Does anybody knows on how to fix " The trust relationship between this workstation and the primary domain failed " it appears on the client side using windows server 2008 r2.

i tried to access using administrator account but i cannot logged in. what should i do next pls.

Ram

In the last few days the server backup has been failing. I rotate two external drives and it happens on both.

The error is: "The volume shadow copy operation failed with error 0x800423F4. View the event log for more information."

I have checked the event log and there are numerous entries relating to SQL instances, but how I am supposed to correct them I do not know.

Please advise!

since windows has changed I've several problems with my pc and I tried to restore but even that didn't work, it really sucks since I work with vista 

 Does Window's center ever call people to tell them they are showing virus coming through on their server? I had a person call (of course with an accent) that stated that I had virus hitting the windows center and he had to remote in to remove them from my system. He did have me go to the event viewer and I have tons of errors showing, but how can I trust this person is actually from windows?? I wouldn't let him remote in, and I tried to run a malware program which did find 3 issues and they are removed, however, how do I remove these errors this guy from "windows" is talking about?? And would it really be windows calling??

Hi guys.

Currently we are ussing a powershell script which runs:

$backuplocation = \\networkshare\EXCHANGE-DB

wbadmin start backup -backupTarget:$backuplocation -include:"D:\ExchangeDB" -vssfull -quiet | Out-FileForce "$backuplog"

With this script we are making BACKUP od EXCHANGE databases.

We want to prepare another powershell script which would backup the hole system one a week, but we would like to know what's the right syntax: We would like to include:
* bare metal recovery
* system state
* system reserved
* Local disk C:

So this would look like wbadmin start backup -backupTarget:$backuplocation2 -include:??????

One more question regarding making Exchange backups on network share.
Is there anyhow possible to achieve incremental backups?

Hi, wonder if someone can help me. I have a 2008 R2 server, virtual machine, which runs a backup everyday around 16:30 to a remote share. Shortly after the backup starts the following error is presented in Event Viewer:

This has been happening ever since the server has been set up. The backups complete successfully.

Any ideas?

Hi,

I am tring to restore a Server 2008 R2 Standard Ed (full installation) RTM to a virtual machine, from a full Windows Server Backup image taken of a physical machine (Dell PE 2970).  All restores fine, and looks good until it tries to boot, when a Stop Error occurs, with the following error:

*** STOP: 0x0000007B (0xFFFFF880009A9928, 0xFFFFFFFFC0000034, 0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000)

I believe the non-bracketed portion means "INACCESSABLE_BOOT_DEVICE".

There is only the System Reserved volume + a C: volume (system volume) + F: volume (DVD drive) on the original server.  It has had other volumes in it before, which are correctly listed in the MountedDevices registry key, but they have not been physically present for a while.

The virtual disk I'm trying to restore to is several GBs larger than the original virtual disk on the RAID controller (2 disks in RAID 1).

I can't figure out why the server isn't booting.  I've successfully restored Server 2008 machines from physical machines to VMs before, including servers using hardware RAID cards (e.g. Dell SAS 6/iR).  The only difference I can think of is that this is Server 2008 R2, this is a 2 proc server (I've tried several virtual proc numbers on the VM to no avail), and the RAID controller is PERC 6/i, and this is the first server I've tried with that particular RAID card.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, even if it's to point out that I'm looking in the wrong direction.

Many thanks,

Chris

I'm trying to recreate a backup schedule after numerous errors.  The drive is an external USB drive that worked fine until it was almost full, then the backups started failing.  It's not mission critical so I reformatted the external USB drive (which was working on this system using Windows Server Backups - so I doubt it's the drive) and tried to recreate the scheduled backups.  Using the wizard, it adds 2 drives automatically - theC: and D: drive.  All I want is the C: drive which is the system drive.  The D: drive contains only data (no system) which is already backed up over the network...

I'll try and update thread with image once I'm verified...  :/

How do I deselect the D: drive from my backups?  It worked for about a year only backing up theC: drive and I have no idea what changed...

Hi please help, Windows Server backup keeps failing with an error "The drive cannot find the sector requested", I am doing a full backup to an external drive which has been dedicated for backups, it does about 94.6gb out of 95gb so is close to finishing. I have performed a check disk, updated all my hardware drivers (its a HP server with hardware mirrored drives), I am at a loss - does anyone have any ideas or solutions.

I have uninstalled and rebooted the server and then reinstalled but still get the same error

Also must add that this is a live server, oh and is my first server 2012 install (soon to be last!!)

Trying to sort out backup issues.  Our agency recently installed six new Dell PowerEdge T110 II servers running Windows Server 2012 Standard.  Each is at a different physical location, but sites are connected via VPN to our network.  We also purchased several Western Digital 3TB My Book Essentials external hard drives with one connected to each server via usb (these are usb 3.0 capable, but the servers don't have 3.0 ports).  We have set up Windows Server Backup to do a daily backup to these drives which initially works on all of them.  We have the data being backed up on our network using another solution as well.

