' partition ID will have changed and WSB fails if you have not updated the schedule.
