Backup 3.1.2 Fails To Backup

I have seen others posting same issues.  Just wanted to post that I am having the same issue and am anxious to find a solution.  That is....
Just upgraded to Leopard on dual G5 2.0Ghz.  Ran software update without any updates. (I'm all up to date)  Ran Backup plan for an external drive to another external drive - no issues.  Tried to run plan that backups my home folder and also app setting, mail, etc.  Fails every time.  I deleted the plan and created a new one and it fails as well.
Until I hear of an upgrade solution or suggestion I will just drag and drop my entire home folder to an external for the time being.  Or perhaps I will explore Time Machine and see if it will backup all I need as effectively as Backup.

I'm also having problems with Backup 3.1.2 + Leopard and unfortunately can't use Time Machine as don't have an external hard drive.
My backup used to work fine before Leopard, but now uploads and then fails with the following message appearing in Console:
The catalog for the backup could not be added to the backup library.
End backup at 2008-04-27 13:28:23.141 +0100
Any help would be appreciated because like everyone else I'm now paying £79 just for my e-mail address!

  • ICloud backup iOS 8.1 - failing to backup

    Since updating iOS to 8.1 yesterday, my iPhone 6 and my iPad retina mini are both failing to make iCloud backups. Either manually or automatically when powered and idle. I have loads of space on iCloud so that is not the issue. Tried deleting existing iCloud backups, tried logging in and out of iCloud account, restarting devices etc. Still not working 12 hours later. Anyone else?

    There is a bug with 8.1 and I think I know what it is. Something in iOS 8.1 is double counting your space each time you try to backup, including the backup that hasn't yet occurred. Either that, or it is a bug/ploy from Apple to make a lot of people buy storage upgrades so we can backup.
    For example, I have two devices backed up using 4.5GB of space, an iPad at 1.2GB and an iPhone 6 at 3.3GB. It said the size of my next backup for my iPhone6 is 3.3GB (no bigger than my prior backup). It says in Settings/iCloud/Manage Storage that I need an additional 2.8GB of space to do my backup, that I only have 458MB of space and is offering for me to upgrade my storage plan. What that means is that my next backup is not taking into account that most of the data in the prior backups is the same data.
    So here's the additional bug - as a workaround I tried deleting my last backup and turning off iCloud backups on my iPhone. I then turned back on my iCloud backup again and it shows my current backup as 3.3GB (but not completed), and says I need an additional 2.8GB in order for it to backup and to upgrade my plan. It's counting my backup that I haven't been able to complete as used storage and still shows I only have 458MB available. This all started with iOS 8.1 after i installed it last night and my backups just started failing.
    Based on these calculations, on iOS 8.1 if you have only one device (total) with more than 2.5GB backing up, you will never be able to use the 5GB free storage. You have to have enough space for your prior backup (including the one you're trying to do), and an entirely new backup on top of that. The extra fun bug is that it's even counting your current incomplete backup as already used iCloud space.

  • Windows Server 2012 - Backup failing with Exchange - The application will not be available for recovery from this backup. the consistency check failed

    Hi
    We have a Windows 2012 server with Exchange 2013, all is working fine except now i am getting issues with the backup.
    'Exchange - The application will not be available for recovery from this backup. the consistency check failed for the component Microsoft Exchange Server'
    I have checked the database all is fine, i have created a new db and move all mailbox;s over and then removed the old db, i have enabled circular logging and then disabled it, it seems no matter what i do i cannot get a full backup!
    i did have to restore the server once and the backups still worked for about 4 days after that and then stopped, i have also tried to remove and re add the backup role!
    i am stumped, any advice would be great!

    Hi
    Ok, i created a test db and tried to back it up right away, it failed, i did not add any mailbox's to it either. i got quite a few events in the windows logs, as well as the same event above i got the following:

  • Time Machine fails to backup home space.

