Guest OS Backup falied, we suspect it is casued by VMDK, please help!

failure of the backup of Guest OS 5 on 20 with VCB on an ESX Server, but the guest operating system can work normally.

We tried to use BESR, VDR, vRange, software backup etc to save but to no avail, even fail to backup use Ghost or Windows Image backup in the guest operating system or Clone in the CR.

There is NO Message error in VC.  We have not found the cause of the origin of the failure, but I suspect that it is caused by VMDK.  Can someone help me find the solution to fix it?  We tried everything we could think.

Thanks a lot for your help!

Hello
safe return of the Japan?

Yes - I found something in this vmdk string that I don't like.
There is a certain inconsistency - the last VMDK do not have references to the VMDK ctk - something that has passed after that snapshot 000025 can have gone wrong.
Also some backup tools will not like that both disks have a different amount of snapshots.

I disable automated tasks backup for a short duration when you - clean all the vmdk, vmx-settinmgs to check and delete snapshots.

When this is done, I think you can return to normal.

As I understand it the files you have posted before are outdated now - if you want back me the news post data or let me watch directly

  • (the backup completed, but some files were skipped--(0 x 80070003)) & (0 x 80070002))-Please help!

    Hey everybody...

    I tried for two days back my 64 bit Windows 7 system.  Whenever I do, I get the following messages saying the "backup completed, but some files were skipped.  (I get two error codes (0 x 80070003)) & (0 x 80070002))

    This is the description that is displayed in Notepad after the backup is performed:

    Backup has encountered a problem during backup of the file C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\iJamez\Pics & Vids\Internal storage. Error: (System does not find the specified path. (0 x 80070003))

    Backup has encountered a problem during backup of the file C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\iJamez\Pics & Vids. Error: (System does not find the specified path. (0 x 80070003))

    Backup has encountered a problem during backup of the C:\Users\James\Desktop\Contacts file. Error: (the system cannot find the specified file. (0 x 80070002))

    the iJamez folder is located under the folder James which is on my desk at the top of the page, that I him have also stored in my external hard drive... the order goes like this:

    PC: C:\James/iJamez/Pics & Vids

    Outer: D:\iJamez/Pics & Vids

    + Pictures and videos is I have sync it with my iPhone.

    The last line of the error is in what regards the Contacts... I installed Outlook Express and I noticed that the Contacts folder has been installed on my desktop and I deleted because I don't need.

    Is someone can you please help me understand this... It makes me crazy!

    Thanks in advance to all!

    I SOLVED THE PROBLEM...

    What I had to do, is create a folder named "iJamez" inside:

    C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile

    Once I created the folder iJamez inside (see above) I then created another folder inside iJamez called Pics & Vids. Once all of these files, I did my backup worked fine. He didn't ignore any files at all.

    But of course, my only question is, why the hell did I have to create these folders in the first place? Why in the world the Vids & photos that I sync with my iPhone would have something to do with a full backup?

    I do not understand why, I am just happy it worked.

    Can anyone shed some light on why this took place?

    Thank you.

    I'm really sorry. Given all that's left is 4 k, is there anything I can do to recreate the 37Mb of your site.

    At the file never stored in a folder of synchronized cloud (i.e. Dropbox, Cloud Files, iDrive, OneDrive, GoogleDrive creative folder, etc.)? If so, these services provide generally access to all previous versions for a certain number of days, so you can recover the file in this way...

  • ESX4i guest VM-backup of files

    We have autonomous ESX4i host with multiple virtual machines installed on each.   We need to make a backup of the files of the VM to a backup location because we don't have any backup of virtual machine applications.   We are still reviewing options, but should secure our VMs in the meantime.   I think that our best course of action is to take a backup of standard file on a server for files in the following folders:

    VMDK files including the flat file

    VMX files

    I don't think that all the other files are needed.   Is this fair?   In this way, if a virtual machine goes wrong we can recreate the virtual machine and use the VMDK and file VMX to bring them back.

    All the other things I should consider?

    Although technically you could recreate the virtual machine only with the vmdk itself, you are better off using a backup solution to do.

    given that you don't mention vsphere here are options

    ghettoVCB.sh

    http://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-8760 :

    Veeam backup free

    Use vmware converter to 'convert' vms

    If the machines are virtual critiical, spend a little $ for peace of mind. but the above should do the job.

  • Advance Mode XP Backup, twice after backup is complete, cannot create an ASR file because I did not insert a floppy disk. I insert a disc in my drive, please help me how do.

    Running a WindowsXP Professional, I tried twice to my systems backup using the Backup Wizard. Twice tried to use advanced mode to save. I have 3 choices, first Assistant backup, Second, Assistant food and finally Assistant recovery. I clicked on the wizard of recovery of automatic systems, the wizard to create a backup of the two parts of my systems, a diskette that has my systems settings and other media that contains a backup of my score of local systems.

    Twice I tried to insert a disc into my drive and started to click on column e ASR. so to start the long process of backing up my files, after almost two hours later my backup files already completed, a screen appears saying: this isn't in my Wizard floppy drive cannot create ASR inside. He needs a disc with an ASR info, more data backup systems to restore my computer if it meets a major systems failure. My problem is, how to set the disk to my systems before starting settings to back up my files and data with the systems Advance Recovery Wizard first. Thank you.
