vDR (1.1) and backup on a network share

• Windows 7 backup network share, name of user and password set cached?

  One of the users in our area decided that it was recommended to configure backup in Windows 7 to save backups to a network share on a Windows 2008 R2 server.

  Not a bad idea, however, she got asked to enter his user name and password, which she did.

  Now the user keeps getting locked (even if it re - enter the user name and password.)

  If it starts a new backup, it seems that the user gets locked immidiatley.

  This used to happen from time to time even if we disabled the scheduled backup.

  We tried to run rundll32.exe keymgr.dll, KRShowKeyMgr to see if there was something stored we could withdraw, but we could not find anything related to the backup.

  Any input?

  (Now I don't know how this is supposed to work, but I don't think that it is a very good solution for companys strict password and passwords expire. It is perhaps mainly designed for the less complicated home networks?)

• Can a vDR device cause multiple backup destinations?

  I tried adding the shares network, adding that a different network share seems to remove the network share previously implemented at which the current backup operation is set.

  I want two shares of different network for a device with two jobs vDR, each backup operation goes to a different network share.

  How can I do this? 1.2.1 using latest version vDR.

  Alternatively, if each camera vDR can talk only to a single network share data store, I can set up another camera vDR.

  Thank you, Tom

  CIFS is not a recommended destination and can be much slower. If you want an accessible destination I would add a couple of NFS shares as network data warehouses. Then add a normal VMDK unit vDR. You can do several (more than 2) virtual machine backups but as I've mentioned before that you will incur the trouble to write the cbt file for each additional backup done.

  I'd do more simple a test you can against 2 or 3 small VMs. run multiple backups. Check the speed of the restoration. Decide if you can live with the speed of the restoration. I'm not sure that this is the most appropriate use of the vDR unit.

• Why Windows backup will not work on a network share?

  I am running Vista Home Premium and have a drive WD MyBookWorld NAS on a MS LAN.  OneCare used to do all my backups, never had any problem, but OneCare is no more.  I also have a NAS Iomega 2 TB hard drive and the problem is exactly the same for that too - XP and 7 can save on it, Vista can not.

  Windows backup works very well for readers SIN of my XP and 7 machines, but both the Vista, those who refuse.  I can drag and drop files from Vista to NAS, it's just the backup center who is the problem.  When I select the NAS drive for the backup on, he asks a user name and password.  My login to the Vista machine id does not work, and the administrator to the NAS password does not work.  The procedure fails with the 0x800706C6 message.  He refuses also backup on XP or 7 machines (with different messages).  He would be the backup on my other machine to Vista, but I do not have spare storage!
  I have read articles countless and tried to turn on/off control of accounts and mapping changes the network drive, without success - the error message, but does not go far.
  There is an industry on the internet trying to sell people PCHA (what is described as a Microsoft product), but I can't find any help on the Microsoft web site.  It is very bad, when the fault is so common.
  Help, please.  What should I do?

  Hello

  Windows Home Premium backup can't backup on a network location.
  So you will need to use an application of part 3. Professional, comprehensive and Enterprise edition
  backup to a network share.

  You can share files and use the 3rd backup XP to do or use Acronis or other
  party utilities.

  I prefer for the most of backup data and prefer to do it in a way that makes it easy to find
  and to restore a file as well as many.

  Replicator - free - excellent backup tool for backing up the data

• Unable to connect to the network share after the Microsoft Account

  I am running Windows 8 Pro and if I setup with a local account, I can access my server to NetApp files very well. As soon as I switch to a Microsoft Account, I can't connect to file shares. I get "the specified server cannot perform the requested operation."

  How can I use my Microsoft Account and still access the network share?

  Also, I have a laptop running Windows 8, connected to the same network that can access the share file very well. I already tried a "system refresh" and complete a reinstall.

  Any suggestion?

  If you map a drive to the share and select Connect using different credentials and enter your local account information it works?

  You can map a drive by:

  1. Right-click on computer.
  2. Select the network drive mapping...

• Windows 7: Windows Fax and Scan - can't get it to automatic backup to a network

  We use Windows Fax and Scan (Version 6.1 Build 7601: Service Pack 1)-this is the version included with our client for 32-bit Windows 7 Enterprise OS

  I just installed a scanner in a sleep laboratory, scanner works perfectly. There are several sleep technicians that will connect to a computer with the scanner (so short of several user profiles) and patient scan RXs.  Problem is that sleep manager wants the scans to record automatically in a central location for any technology connects in their analyses will record in the same place as everyone else.

  The key is the AUTOMATIC backup.

  This is so the news of background - at the heart of the question... it seems a feature that offers Windows Fax and Scan does not work.