    Summary:
    I've been having problems with Time Machine since I enabled it. For some reason it refuses to backup any file in my account (/Users/ritchiem/). I have spoken with the an Apple 'Genius' and they were dumb founded. So I ask here in the hope that someone has had this issue occur and know what the cause is and how to fix it. I'm not really looking for work-arounds, though I will cover that later.
    *Problem Description:*
    A new 500GB external drive was erased and formatted HFS+ Journaled.
    TimeMachine was then opened and enabled on this drive.
    Back Up Now was selected and left to run assuming it would take a while on the 500Gb internal drive that had a around 200Gi-250Gi of used.
    It ran successfully.
    When entering TimeMachine, history shows the top level drive and navigating down the Users folder shows only my 'test' user account. My user account 'ritchiem' is not listed.
    There was no error presented from Time Machine an the System Preferences panel reported it was successful.
    Console.logs shows that backup was performed successfully.
    Steps already taken to address issue:
    I have verified/repaired permissions on my boot drive, a few files were changed but none in /Users/ritchiem
    I have deleted the Time Machine preferences: /Library/Preferences/com.apple.TimeMachine.plist
    I have tried a second external hard drive, in this case it was more interesting:
    It was reported as being to small to perform the backup. So I added some exclusions such as my large iTunes library.
    This allowed the Time Machine to proceed but again there was no backup performed of any file in home space.
    This is where I thought I must be doing something wrong and went to the Apple Store the genius tried all the usual suspects, permissions, preferences. But no success.
    It was only then that one of his colleagues picked up on discussion that it was only my user that was being skipped and suggested the risky move of renaming my user. He showed me the 'Advanced' panel in the Account System Preferences. (I never realised you could use a nice gui to do the renaming of a user in all the right Apple places.)
    So I swapped users and renamed my account, and moved my home space to a new user name. mv /Users/ritchiem /Users/martin
    I then logged back in to my account to verify the rename all worked and it had.
    _*Time Machine now worked!*_
    HOWEVER, that is a total hack. I use the username 'ritchiem' all across my local network and it was not recommended to have a user ritchiem but a home space in /Users/martin.
    I renamed my account back to 'ritchiem' and Time Machine again is blocking backups of /Users/ritchiem
    Somewhere on my drive there MUST be an exclusion that is preventing the first user that I created on my 2008 MacBook from being backed up. So far my grep-ing of the filesystem for 'ritchiem' has not shown any likely suspects. If anyone here knows where the mystic plist/file is that I need to zap then that would be great.
    If of course you have another work-around that does not require me to rename either my account or my home space then that would be great.
    Oh and I also tried to trick TimeMachine by creating a symbolic link in /Users to my home space (ln -s /Users/ritchiem /Users/martin). It resolves the link and refuses to backup the contents of my home space just as before.
    Please remember here that in all backups that Time Machine performed there was no error, console.log and the UI all report success.
    Now if I had a new blank machine and some time I could test out the theory that it is always the first user of a freshly installed machine. However, if other people have it working then it is perhaps not that simple.
    TIA
    Martin

    Thank you for all your advice and suggestions. Apologies for the delay I had difficulty locating my original install DVDs.
    Summary
    I have performed all the steps and checked items as requested however backups are still not including my home space (/Users/ritchiem)
    What I do find interesting is the output of the TimeMachine backup log (at the very end of this VERY long post) which states that 84.8 GB should be backed up but only 24.3 GB is actually backed up.
    Would love to know why TM decided 60.5GB of data should not be backed up but not explained in any of the log files and a successful backup reported.
    Before I go on to the details of what i've done, I should also mention in case it is important that I have of course been logged in with my user (ritchiem) whilst performing all of these backups. I assume that is normal and that you shouldn't have to log out for TM to actually backup your data. To verify this previously I have logged out user ritchiem and logged in as a test account. The path /Users/ritchiem still failed to backup. I have not tried this recently, however, I would be really surprised if you had to log out of your user account for the data to be backed up.
    Detail
    So to answer V.K. first: My drive did indeed have some items that it said I should repair. Hence the search for the install DVDs. I ran the Disk Utility from the Leopard installer and it repaired the drive. The verify now runs green.
    As I had just rebooted the machine and it was all fresh I repeated Pondini's previous steps as well.
    * Disabled TM
    * Exited System Preferences
    * Deleted /Library/Preferences/com.apple.TimeMachine.plist
    I then also deleted the Backups.backupdb from my external drive so everything was fresh and new. I would have just formatted it (which would have been waaay faster, but I have some copies as backups on there for now.)
    I started the TM prefs panel and added a few items to the disabled list to a) speed up the backup but also b) I have a 320g internal drive and only a 250g external. My total disk usage is 288 which won't fit, especially with the breathing space TM likes to have.
    Here is the data from console.log from the first two backup runs:

