Backing up Active Directory: V-79-57344-33928 - (AD LDS) database was not found.
Hello, We have this error from time to time, but it usually fixes itself without any end user intervention. However I am getting this error three nights in a row now on one of our domain controllers. This started happening on Wed morning, and continued through Friday morning. In all three instances the error message in the log is: Job ended: Thursday, October 29, 2009 at 1:18:54 AM Completed status: Failed Final error: 0xe0008488 - Access is denied. Final error category: Security Errors For additional information regarding this error refer to link V-79-57344-33928 Errors Click an error below to locate it in the job log Backup- \\dc1.domain.com\System?State V-79-57344-33928 - Unable to complete the operation for the selected resource using the specified options. The Active Directory, Active Directory Application Mode (ADAM) or Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS) database was not found. So I checked the selections and under the server in question, I can see System State > Active Directory > C:_WINDOWS_NTDS, and this is all checked off. I did a test Resource Credentials for everything in this backup and it all returnedsuccessfulso I'm at a loss. Under Settings > Microsoft Active Directory for this job properties we have all three boxes checked (GRC, Consistency Check, Continue if Consistency check fails.) Backup method is greyed out, but says Full - Back up entire Active Directory. We are using Symantec Backup Exec 12.5 for Windows Servers Media Server Version 12.5 Rev 2213 Administration Console 12.5 Rev 2213 Desktop and Laptop Option: Version 3.1 Rev. 3.41.32a Installed updates: Service Pack 2 Hotfixes: 324947 317436 325647 319242 324012 326004 323894 324011 Thanks for the help, we really do appreciate it!
Backup Exec 16 - Temporary VMware folders are not cleaned from the Backup Exec data directory
HI All, So we started with Backup Exec 14 few years back and I've updated to BE 16 last week with latest patch due to following issue when Symantec could not resolve it. Issue: When backup up VM's, there are lot of Temporary folders been created in folder C:\Program Files\Symantec\Backup Exec\Data. (Folders name include VM's name and date ), and number of folders been created keep growing everyday. Troubleshoot done: I've logged a call with Symantec and for a week they did troubleshooting and today an Advanced tech called me and advised that this is a known issue and only work-around is to delete these folders manually ? Now I have had the same above issue while we were on BE 15, with all the patches installed, hence why I quickly upgraded to BE 16 to see if that resolve the issue. Symantec advance support tech directed me to this article ( https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.000023219 ) which is according to the article was an issue on BE 2014. So I don't believe that Backup Exec 16 will have this now, will it ? And I can't accept an answer been deleting these folder manually every day as a solution. Does anyone experienced this kind of issue ? CheersDisk is offline, Physical volulme library drive is not available
Dear Community, I have an intermittent problem whereby my backup jobs will fail on certain days with the error: - Media Error: The disk is offline and then followed by - [Job Name] - The job failed with the following error: Physical Volume Drive not available. Edit: Do take note of the dates. Backups are failing randomly on certain days. However, no action is performed on the problem and the backup would run fine on the next schedule. I am backing up to a local drive. Please refer to the attached screenshots.
