SBS 2011 Server Add backup disk

Hello

Using the SBS Server 2011 standard backup utility, it doesn't seem to be a way to add an additional backup to the existing backup disk without adding new all disks at the same time, which translates into all current backups are deleted.
Is it possible to add an additional drive or replace a faulty, without erasing all current backups?
Thank you

  • iDRAC Express and SSO on a SBS 2011 Server

    Hello

    I have a Dell Poweredge R510 running Small Business Server 2011. Holders of SBS that only a single NETWORK adapter connected so my NETWORK adapter has an IP address for the server and a different IP address for the IDRAC Express card that is installed on the box on the same physical port.

    I'm trying to configure the server for SSO and it is unable to resolve the DNS server (which is, of course, the Small Business Server) and therefore ' behind' shared NIC port.

    I can't use the second NETWORK card, because this is not a configuration supported by SM.

  • How can I delete a file that my SBS 2011 server thinks is used by another process?

    We are moving the files from one disk to a larger drive.  I was able to move all the files in a directory (is there a lot), except a single file.  Our server thinks that this file is used by another process.  It is not.  I tried to use the cmd prompt to delete the file, but that did not work.  I tried theRmDir /S /Q, I tried the old del (name of file) I continue to get the message this file is in use by another process.  I have changed all of the security on this file, I unchecked the boxes for archiving.  Nothing works.


    Any advice?

  • Why the Windows Vista client gets the IP address of the Windows SBS 2011 as default DNS server?

    I use Windows Vista on a client computer that is connected to our Windows Server SBS 2011 server. I don't want to use the DNS server on the local server and the DNS addresses are automatically collected on our router. Every time I have to restart my computer or disconnect / reconnect the connection to the local network, the default DNS server address is set back to static and has the IP address of the local server, which makes it much slower DNS specifications.

    Can I disable this automatic update of address of DNS server somehow? In fact, I don't want to run a DNS server on the local server.

    Thank you to inform in advance!

    Unfortunately, I don't think that you will find the drivers for this operating system - even from the mfr websites.

    I just checked the Realtek Web site for the drivers for the ethernet controller, and there aren't any.

    They have Windows 2008 server, but not 2011.

  • BSOD drives when adding T110 ii with PERC H200 and SBS 2011 or Server 2008 R2-

    Bought the server next in November 2011

    PowerEdge T110 II

    ManufDate: 24/10/2011 market: 06/11/2011
    RAM: 16 GB (4 x 4) 1333 mhz UDIMM DualRanked
    Processor: Xeon E3-1270 3.4 Ghz, 8 M cache, Turbo, Quad Core/8 t (80W)
    RAID: Map Perc H200
    Drive: 2 x 600GB 15K RPM SCSI 6Gbps 3 .5in - RAID 1 Mirror SA
    SBS 2011 standard x 64 (works on Win 2008R2)

    SBS 2011 installed without a problem and the server works perfectly since December 2011.  Backups occurring twice per day to a USB attached hard drive external 1.5 to and OS patches applied on a monthly basis without problem.

    Company need more storage so it wanted to add 2 drives more (same spec as to purchase). I thought to try to turn the RAID 1 pair in RAID 10 set in order to keep the simple logical configuration (a single large logical volume which now seems to be 1.2 TB in size instead of 600 GB) - could get but not really someone to describe if it could be done for non-destructive way that requires not the complete system installation/restoration - so opted for just add the 2 new drives as a RAID extra 1 pair in order to not reach a stable, boot, partition operating system running on the current RAID 1 pair.

    Contracted for the Dell technician to come out to install 2 new readers, be clear that the service was not complete until I had an extra pair of RAID 1, appearing as a usable operating system.

    Technician arrived, installed readers, set the new RAID pair in the H200 configuration utility, rebooted the system and when the BONES began to load had a blue screen BSOD. Technician then disconnected drives newly associated (the level of the cables) to see if the system would boot - BSOD again on restart (both of now get us this "pleated" feel if you know what I mean). Then went into the raid configuration utility, removed the new raid 1 volume (which, by the way, is appeared above the one existing in the list - which is not very intuitive that one that has been added is Volume 1 and the existing old is Volume 2 in the utility). After the triple-checking that we had the right volume (it showed that 8% initialized over the other which was complete, as well as the corresponding drive port numbers), we have REMOVED the new volume (at this point I don't remember if we had replaced the cables for the readers to perform this action).

    At startup the system rebooted normally - we were all so relieved, don't talk over retries at the moment.

    Talk to Dell there seems to be a problem with the PERC H200 firmware or drivers. Has not affected the config initial of a single pair of RAID 1, however caused problems when you attempt to add another pair. Escalation of Dell support said that has happened several times with Windows 2008 (which comes from the SBS 2011) systems. They recommended that the firmware update and the PERC H200 card drivers.

    I turned to the technician and asked when we could plan the updates of the firmware and driver and told him that they wouldn't do that (not sure that I blame the poor guy, he was sweating bullets after the BSOD 2nd).  I explained that we have contracted for installation services which included ensuring that the pair of extra disk appeared also usable for the operating system and he said that I needed to talk to Dell that.

    You wanted to post information on issues with PERC H200 BSOD when adding disks on Win2008 (or SBS 2011).

    Waiting for response from Dell as to who will come on-site to complete the installation.

    Any info about the question to know if the update of the firmware/driver will solve the problem or if I can do with reliability a disk 2 RAID 1 for a 4 disk RAID 10 conversion without having to reinstall/restore system would be appreciated.

    There is NO migration route TO or FROM a nested RAID levels (10, 50, 60) on one of the PERC H series, so it goes from 1 to 10 of RAID is not an option (without backup/replace/create/restore).

    Firmware release notes do not indicate that a large part is added (although the "bugs" may be enough):

    -Addition of Support for > 2.2 to SAS hard drives

    -Small bug fixes

    I have not seen/heard talk of this problem (I don't have a H200), but it is possible that an update of the firmware can change the way it handles the new disks, newly configured RAID arrays, or even how it presents to the OS.

    Do you know if the technician checked to see if the original VD was marked as boot VD?

  • SBS 2011 - delete shadow copies directories and cannot get the backup to work

    Help, please...
    I just installed SBS 2011.
    When I saw the low disk space getting I profiled in the directory structure and noted that most of the space was taken by windows.oldxxx directories. So I deleted one.
    But it was a bad idea. Then I realized what I did and used the vssadmin console to delete shadow copies etc. and even disable the shadow and recreate them via the computer, shared management gui.

    But now, backups fail to complete... shadow copy operation failed with error Ox800423f0.
    In a bit of panic, I deleted the rest hoping he would rebuild itself... no luck.
    I don't really know what to do.

    Is there a way to start everything again.

    Please... Please, I'd really appreciate a solid direction.

    Thank you

    Hello cvcnow,

    I would suggest trying to perform a restore of the system, prior to installation of SBC 2011.  I do not know what operating system you use, but included some links for Vista and Windows 7.  If you are running Windows XP, please let us know what version and service pack.
