Hi,
I have a 2 cluster node environment, Windows server 2012 Standard installed. Backup solution used is EMC Networker.
The problem that I'm facing is that when we try to backup the passive node, The backup fails due to the fact that it searches for a volume path that is active/online on the active node j:\usr\sap\kp1\ascs11\exe.
Event Id 8193, VSS -- I am receiving at every backup attempt:
