V-79-57344-34028 - A backup storage read/write error has occurred.

Dear experts,

I backup my Windows infrastruture with BE 2012 Ver 14.0 1798 on a Windows Server 2008 R264-bit as Media server 

every time when I select the "System State" with my backup selection the job fails with following error messge.

 

"Storage device "StoreOnce" reported an error on a request to write data to media.

Error reported:

0x17
V-79-57344-34028 - A backup storage read/write error has occurred."

 

when I take the "system state" out of the backup selection the job runs with out any complications. 

But for DR I need to backup the "system state" every windows 2008 machines.

Please healp !

Regards from Vienna

    Sorry, this shouldn't have happened. I'll push the case forward from my end.

    ...is Advanced Open File Option selected for the job? If not, turn it on and try again.

    Thanks!

    Hi Craig !

     

    I tried both way (with and without AOFO). But unfortunately no success.

    Check that the disk that you are backing up to does not use 4k sector sizes. If it does, you need to reformat it to 512e sector size before you can backup the system state to it

    ... the backup senario is as folloes;

    non dedub / disk-based backup / the job is for the media server itself /

    purpose of the job is to be ready for the DR  of BE Media Server.

     

    Unfortunately the TN above does not help to resolve the partcular issue.

    Thanks

    ...have you tried to recreate the job? Is there an antivirus installed, and is it not possibly blocking access to the System State?

    ... yes I've recreated the job and no Antivirus installed. Strangely enough it's not on every media server though them all have the same configuration on the same OS. The error arise out of the blue and the BE is no more capable of System State backup. Recreation of the job on B2D or B2T gives me the same error message. This is really a desaster !

    Did you check your disk like I told you to earlier? https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/forums/v-79-57344-34028-backup-storage-readwrite-error-has-occurred#comment-10903451

    Does a native Windows backup of System State complete successfully ?

    Does a BE backup of System State (without GRT) complete successfully ?

    @ pkh;  The LUNs are presented through dedicated HP StoreOnce storages for each BE Media-Server. And they are not using 4k sector sizes. 
    The System State backups were always     successful untill this errorr started to apear.

    @ VJware; Everey System State Backup Jobs is nateive to each server as each srever has it's own BE isntallation.
    I do not get this error with Exchange or Share point backups where the jobs are configured with GRT. 

    Its only on natvie Windows backups which inclueds the System State (for DR of course).

    where do I activate or deactivate GRT option on a backup job when only system state and the system Drive are selected.? I just cant find it.
