Hi,

 

I'm wondering if anyone can help, I'm seeing a strange issue in a customer's environment.

 

Basically EVSVR is reporting that they have sevre data loss in a number fo vault store partitions. After digging deeper all of the 'missing' files have been collected and are present in the CAB files, but EV still doesn't see them.

I would attach the EVSVR llogs but they are 1.1GB and 460MB respectfully.

I've run Repair DatabaseRefs and Linkages EVSVR operations but haven't had any joy in resolving the issue. The interesting thing I've found is that running a dumpsaveset gives me the following;

After some thought I copied the DVS file back to it's original location, updated the Saveset entry accordingly and hey presto it works,

Changing SQL back to point at the CAB file also works providing I leave the DVS in the original location as well.

 

If this was just a matter of a couple of items I'd grudingly do resolve it this way but we're talking over 500K items and I'd rather get it resolved this century.

 

If anyone's got any suggestions I'm all ears!

 

It's EV 10 SP1 BTW.....

 

Many Thanks

Hi,

 

The CAB files have always been there. Through some very painful investigations using EVSVR I've found a list of the affected CAB files and DVS files, then using SQL have generated the folder path for each item and moved them back using Powershell.

 

I didn't need to make any changes in the Saveset table, it all started working normally :)

Hi Jake, 

Collected DVS files are recalled as .ARCHDVS files. This should also happen when you do the DumpSaveset.

It seems that your Vault Store records are intact. If EV can find the collection and the CAB, it seems to be failing when the file is being extracted as an .ARCHDVS File.

Did you exclude the ARCH* extensions from your anti-virus, or can you think of anything else that could prevent the extraction from the CAB file (available space?)

Hi,

 

There's plenty of space on the drive and I don't think that the AV solution is interfering, it looks like there's an issue with the Cab file index so what I really need is a way to either repair them or uncollect.

Thanks

Hi Jake,

Is the partition configured for migration? I suppose not since you can find the .CAB files.

Was the .CAB files restored from backup?

 

To test your theory of corrupt .CAB file, you could run the following from a command prompt:

C:\Windows\System32\expand.exe <FULL PATH TO .CAB FILE> -D

The windows expand utility is usually located in the folder, but could be somewhere else depending on your OS

The -D option only list the files in the CAB file and does not extract them.

Please see:

Expand Utility

If this utility cannot list the files in the .CAB file, then you would know that the .CAB file is corrupt.
