• Backup system state data

  I want the XP Home System State backup as the data I plan on the rationalization of the registry and of course need the backup in the case where I live.

  Microsoft has a backup program on the XP home CD.

  Toshiba has a recovery disk so I don't have the CD.

  I don't think I needed the backup program that I have another backup program, but I was wrong. To back up the system state data, my backup program requires that I have copy their help:

  To back up the locking system files under Windows NT4, 2000 and XP systems dfg backup XP uses components of NT backup, which is part of the operating system. In Windows XP Home Edition that the NT backup is not installed by default, so you must install it manually. The NT backup is located on the Windows XP CD in the \VALUEADD\MSFT\NTBACKUP directory. If you need to restore files in the System State, you will need to use the NT backup after you have it extracted from Zip archive.

  So it seems the only way to save the complete registry and the boot files is to install Microsoft backup program.

  It's on the the recovery Toshiba Satellite 2450 this disc anyone know? It is not the disk tools.

  I can't find anything on a backup program listed here.

  Appreciate any help.

  Hi TW,.

  Check if you have a "VALUEADD" folder installed on your HARD drive. Some OEM installations actually install to the hard drive. You should find the Microsoft Backup utility in there.

• the system state data can be contained in 2 different folders, e.g. Windows or host1

  Hello

  Recently, my computer was able to start and I had neglected to backup my data. While dealing with the Windows Recovery Console, I inadvertently added a folder called host1 to the system. I tried to replace and remove this folder, but could not. Currently, I'm trying to back up my data to the system state by using the Windows backup utility. What's weird, is that in the log file, "Host1" is listed under the file saved to the system state data. Previously, these data were in the "Windows" folder The content of two files seems to be identical. I need to get rid of unnecessary duplication in my system. The backup file size was more than 200 gb. Phew!

  Thank you

  Before deleting copy just the system folder windows.old + System32 files (these files contain most of the settings and drivers. (In the case where in the future you need a driver for a printer you have you can always point windows to find in these files) in a new folder on the C drive and delete the rest in the windows.old and the folder windows.old himself. You could rename the Windows folder and not the host1 because XP uses host1 as its new folder. This is where the operating system boots from. The old windows folder contains more data due to past use and all programs that you have installed since you had the PC.

  All the best

• On the Test computer system state restore

  Hello

  We have windows server 8R2 (hostname APWINDOWS8R2519). The server has many applications (Ms office, MCAFEE, Ms Sql Server, Oracle etc.) that are installed in the drive D, drive E and F by car.

  We intend to make the recovery test for this server on the TEST computer.

  We have a same Measurements (including ip address, host name, memory) as production of the machine machine.

  My question is when to apply the System State? If we must first restore all applications of the D, E and F drive on the machine then start applying the system on the machine state

  or

  First apply the System State, and then restore all application folders in the drive D, E and F.

  Which is the correct method.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  First of all, welcome to the Forum OR!

  You can find a detailed guide of your PXI system with your real-time system configuration here:

  Initial setup of the PXI real-time and install the http://www.ni.com/white-paper/12871/en/ software system

  This screen your see is just a console that returns events on the pxi system. In your case, it indicates your pxi is not configured.

  You cannot create events of keyboard and mouse on a system in real-time because it would mean that your system is not more deterministic.

  For this purpose all the configuration and programming is done on a host pc, which connects to the pxi and deploys your programming.

• Windows 8.1 backup image

  Create an image backup of my upgrade by using the +-allcritical + WBADMIN START BACKUP parameter generates a low-memory error code (+ 0x8004231f +).
  This command works without the subcommand of the system state.

  Is the small partition system EFI does not having enough free space, and if so is it a round work?

  Windows disk management, there is no option to extend the partition of 260 MB.

  In my opinion this problem is not related to the laptop but the system.
  Then, probably, you should take a look in Microsoft Support community to get more details, information on possible solutions.

• Windows Server backup - Reporting failure, but creates a backup file

  Currently have a Server 2008 R2 running. Also runs Hyper-V with 3 than VMS. VM can be found on the D drive, so I have given up trying to save with C, since it was time.

  I don't have a setup of daily - just VSS full backup disk Local (c), no bare metal recovery or backup the system state. It's backup on a network drive shared on a different server.

  Daily backup status comes back as having failed. However when I go to the destination that the backup must be going, I see a 280 GB VHD file, which is the size expected to see.

  The error reported in the Windows Server backup is "one of the backup files could not be created. "Error: the parameter is incorrect".

  WSB is horrible to provide crash reports useful on what is the real problem.

  Anyone have any idea why it's create a large file of backup, but reported as having failed with this error?

• I have a prompt to install Strongvault through Norton Utilities online backup.

  Software Strongvault always try to install "Strongvault online backup" whenever I try to open Norton Utilities 15. I have to click Cancel several times to stop attempts to install strongvault.

  Suddenly, I found this program of "strongvault" on my computer after installing "VLC Media Player".  It caused havoc.  I now get error messages when I try to open important programs for businesses in mmy.  It has also caused a fatal error and stopped "SOS work email.  Anyone know what I can do about it.  Why not 'Strongvault' or fief, or whoever they are have a large box, asking you if you want to install their program before allowing him to just try to commandeer your system? Some programs now tell me the data is not found and has been moved to another location.  I believe that this can have consequences legal, since misplaced information is propriety and confidential... I need immediate help before you speak of this mess legal channels.  I hope that the folks at microsoft can help!

