Event 6796 and 13360

[Zenworks2001]

Hi all,

One of our Vault site presents events 6796 and 13360 during (scheduled) archiving process. I've collected these events on attachment. I've tried to find some informations concerning these events but witohut success.

Many tx in advance.

OK so what it sounds like is that its an issue when trying to do Moved Items (update shortcut locations), it is most likely coming across shortcuts that are orphaned or don't belong to the site

Do you have the following event per chance?

Type: Warning
Date: 05/26/2011
Time: 04:00:00 AM
Event: 2270
Source: Enterprise Vault
Category: Archive Task
User: N/A
Computer: yourEVServer
Description:
A queued operation exceeded the retry count and has been discarded

m_pIBackgroundArchivingAgent->ProcessMovedItemsInFolder(ExchangeMailboxDn = "/o=myOrg/ou=myOU/cn=Recipients/cn=myUser",
ArchiveID = "1643E729FF25CFB4C81F9558F55B2248D1110000myEVSite",
ArchiveFolderId = "1C505EEF2EFCF7C4A9B375B4F822473511110000myEVSite",
FolderRetCat = "1877FE4D91B08D3458FDF2AF1643886231110000myEVSite",
SourceFolderID = "102B9647D83955741BC60261FEC29A8331110000myEVSite",
FolderPathName = "?Inbox"
ItemRequestXML = "some XML")
HRESULT: 0x80040E2F

If you do, would it be possible for you to do the following

1. RDP to your EV Server as the EVAdmin
2. Open the Vault Admin Console
3. hold CTRL-SHIFT and right click "Archives" and select "Find Archive or Folder"
4. In the dialog that pops up , paste the Archive ID that was posted in the 2270 event
5. When you hit Find, you will then see the user it is complaining about, make a note of the user
6. Open a Command Prompt and CD to your \Program Files\Enterprise Vault\ directory
7. Type "Dtrace" and press Enter
8. Type "Set ArchiveTask v" and press Enter
9. Type "Set StorageOnlienOpns v" and press Enter
10. Type "log C:\13360Errors.txt" and press Enter
11. Minimize the command prompt
12. Go to your Vault Admin Console
13. Browse to your Exchange Archiving tasks on this EV Server
14. Right click your Exchange Archiving Task
15. Select "Run Now" and choose Shortcut Processing only
16. Select the user to run against as the user we found from step #5
17. Let the Processing run and await for it to post errors
18. After its finished, go back to the Command prompt and type "Exit" to exit the dtrace
19. Zip up the DTrace and post here if you can

Otherwise you may wish to open a case with symantec to determine where this is coming from
Again i've seen it come from orphaned shortcuts or shortcuts which don't belong to the site (i.e. someone used to work at another company that had EV and copied their old PST in to their mailbox, or they were part of the EV Trial and had shortcuts left over and then when you rolled out fully you had different sites etc)

I know it sounds outlandish but i've seen it happen quite a number of times now

Hi,

Your approach is correct: the 2 events indicated above are coming with event 2270.

Event 2270 description:

------

A queued operation exceeded the retry count and has been discarded

m_pIBackgroundArchivingAgent->ProcessMovedItemsInFolder2(ExchangeMailboxDn = "/xxx)

 ArchiveID = xxx

ArchiveFolderID = xxx

FolderRetCat = xxx

SourceFolderID = "ID",

FolderPathName = "?EnterpriseVault?BusinessLongTerm?Inbox",

CompressedItemRequestXML = "some XML")

HRESULT: 0x80040E2F

------

Following your indication, I've identified the 3 users based on ArchiveId, run a shortcut processing and (re)generated the errors. I've also generated a dtrace. I'll not post this log because of confidentiality but I clearly see errors indicating that some shortcut call an old Vault DNS alias we have disengaged in the past. This disengagment was done by exporting archives to PST and reimporting them to the Vault site we're talking about.

Now, solution wouldn't be to (re)create a record with old Vault DNS alias? (deleted from DNS after moving archive as indicated above and disengagment of old Vault server). What's the impact of creating this alias.

Hi all,

I finally exported Vault of concerned users to PST and reimport it. All is Ok now.
