BE 2014 SP2 Hyper-V Backup Failed to Mount one or more virtual disk images RDX drive
Hi, We are having an issue at a number of our customers sites that backup Hyper-V VM's using Backup Exec 2014 SP1 & SP2 to RDX Cartridges. The backups complete with exceptions that the virtual disk images cannot be mounted. This stops the ability of being able to perform a GRT restore of individual items from the backup. The odd thing is that the virtual disk images can be manully mounted by windows directly from the RDX cartridge. I have attached a debug log from one of the machines for reference, and have also found the following post on the Symantec forum: http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH211717 http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH223818 The problem in the log looks to be as follows: [8664] 2014-12-20T04:28:05.666 [engidrapi] -

Error mounting disks (0xe0009741) However as stated above, we can manually mount the vhdx file directly from the RDX cartridge and copy any files needed to be restored this way. We are not however able to restore individual mail items from and exchange store, without starting up a seperate virtual machine with the VHD attached. Does anyone else have the same issue? Any idea's on how to resolve this? So far we have 3 customers with the same issue, all using BE 2014 backing up Hyper-V VM's on Server 2012 R2. Thanks Alex
Backup Exec 15 after Update no communication with vCenter - all AVVI jobs fail
After updateing our customers BEX 2014 environment (physical an virtual) all jobs defined as RAWS with transport via LAN are running smoothly. Accidently all jobs using the AVVI with vCenter are stopped and second the local Remote Agent for Windows running at the backup server is stopped at the moment tto snap the VMware VMDKs. The log said "communication error". The vCenter is reachable like before and running well. First error is V-79-57344-65304 followed by V-79-57344-3844 because the local agent is stopped. What is the cause? Creating a new trusted link betwenn backup server and vCenter does not help. We use Windows Server 2012 R2 and vSphere 5.5.Failure backing up to NAS
Am running Backup Exec 2012 (SP4 + hotfix 217347) small business edition on Windows Small Business Server 2011 Standard. When attempting a full SDR backup to a 3TB HDD on a LS220D480 NAS it is getting to about 16.2GB and apparently whilst still working on the exchange information store mailbox database. It then just starts creating two 2KB files every minute whilst the backup rate dwindles down to nothing and just seems to hang there until I cancel the backup. However: a) if I run the same backup to tape or to a 1TB USB HDD (as opposed to the NAS HDD) it completes succesfuly, b) If I run the same backup but exclude the Microsoft Information Store to the same NAS HDD it completes succesfully, c) If I run the same backup to the same NAS HDD, including the Microsoft Information Store but without enabling the GRT option it still fails. I've tried reformatting the NAS HDD but am struggling to make any sense of this. Have seen lots of chatter about 2KB files being created and possible connections to GRT ... but not found any answers for this case .... can't fathom why ok to tape and another drive but not ok to the NAS (until I exclude the information store from the backup). Thanks Rob
GRT Backup Sharepoint 2010,2013, Exchange 2007,2010
Hi All, I'm having problems with GRT backups of Exchange and Sharepoint. After major issues with BackupExec 2014, which i've been able to resolve (update with latest hotfix), this is the only issue left. What happens is that GRT jobs get stuck at Active: 0 of 4 (in case of Exchange its either 0 of 3 or 2 of 3) backup selections processed for GRT - Backgroud Process. If i disable GRT, backups run fine. The SMLog (Sharepoint backup, haven't had time yet to check Exchange) is flooded with: 5 BECAT 4360 22.7.2015 14:32:56 4572 [5] [CatServerVSNListener::OnVSN::196] VSNType(1060), verbHint(102), flagHint(0) 6 BEREMOTE 3968 22.7.2015 14:33:00 5252 [fsys\shared] - [memento::OpenRead] - \\?\UNC\tpqnap\backup\B2D01\IMG000020\pdi_state.txt 7 BEREMOTE 3968 22.7.2015 14:33:00 5252 [fsys\shared] - [memento::OpenRead] - \\?\UNC\tpqnap\backup\B2D01\IMG000021\pdi_state.txt 8 BEREMOTE 3968 22.7.2015 14:33:00 5252 [fsys\shared] - [memento::OpenRead] - \\?\UNC\tpqnap\backup\B2D01\IMG000022\pdi_state.txt 9 BEREMOTE 3968 22.7.2015 14:33:00 5252 [fsys\shared] - [memento::OpenRead] - \\?\UNC\tpqnap\backup\B2D01\IMG000023\pdi_state.txt In the pdi_state.txt i get sPDI_RECOVERY_STATE=QUEUED and after i cancel the job i get sPDI_RECOVERY_STATE=ABORTED and iPDI_RECOVERY_RESULT=0xe0000f41:ffffffff I've already rebooted all the servers, updated agents on servers, recreated the jobs, moved job from dedup store to B2D store...nothing seems to be helping. Anyone else had this issue? BR
Backup Exec GRT Not Working Correctly
Hello, I'm trying to backup SQL databases on a Windows 2012 R2 server box that is running on VMware 5.1 but run into job exceptions every time. The exceptions are below. The VM itself is backed up so I can do full disk restores but none of the SQL databases are backing up. Credentials test successfully on this box so I'm not sure what else to check to resolve this issue, any help would be greatly appreciated. V-79-57344-38727 - Backup Exec was unable to collect the necessary metadata for virtual machine to restore individual application items. You cannot perform GRT-enabled restores of application data from this backup.