    *Other Steps*
    Whilst running TM I also setup dtrace to log every file open: (http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20071031121823710)
    Looking for any files in my home space that it might have opened returned none:
    ramaII:~ ritchiem$ grep "/Users/ritchiem" tm.dtrace |grep "entry backupd" |wc -l
    0
    Yet looking for all the files backed up from the /Users directory there were 458!
    ramaII:~ ritchiem$ grep "/Users/" tm.dtrace |grep "entry backupd" |wc -l
    458
    Dtrace also highlights the files that backupd uses unfortuately the only files it opened before it started its backup were:
    0 17720 open:entry backupd /Library/Preferences/com.apple.TimeMachine.plist
    0 17720 open:entry backupd /var/db/.TimeMachine.Cookie
    0 18506 open_nocancel:entry backupd /System/Library/CoreServices/backupd.bundle/Contents/Res
    ources/StdExclusions.plist
    The only file on that list I haven't seen mentioned before is the StdExclusions but I'm sure that is the same on everyone's machines... just incase though:

    *Next Steps*
    I've been thinking about what i could try next and not having many ideas. So I'm really hoping someone here will have a flash of inspiration.
    If I find some time at the weekend then I will try renaming my account again and verifying that it does backup under a new name.
    Just incase there is something odd about the first user account created, i.e. UID:501 I will make a new 'ritchiem' account (which will have the next UID, UID:504) and see if that gets backed up, I can try this while my current account has been renamed. If that does work then I can copy my files back in to that account and verify it isn't something in my home directory that is upsetting TM. Although I doubt this is the case as it never read any files from home space during the backup process.
    Here's hoping there is something in the above logs etc, that give a clue to what might be going wrong.
    Cheers
    Martin

    In making an attempt to copy my files to a different external hard drive, I ran into several issues with document files that were "read-only" so the copying stops. (they were just a couple of pdfs and photos). I deleted all of those files. I then ran back up again after verifying the external I have designated for Time Machine. (Ive also completely erased, repaired and verified this drive several times over the past few weeks) Backup failed, again.
    I feel like my next move is to start deleting the "files" that are causing the errors listed above in TM Buddy (they are mostly photos in iphoto)... but then I realized that some of those errors are associated with the backing up of my iphone.
    Just now, I pasted a portion of my system log into Textedit, and the application just hanged... for 2 hours. I finally force quit it. 

    Hi!  I did exactly as you said. I was able to backup with my home folder excluded, but was not able to do so after I removed the exclusion. It crapped out 5G before finishing.
    Here's the TIME MACHINE BUDDY LOG:

    Hi
    Are u taking the offline backup on disk or tape. Your log seems to be mentioning it to be on tape. Anyways, have you set the /oracle/SID/102_64/dbs/initSID.sap file parameters accordingly. Also the log says that there has been a user intervention to stop the backup. Did you press Cntrl C in the process. Offline backups to tape is a bit tricky aand even we are fighting on this. I would suggest taking it on disk and then transferring it to tape.

    Please some one help me on this.
    Thanks and Regards

    Update your BRTools. They are very old.
    Check that your DB is in archive-log-mode. If no enable it.
    testing backup
    - run a online backup
    - run "sqlplus / as sysdba"
    - SQL> alter system switch logfile; ... this switches the current online log... a new log will written to oraarch.
    - run a archivelog backup
    ... now you should have complete db-backup with minimum 1!!! archive log.
    Now you can delete old redologs from oraarch.
    If this doesn't work and your database is in archive-log-mode:
    - shutdown sap and oracle
    - MOVE all redologs from oraarch to a other location manually... no more files should be on oraarch
    - run a offline backup
    If the offline backup was running successfully you can delete the prior moved redologs. The backup is consistent and the redologs will no more required.
    - start oracle and sap
    Oracle should now write new redologs to oraarch. Test online backup!

    Hi,
    If the solution is not yet available:
    1) User does not have privilege:
    insufficient privilege: Not authorized   --> Just Grant BACKUP_ADMIN system privilege to the user
    2) In the Command you have to give only Backup Prefix not the absolute path:
    backup data using file ('COMPLETE_DATA_BACKUP_04_04');
    is correct command.