  If you go in fax and scan, there is an option in the tools of-> Scan routing.  If you read on the functionality of its supposed to save AUTOMATICALLY in the network shown, its not to do so.

  So I check the box 'Save in the network folder' (don't know the exact wording)

  (I use xxx because I don't want to publicly share real location) \\xxx\xxxxx\xxxxx\Neuromuscular.

  This is 100% valid and share name of work - used for years many people save to it... Windows Fax and Scan says "sharing network not valid."

  If someone said just use \\server\share

  OK I create a folder on my computer, we'll call it Computer1 and name sharefolder. I share and give "everyone" access read/write... sharing is \\Computer1\Sharefolder.

  Plug in Windows Fax and Scan - it don't be complaint that it is a bad sharing more. So I think that a lot!

  I scan a test page - this isn't automatic registration to \\computer1\sharefolder.  I can come here, but that defeats the whole point of the analysis of routing.

  Sleep lab will be scanning hundreds of slips of Rx by day, management won't allow lost time by manual movement of the images to the save location.

  Any help is greatly appreciated. Got to be honest I'm a little irritated right now because I think its Microsoft as announced a feature in one of their applications is not working.

  Thank you

• Using VDR 1.2 to backup VMs to iSCSI

  VDR is supposed to be able to backup to iSCSI according to marketing materials.  I saw a post on 23/07/09 the same question.  RParker responded by saying that the answer is Yes and no. I would like to get a detailed response on the part of this answer Yes.

  I installed VDR and 3 TB iSCSI network device is now regarded by the host as a data store works.  The VDR Configuration tab only allows me to add a "network share".  What should I do to make the VDR 'See' the iSCSI VMs backup location as data store?  I have two servers Windows and SLES 10/11 servers.  I know that to be effective with deduplication each OS should have its own backup location.

  Other issues that are important:

  1 VDR will work with SLES - looks like only Red Hat and Ubuntu?  Does it matter if it's iSCSI or actions?

  2 dedup will work with VDR and iSCSI or only with stocks?

  If there are documents or links to other community responses that will help, just reply with the URL - no need to retype responses.  But please make sure they are clear and concise!

  Thank you very much

  Once all your guests can see the target iSCSI as a VMFS database, add a new virtual disk directly to the virtual appliance for data recovery (max 1 TB from the documents I've seen so far). When you start the DR unit, you should see the newly added disk and be able to format and mount. From my understanding network shares 'Add' to communicate with CIFS or NFS shares. iSCSI and FC target must be added as a data store to the level of the host.

  From my understanding VDR save upwards of any virtual computer either. Ideally, the virtual machine will be at the hardware level 7 and running the latest VMWare tools in order to get the most effective (dedup/tracking changes block) and the OS and APP quiecsing.

  I also believe, dedup works on any target (iSCSI, FC, NFS, CIFS) VDR.

  I'm still learning it and the documentation is not fabulous, above is my experience so far. I hope it helps.

  -added 9/2 10:56. I realized that CIFS is the only part that you can add to "add a network share." All other targets (FC, iSCSI, NFS) must be presented to the virtual appliance as a vmdk. The VMDK would reside in the data store of FC/iSCSI/NFS that you set up.

• full backup on a network drive

  Having problems by performing a full backup using my network ethernet WD MybookLive drive. I have successfully done a backup of files, but if I try a complete backup network drive doesn't appear in the menu "on a hard drive' option drop-down list. How can I solve this problem?
  I am running Vista Business.
  Pakal

  Thanks for your quick reply, but he has NOT answered my question. A full backup (that will save an image of the hard drive, including the operating system and registry entries) is not an option in the WD backup software.
  I was able to accomplish my task using wbadmin.exe. Found a thread very useful here:

  http://maximumpcguides.com/Windows-Vista/schedule-a-complete-PC-Backup/

  It is easier than that, it is basically a two-step process:
  (1) go to start-accessories and right click on "command prompt" by selecting "run as administrator
  "
  (2) type the following command (changing only the path to your shared drive): WBADMIN START BACKUP - backupTarget: f:-include: c: - allCritical - vssFull-quiet

  Wait a few hours and you're done. You can see the progress of the backup in terms of percentage.

• Why my network shares keep duplication in 'My Computer'? I have Y and Z mapped to 2 different actions. From one day to the next, I have B - Z mapped without my fault. What is going on?

  Hello! I can't understand what this does to my computer. It seems that something is automatically re-mapping my mapped network shares. How can I even begin to solve this?

  The last major change to my system were:
  1 - installed Norton Internet Security 2011 (anti-virus, etc.)
  2 - decided to play with indexing in the Panel but I didn't not add Y and Z to the index. I didn't change the file types that are indexed using this tab in the window and check each type of file in there
  3 installed MacDrive 8 so I could connect my Mac USB keys, etc. and use them locally on my PC
  Thanks in advance!