The backup jobs are identical on each machine [Bare metal recovery, System State, System Reserved, Local Disk (C:), and Data (E:)].  Also included is the advanced VSS Full Backup option.  I started remotely connecting to these machines from the main office each morning after backups ran to be certain that they backups completed (which they did initially).  All was OK, then one randomly failed & continued to fail because the drive was unavailable.  Windows Event Viewer shows"Windows Backup cannot find any of the backup storage locations" and the drive does not show in Disk Management.

I then drive across town to the location and have to disconnect power & usb to the drive, wait a little bit, then reconnect and it will come up and be recognized again and work for a few days.  This has happened to all of them but not at the same time.

I've remoted to each server and made sure the USB hubs in device manager have the box unchecked that allows the OS to turn off the device to save power as I thought that might be the problem.  That didn't help.

My next step is to go to the locations and try to run firmware updates on the drives, but I haven't found any documentation as to whether this is really a fix for what is happening. WD tells me those drives might work, but that Windows Server 2012 is not supported. We are a non-profit and cannot afford to replace all of these drives so I hope I can get them working and that the backups are restorable.

Has anybody seen this issue and know what the fix is? This is driving me nuts.  Please help.  Thank you.

Hi ,

Im unable to find windows server backup tool .I have installed the windows backup feature from server manager for 2012 standard server. But after installing I dont know how to find the backup tool. It was so direct in previous versions.Tried searching everywhere.Please help.

Thanks in advance

I've got a Dell PET110 that came to me with 2 500GB drives as separate drives, rather then in a RAID 1, like I requested. Unfortunately, I did not realize this until after I had set it up & figured I could just run a backup, create my RAID & restore from that backup, but keep getting the error message shown in pics included. I'm using an external USB drive for backup & have tried not plugging it in until I'm asked to locate backup, as I've read booting with USB drive attached can cause problems. The process does see my backup, but once I try to start the restore process, it craps out! I am able to restore the backup to the drives with no problem if I set them back as two separate drives. I'd also like to point out that I am not backing up anything from the 2nd drive, as I thought it might be confused trying to restore from 2 drives to one. Also, there is plenty of free space on new drives. I had thought about shrinking the original drive before backing up, so it would appear I was going from a smaller drive to a larger one, but ran out of time & just put everything back as it was. Dell has been no help on this, unless I'd like to pay for a higher support plan. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

My Bare metal recovery protection started failing this week on a Windows Server 2008 R2 Ent. SP1 machine.  The machine in question is an Exchange 2010 SP2 Enterprise UR 4 v2 database server.  This server is protected by Microsoft System Center Data Protection Manager 2010 ver 3.0.7707.0.  I don't believe the problem is DPM 2010 related as I get the same errors when using Windows Server Backup.  I have rebooted the server and disabled the antivirus software but still had the same errors.  Here are the relative alerts, event viewer logs and list writer details:

 Affected area: Computer\System Protection

Occurred since: 9/11/2013 9:24:21 AM

Description: The replica of System Protection Computer\System Protection on [Server Name] is inconsistent with the protected data source. All protection activities for data source will fail until the replica is synchronized with consistency check.

Hi,

I recently run Windows Backup tool in order to do full backup ofthe server. And tool Reported that Backup size will be   50 GB. I run the tool and at the end I only end up with 20 GB of backup data. I selected everything  including system state baremetal recovery and two disks. I am wondering why only 20 GB when it says 50 GB at the beggining.

Does this tool do some kind of compression. I am not sure whether I can use this backup if it is more than half in size. At the end of backup it says it is successful so I dont understand why half in size for backup

Hi,

I have a domain with 2 Domain Controllers, DC1 and DC2 that run windows server 2008 R2.

DC1 holds Schema master, Domain naming master, PDC, RID and DC2 holds Infrastructure master. DC1 is GC also.

I take a backup from DC1 include C volume, System State and Bare Metal (Volume D not included).

I have a new server with a clean hard disk. I boot this server from Windows Server 2008 R2 DVD and in first step I select repair option to recover this server from the windows image backup. But if I recover this image on the new server (with different hardware configuration) it will go to the blue screen and restart very fast.

Is my backup policy true?

How can I recover the backup.

We have several smaller to midsized customers that have invested money in tape drives and tapes. They are using Symantec BackupExec on Server 2003 / 2008 and 2008 R2. Unfortunately, Symantec postponed Server 2012 support in their products  many times already. This fact costs us many business opportunities to upgrade infrastructures to Server 2012.

DPM 2012 is good for larger customers, but less suited for smaller companies (and the DPM "philosophy change" of the backup procedures, compared to older tape based backup solutions is an obstacle as well.)

So we are looking for EASY backup solutions that support tape drives and server 2012. The "perfect" product for us would be just a tape driver and an extension to the integrated Windows Server Backup that would allow to store backups on tapes, the same way that Windows Backup allows backups to network shared folders.

Does anyone knows EASY backup software that provides this functionality? I'm also very interested in feedback from peoples that have successfully used such products on Server 2012 and are satisfied with them.

Thank you all in advance for any help.

Franz