  We are not doing something that would cause files from other programs to be moved or deleted. It seems that the messages you see reference to the Strongvault uninstall program is not found, which is part of the installer of Windows other glitch reported in this thread. First use app FixIt from Microsoft to try to resolve the problem:

  If this does not work, user our installer which follows a link to complete uninstallation:

  http://stronghold.com/app/Setup_SV.msi

  Depending on your system state, when you run it, you need to get the option Uninstall or it'll reinstall. If the latter, run again after reinstallation is complete and you will have the option to uninstall. Whatever it is, make sure you don't not right-click anywhere during uninstall!

  If you're still having problems after trying these two, please contact me directly to the craig [at] stronghold.com with as many details as possible about what you are experiencing.

• X100e backup/restore

  Hi, I just bought a x100e with preinstalled Windows 7 and wonder how to make a system backup/restore correctly. I need to install Ubuntu in a few days and create/edit a few partitions that exist (I guess that this will replace mbr) and I want to be able to restore the initial state of the system. So, what's the best "workflow" to save/restore, System State or reset to factory settings x100e (witch is probably most interesting for me) in my dulling?

  Hi and welcome to the forum!

  You can create discs of recovery on a USB drive or burn it to DVD by attaching an external optical drive, old method to see this:- http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/X-Series-ThinkPad-Laptops/Creating-x100e-recovery-media-on-USB-stick/ta-...

  With recovery discs, you can restore your system to factory settings any time you want.

  This before installing Linux, otherwise you will not be able to once you have installed Ubuntu.

  I hope this helps.

• Backup VDR of Active Directory virtual computers

  I was wondering if many use VDR to save their VMs AD?  I would it would make the recovery of VM all obviously faster.  I always make backups of the System State and such, but I was wondering if anyone has tested an AD VM host backup and restore with VDR?  Any thoughts/concerns/problems with this?

  Hello.

  Personally, I prefer simply to take system state backups and not more. If I need to do a restore, I just deploy a new virtual machine from the model and then use the system to restore State.

  It might be interesting to read Microsoft "[backup and restore considerations for virtualized domain controllers | ]. "[http://technet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd363545%28WS.10%29.aspx]" document TechNet for Windows 2008.  It seems to apply only to Windows Virtualization.  For Windows 2003, see kb 875495.  The thing to keep in mind is supported from Microsoft.  You do not want to perform a restore DC not supported and then know you will not be supported by Microsoft with it.

  Good luck!

• ESX 3.5 backup Suggestions / Help

  Hi all!  It's been a while since I've visited these forums but recently I tried to get a plan to back up our virtual environment.  First, here's a quick description of our virtual environment:

  3 Dell PowerEdge 2950 with 32 GB of RAM each, NIC 6 (2 on board, 2 dual port cards), each two-processor Xeon 5345

  1 Dell / Equallogic PS400E SAN

  ESX 3.5 UPD 1 Standard x 3, VC 2.5 Foundation (non-virtual)

  Here are our current backup environment / method:

  CA Arcserv 12 backup each VM (local disk + the system state) as a backup of 'level of files', something in the neighborhood of 2 TB - not a backup complete VM

  I've suggested that we do was buy VMware Agent for Arcserv of CA software and a basic backup unit (unit 3 TB ExaGrid) disk which should be installed and configured by our SAN provider.  The idea was to start to full backup of virtual machine alongside our backup process normal precautionary measure for the updates of the firmware of the SAN, semi DR, software ESX upgrades / updates, etc.  Essentially to give me peace of mind and a way out of what I consider to be a 'disaster' that is losing the San or a firmware update gone bad.  Due to the cost of the solution, the idea was struck down.  Now, I'm first trying to find an "cheaper" alternative for giving me some peace of mind.

  Some of the ideas I had would be to buy a NAS cheap with sufficient capacity to allow me to get a complete virtual machine backup before making any changes I need to do but I'm not sure what all I would need to be able to do something like that.  Would I need to the Arcserv for VMware agent or something like that (maybe EsXpress or vRanger Pro etc connection) or I could shoot with just VCB?  Would it be possible to not even use VCB and up volume on the SAN, and copy the files or do I need something like VCB to put the files in the correct state?  Any thoughts would be appreciated, thanks!

  When VCB puts these offline files is the virtual machine offline, the duration of the backup?

  N ° snapshot functionality has been designed so that you don't have to take the virtual machine offline.

  With Arcserv (or VCB) to put the files somewhere I think it would be unwise to put them back on the SAN then maybe local storage (DAS) or storage (NAS) networking maybe?

  Thaat's what we do as well.  We are valuable SAN performance real estate for the archives, which would be a waste, so we use the SATA storage premises.

  Or are you saying that acrserv should be able to recover the files from the SAN to bring broadband (or other)?

  Probably better to stage, the first save, perhaps of local disk, a NAS or Windows file store.  Use your backup software to process these files as you would for a physical server, and then move those band.  You can probably go live on tape, but if the backup fails, you are wasting time / Ribbon, featuring it it will be easier to manage also.