  It was Norton Ghost. Norton Ghost tried to access a directory in one of the actions, but I had changed the location of this directory. He just started mapping and re-mapping the same actions over and over again. Weird! Then I opened the ghost, clicked in the menu Tools, then Options, then changed to something else by default backup destination. It's strange, but it does. I had not used this in over a year backup destination and have resorted to a ghost. Phantom decided not to change the backup destination by default, when I deleted my old backup job 'task' and made a new who had another destination of backup. Weird.

  Thanks for your good help.

• Backup "to a network' grayed out for Windows Vista Home Basic Edition

  Dear Forum:

  Vista Home Basic SP - 2, Win XP Pro Service Pack 3 (signed on as "Administrator" on both machines)

  I'm trying to back up data residing on Vista Home Basic machine on a shared drive on Win XP Pro machine on an ethernet network.  When I run backup and restore Vista HB machine, backup "to a network' option remains greyed out.

  From now on, I can read and write in the public records of the Vista machine from the Win XP Pro machine and I can read and write to disk shared Win XP Pro machine from Vista HB machine.

  I apologize if the question has been discussed previously.  I appreciate all help to address this issue.

  -Kevin N

  I'm sorry, but Windows Vista Basic cannot save to a network location.  It can only back up to a local disk.

  Backup to a network location requires a more advanced version of Windows Vista.

• Sync, Iomega EZ media and backup Center Center.

  Hello

  I hope someone could advise me if Sync Center (Windows 7 64-bit), will work with an Iomega multimedia, EZ (1 TB) and backup center.

  Iomega multimedia, EZ (1 TB) and the backup center, appears on "My computer/network locations", with all the different readers (for example. Documents (\\IomegaEz) (t) and the music, movies, photos, backups and media shared, but does not appear in "Sync Center".

  I would really appreciate any help and advice to achieve this, I had the "Iomega, Quick-Protect" how works, but he lost, due to the change to Windows 7.

  I'm afraid that my computer skills are very poor, so please be gentle with the speeches of tech :)).

• Backup point-in-time with backup to network share files

  Hi all

  Oracle Database 11 g Release 11.2.0.3.0 - Production - on Windows 2008R2 64 bit

  I'm still getting hot RMAN backup and that you have configured our backup as follows:

  -Nightly rman backup to local drive (ORAFRA) hot and then copy the entire ORAFRA folder on a network share (which will be on the Strip).

  It adheres to RPO my company (recovery point objective) of 24 hours, because if my real server goes down I can restore in the previous 24 hours.

  HOWEVER, my question is more to be able to make the point-in-time recovery using disaster file sharing network. I guess I can make the point in time at any time prior to my backup complete (using SNA #)... but if I wanted to be able to do point-in-time recovery AFTER my full backup, how would that be possible?

  Example - full backup at 19:00 every night. The incident occurring at 23:00. words I can only return to 19:00 or before. How can I configure I can restore, say at 22:00, using network backup files?

  Thanks in advance!

  Yes.  You must use the syntax for using backup controlfile recovery and do a resetlogs.

  With rman, you might be able to avoid the resetlogs, depending on whether the point-in-time is your real goal (which could be the situation you've lost again them online - or maybe not so rman the controlfile and newspapers archived periodically).

  You might investigate databases in waiting, many places decides that they are worth the cost compared to the possible losses.  And even if you do not, the concepts of recovery help to understand these things.

  You can also consider, the purpose of backup is resumed and rman is to manage the recovery.  It is really important to understand the concepts, to the point you can do it in your sleep (literally nearby, here), but it is also important to understand the tools.

• vDR, damaged Images and Intergrity checks - Oh my!

  I don't know where to start with vDR, but I have worked with 1.1 and out the door I thought it worked pretty well. But then I started to notice a number of jobs that failed. I was also noticed that giving the device as much as 4 vCPUs, he would go for a considerable time for use at 100%. I moved to version 1.2 and created a new windows share to store backups. Every night a few backups have errors and the destination will be blocked until about a third of my restore points are marked for deletion and an integrity check is run.

  My hosts are ESX4 U1 with and all my guests are v7 and 2003, 32, and 64 with SP2.

  Are other experiences with vDR 1.x to pretty much the same as mine? I feel a sense of boredom confident in it like a backup strategy with the amount of attention that I'll have to give it. I don't really know where to begin troubleshooting, even if I was in the technical document 1.2.

  I appreciate any help you guys can give me.

  Some general guidelines on the use of CIFS are listed in the Administrator's Guide

  http://www.VMware.com/PDF/vdr_12_admin.PDF

  Also, check if you have a backup agent for another application installed on the host windows - that can cause unexpected behavior.
