Hey,
I'm trying to backup my Windows Server 2008 R2 (physical server). Windows Server Backup tool crashes when I start to start it. It gives me error "A fatal error occurred during a Windows Server Backup snap-in (Wbadmin.msc) operation. Error details: The Windows Server Backup service has stopped.
Errors I get to event viewer:
ASR Warning: Failed to collect disk information for ASR Backup. Reason: Unable to obtain disk information for device 14 (Win32 error code 0x1).
ASR Warning: Failed to collect disk information for ASR Backup. Reason: Unable to obtain disk information for device 10 (Win32 error code 0x1).
ASR Warning: Failed to collect disk information for ASR Backup. Reason: Unable to obtain disk information for device 3 (Win32 error code 0x1).
ASR Warning: Failed to collect disk information for ASR Backup. Reason: Unable to obtain disk information for device 1 (Win32 error code 0x1).
The following process dump file was generated:C:\Program Files\DebugDiag\Logs\Crash rule for all instances of wbengine.exe\wbengine__PID__9716__Date__07_04_2014__Time_03_08_24PM__911__First chance exception 0XE06D7363.dmp
These devices (disks) that are showing in warnings arent initialized from Disk Management. If I open Disk Management, it always pops up prompt to initialize disks. I havent initialized these disks cause I already have them in use, but Windows regonizes those disks twice cause I'm using multipath. I shouldnt initialize one physical disk twice.
I think seeing these disks twice is crashing my Windows Server Backup. Is there a way to disable specific disks for Windows Server Backup? Can I disable those disks somehow, so Windows Server Backup wouldnt see those disks twice? Or can I somehow tell Windows that its seeing my disks twice, and there is actually only one disk instead of two.
