Error EC8F17B7 along with Error ED800012: (CRC Validation) is invalid & Error E4F3000E: Snapshot failure while using Volume Shadow Copy Service
Hi I am trying to backup a PC using SSR2013 (Desktop ed). I have created a custom backup job to run on schedule but the backup continuously fails. I find the following error in the event log afterwards: Error EC8F17B7: Cannot create recovery points for job: Drive Backup of (C:\), (D:\). Error E4F3000E: Snapshot failure while using Volume Shadow Copy Service. Please check application event log for VSS errors. Error code: VSS_E_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND (-2147212536). (UMI:V-281-3215-6071) After running the job manually, I find the following in the event log: Error EC8F17B7: Cannot create recovery points for job: Drive Backup of (C:\). Error ED800012: The internal structure of the recovery point file (CRC Validation) is invalid, damaged or unsupported. (UMI:V-281-3215-6071) I have been trying a few solutions found on the Symantec website regarding these errors, but have not received any good results. I have also not found a solution that relates to SSR2013... Thanks Zaid
Ghost freezes up at same place (2%) when restoring a disk
I am trying to restore a disk using Ghost, and Ghost freezes up after only 2% restored (on multiple tries). Here are the details. I am trying to restore the E: drive of a Fujitsu R610 computer running Windows XP Professional. I am using Ghost 11 (booted off of a CD drive), and reading a 36.9-GB *.GHO file that is on a Western Digital (WD) USB drive, plugged into the CPU tower. The Fujitsu internal disks and the WD USB disk are all NTFS disks. I am running Ghost with the command: ghost> ghost -forceusb Each time I run it, the Ghost menu just freezes after only 697-705 MB have been restored (which is only about 2% of the data to be restored). Once it freezes, none of the numbers change in the Ghost status menu (waiting over an hour), and there is no way to exit. (The Tab, Return, and Esc keys do nothing in this state.) i had to then force a power-down by holding in the power button. I was able to use Ghost 11 to successfully restore the C: drive and the D: drive. When I initially backed up the E: drive, I created two equivalent *.GHO files, by running ghost "to disk" twice. Both *.GHO files had identical byte sizes, and Ghost completed without errors, so the *.GHO files seem to be OK. When I tried to restore using the second *.GHO file, ghost froze at the same place (after 697-705 MB). The internal E: drive is 72 GB, so it has plenty of room. I did a SCSI boot and ran the SCSI disk check on the E: drive, and the internal disk passed. I even tried restoring the *.GHO file onto another Fusitsu R610 computer that had a 146 GB internal disk, an it froze at the same place (697-705 MB). This 36.9-GB *.GHO file is the largest *.GHO file that I ever tried to restore on a Fujitsu R610 computer using this version of Ghost. I am wondering if thete is some limit in the size of the *.GHO file when restoring with Ghost 11. Or maybe there is some limit that I am hitting due to the computer's RAM? Tomorrow I might try to get the computer to boot, and then copy the *.GHO file to the C: drive, so that I can run Ghost by reading and writing all from internal disks. Does anyone have any advice? (This is a very critical disk that I must restore.) Thanks.
Did Windows NT or XP work on new hardwares (core i3, i5, i7 ..etc)
I have windows NT workstation 4.0 sp6 and XP, it's already installed in very old hardware , so i want your opinion to take this windows safe and put it in new hardware like (core i3) by backup or clone or any thing else like we will do it. so can we do it like i said , because the old hardware (cpu)s are totally different from new (cpu)s. So my question is can i backup my old system by (Norton Ghost, Acronis backup, Symantec ..etc) and put it in new hardware or new PCs??? So can anybody tell me more detail and more discussion about this ,and what are the problems that i will face it ?? THANK YOUUUU
Excessive Backup Time
I am using SSR 2013 on a Win XP system. I have installed all the components that were specified prior to SSR 2013 installation (WIN & .Net 4). Installation went smoothly with no errors reported.However, when I try to perform the initial backup, what usually takes 15 - 20 minutes is now taking 5 hours. This is being backed up on a local hard drive, NOT over the intranet. I would welcome any and all suggestions on how to correct this issue. Thank you
Symantec management Agent 7.5 not initialized on client
I have Symantec System Recovery Management Solution 2013 R2 running on windows server 2012. I have manually installed the Management Agent on an XP SP3 desktop. However the status is showing as Not inialized, the icon in the system tray has a red line through a circle. This means that the Agent is unable to communicate with the central console. I'd appreciate any help in troubleshooting, diagnosing the problem. I have attempted several installs, using local system account and a Domain admin account on various machines but am not getting a consistent experience. ie. sometimes it communicates with the central management server sometimes not.How do I get rid of old Backup Jobs that were managed by a Symantec BESR Management Server that no longer exists?
My customer is using Symantec Backup Exec System Recovery V8.0.4 and the Server which was being used as the Central Management node has died. They also do not have the origianl storage node the centrally managed backup jobs were using. They will upgrade soon and in the mean time I have createdlocal Backup Jobs on the nodes to keep them regularly backing up. I want todelete, or at least disable, allof the old backup jobs. When I try to do this the BESR tells me "The backups job is controlled by a central management system. Contact your system administrator." I found Arcticle TECH67818 at http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH67818and I can find some of the files mention in Step 3 (.PQJ and sv2i) but not the RPAM Folder in Step 4 or the RPAMfile in Step 5. IsTECH67818 the best way to resolve the issue? I can provide Screenshots, etc if necessary. Regards Mike
Need help please! Need to reproduce/clone/migrate HDD (newbie)
Hi, Hoping somebody can provide some guidance. I have an old PC running XP home. This computer contains a lot of programs and info that can't be reproduced and the HDD is starting to die. I have another machine with a new and similar (IDE) HDD, running XP Pro. I would like to reproduce the old HDD on the new machine. I want the ability for the new HDD to behave exactly as the old, being the primary, stand-alone internal drive. Is that cloning? Migrating? Mirroring? I have no idea. Is this possible, and what is the best solution for making that happen. I would assume I need to take the old HDD out of the old machine, install in the new and use a particular software solution installed on the new machine (System Recovery?). Thanks in advance! I realize there are solutions - I've done some reading before posting - but am not sure the correct way to proceed and don't want to create further problems. K.
Upgrading Smaller HD to Larger HD
I'm using SSR 2013 version 11.0.2 boot CD to upgrade an 80GB hard disk to 250GB. SSR 2013 is not installed on the Windows XP PC. The (source) 80GB disk is partitioned into C (40GB) and D (40GB). I was able to boot off SSR2013 CD to backup the 80GB HD (both partitions) onto an external USB HD. I successfully restored the data to the larger, 250GB, hard disk. The problem is I end up with the same C (40GB) and D (40GB) partitions. There is a remaining 150+ GBs unpartitioned (and of course unused). How can I rearrange partitions during the restore? My goal is to have a fully functioning (bootable) 250GB HD which is partitioned into something like C (80GB) and D (170GB). Is that even possible?
