backup partially successul with WRN - can't open file: System State:\System Files\System Files (WIN32 -536805667: Unknown error)

i encounter an error while backuping several Windows 2008R2 clients with error message :

 

WRN - can't open file: System State:\System Files\System Files (WIN32 -536805667: Unknown error)

 

Master server is Netbackup 7.1 on linux

Clients netbackup version is 7.5

Clients OS version is Windows 2008 R2

backup object is ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES

 

anyone have an idea

  • Glad to hear you got this one solved!

    On a slightly different note, I had a Windows 2008 R2 cluster that has a service that is clustered (Control-M scheduler).  As a clustered service, the service would follow (or roll over) the active node master.  (Whichever node was the master, this service would roll over to it.  Which means the other node doesn't have it, which would cause the backups to fail.)

    I found this script (I don't take credit for it) on the Microsoft Technet blogs which runs a powershell script that checks for any invalid or incorrect services (in the registry).  See attached.  (Posted it as a text file, will have to rename the file with a .ps1 extension.)  Also, you will probably have to set the PowerShell Execution Policy to unrestricted.  See second attachment for explanation.

    Thinking that this would have been helpful in your situation. (?)  I'm posting it here in case anybody else happens across this particular situation.
