Win Server 2008 R2 Backup deletes existing set of backups on exernal USB drive

$
0
0

I am using Wbadmin with 3 external USB drives in rotation.  When I rotate in an external drive after one week, the backup deletes the existing sets on the drive before backing up.  What is causing this to happen?  It was not doing that before, it would just do a full or incremental backup to the drive.  I would like to keep a longer history of backups than just 2 weeks worth.

Thanks 

Windows 2008R2 backup problem

We have Windows server 2008R2 SP1 and Sharepoint 2010 web on it.

It's a real HP Proliant dl360 G7, and we have no 3rd party backup software, hyper-v or MSSQL services on it.

Backup doesn't work.

The error:

The backup operation stopped before completing.
Detailed error: ERROR - A Volume Shadow Copy Service operation error has
occurred: (0x800423f3)
The writer experienced a transient error.  If the backup process is retried,
the error may not reoccur.

A Volume Shadow Copy Service operation failed. Please check "VSS" and "SPP" application event logs for more information.

There is no vss or spp errors in app or system log with the exception of the failed backup job itself:

Hi

I Installed Windows Server 2012 R2 (Clean Installation) and I just installed "Winrar" and also I change one policy in Group Policy , after that I used Sysprep and checked the "Generalize" item, after that I used Windows PE (I made it before) and I used DISM Command for backup the install.wim file. But now the size of this file is too larger than the first WIM file! what should I do for create backup of install.wim with lower size?

Searched around and have seen others with this issue but no real solutions.

I have a 14TB Deduplicated volume that loses its vss about once a month. I just lost this lasts night and have seen some interesting stuff.

First the error

The shadow copies of volume E: were deleted because the shadow copy storage could not grow in time.  

Consider reducing the IO load on the system or choose a shadow copy storage volume that is not being shadow copied.


PS C:\Windows\system32> vssadmin list shadowstorage /for=e:

vssadmin 1.1 - Volume Shadow Copy Service administrative command-line tool(C) Copyright 2001-2012 Microsoft Corp.Shadow Copy Storage association

Used Shadow Copy Storage space: 507 MB (0%)   

Allocated Shadow Copy Storage space: 3.14 GB (0%)   

Maximum Shadow Copy Storage space: 1.40 TB (9%)


If i look at previous versions i only show the snapshot from this morning at 7:00 AM

However if i type vssadmin list shadows. it shows 30+ Contents of shadow copy set ID.

I am starting to run low on space but i still have over 20% free and over 3.1TB of space.

Any ideas here?

Dear Windows Expert,

I have a backup server running Windows server 2012 with the Windows Server Backup installed. I would like to do a remote backup of my Hyper V Server Running Windows Server 2008 R2. Is it possible? As we know that Windows Server backup on 2008 Windows is not able to backup Hyper V, that's why I am planning to use Windows Server Backup 2012 running on the other server.

Thanks.

Windows Backup and Hyper-V

Hi All,

I have noticed that when creating a Microsoft Backup image that VHD files are created for each of the partitions backed up.  In a typical Microsoft installed environment that includes a system reserved partition and the OS partition.  I have been able to create a virtual machines attaching each of these VHDs.  Neither will boot because the "bootstrap" on the system reserved partition does not find the OS partition on the same drive.  Does anyone know if it is possible to combine or join these VHDs somehow to get a bootable VM.

Thanks,

biosvalidate prompt during upgrade from 2008 r2 to 2012

I tried to upgrade from windows 2008 to 2012.

During the upgrade, it stopped on a DOS windows saying that biosvalidate.cmd could not be found.

I searched the CD for it, but did not locate it. So, I exited andsystem rebooted to the exact same place.

Why can I have but one full backup?

$

I have set a daily backup schedule, but Windows Server Backup only keeps one full backup. after the first backup, the next backup completes very quickly. I suppose it is doing differential backup. every time a scheduled backup completes, I only find one full backup on the folder while there is plenty of free space. PS: I am running Windows Server 2016 Preview 3

Can someone please help with this.  Thanks.  Currently my only fix has been delete the backup schedule altogether, and recreate it.  This is unacceptable as it first reformats the destination drive wiping out all previous backups.

Recent update of Windows 7 and Windows 10 broke Windows Server Essentials 2012 R2 backup?

Up until 11/13/2015, my Windows Server Essentials 2012 R2 have been successfully backup up two Windows 10 machines (Lenovo X201 and Surface Pro) and one Windows 7 machine (HP Desktop). I even recently successfully made a file restore for one of the machines. Then after the Windows Update Applied on 11/13/2015, all my backups have been failing with no error message.

"View Details" reports: 

Backup did not start on this volume.

To run a backup immediately, click “Start a backup for the computer”.

Is this a wide-spread error?

Failure during server back-up: 'there was a failure while compacting the virtual hard disk on the backup location'

I back-up my WS2012 R2 Essentials to a local HDD, attached via USB to the server. worked fine until a couple of weeks aga when I sterted getting errors.

After reading up on the forum I opened compmgmt.msc and looked at the local backup tab. When chacking one of the failed backup , under 'Items' it tells me:

EFI System partition:Compacting the virtual harddisks..
C: Completed
Recovery: Completed
Bare metal Recovery:Backup failed to complete

Under 'Errors' it give the same error message for both the EFI system partition and the Bare metal recovery:

There was a failure while compacting the virtual hard disk on the backup location. Detailed error: Data error (cyclic redundancy check)

Since I'm really an amateur and the server is just a hobby, I'm unsure on how to fix this error. Hope someone can help!

Thanks,

Creating an image of windows 7 Client - Best tool to use - Back up and restore??

I need to create an image of Windows 7 Client (with desktop background, applications and settings all kept as they are) to then put onto another Windows 7 Client. Which is the best tool to use this? Will 'create a system image' in backup and restore on the windows 7 client achieve this? Will it backup the desktop background also? I plan on backing up all drives.

Thanks in advance.

Please give your suggestion