  • DPM 2012 R2 failing on backup of BMR and System State

    We are running DPM 2012 R2 on Windows Server 2012 and I am trying to protect another Windows 2012 Server with a Bare Metal Recovery and system state but it fails on initial synchronization.  I get the following error in DPM:
    DPM failed to create the backup. If you are backing up only System State, verify if there is enough free space on the protected computer to store the System State backup.  On protected computers running Windows Server2008, verify that Windows Server
    Backup (WSB) is installed and that it is not performing any other backup or recovery task. (ID 30214 Details: Internal error code: 0x80990ED0)
    This is a new server and there is 65.7 GB of 99.9 GB free on the C drive.  131 of 136 GB free on the F drive.  The P drive only has 100 MB free of 36.3 GB but that is where the pagefile is located, nothing else is on the P drive. 
    Would that be a problem or is that irrelevant?
    The replica volume is 30 GB and the recovery point volume is 6.06 GB.  I tried increasing the replica volume all the way up to 200 GB and the recovery point volume to 30 GB but that didn't matter. 
    Why is this not working?

    Hi,
    Try this and troubleshoot any errors along the way.
    1) Set up a network share on a remote machine
    \\server\bmrshare
    2) From an administrative command prompt on the Protected Server you want the BMR backup for, type:
    wbadmin.exe start backup -allcritical -backuptarget:\\server\bmrshare
    This should show you the list of volumes included in the BMR backup and ask "Do you want to start the backup operation?. - Type
    Y to continue..
    3) Once completed, see how large the BMR backup is on the remote server, then resize the DPM replica accordingly to accommodate the size of the manual BMR backup.

  • TM fails to Backup certain files - Error: (-41) SrcErr:NO Copying

    Hi,
    TM fails to backup certain files and I have no idea how to fix it. This is the error log:

    I am using a WD external HD with USB and have formatted it correctly according to Apples recommendation: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1550?viewlocale=en_US
    If I delete the file that gave an error, next time I backup TM continues to backup successfully until it reaches another file and gives the same error.
    I suspect it may have something to do with permissions, but obviously I have repaired the permissions and nothing changes.
    Any ideas how to fix this problem?
    Thanks
    OS 10.6.1

    I've had similar problems and would love to know how to resolve this problem...
    Previously clients were bound to AD with ADMitMac running 10.5.8 using Time Machine and everything is great for months...
    Upgrade to Snow Leopard 10.6.1 and uninstall ADMitMac and bind the clients to AD using built in Active Directory Plug-in. Everything works great except that Time Machine fails on all three computers which were upgraded. Here's what I've tried to solve the problem:
    1) Went into TM preferences and under "Select Disk..." set it to "None" and told TM to "Stop Backing Up" to turn TM off.
    2) Went into /Library/Preferences and deleted the com.apple.TimeMachine.plist file.
    3) Launched Disk Utility and reformatted the backup drive using a different name and made sure that it was formatted "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    4) When it finished it's format it prompted me to set as Time Machine Backup Disk which I did.
    At this point the backup runs backs up about half the drive and then I get the following types of errors in the Time Machine Logs...
    Time Machine errors from the current System log (according to TM Error Logger):

    error: 11
    No successful backups reported in the current log
    I can rule out a couple of different things... This occurs on two MacBook Pros and a MacPro Tower. The MacPro has a second internal drive and the two laptops have external drives connected via FW800. The two laptops are using different models of LaCie drives. So it's not model specific or something related to the type of drives or connections being used.
    I've repaired permissions on the source and target drives and run Disk Warrior 4.2 on them as well. I've tried running the time machine backup as a local administrator account in case it was a problem with their mobile user accounts with the same results. After doing the upgrade I had rebuilt the user's mobile accounts and in doing so did a recursive chown (sudo chown -R user:group "user's home folder") so there shouldn't be a permissions issue with these files anyway.
    So it's something to do with the data that TM is attempting to copy, but if it's not permissions then what is it? I don't believe that this data just became corrupted all of the sudden as TM was able to backup all this same data under 10.5.8 only hours before the snow leopard upgrade.
    My experience with Snow Leopard has been pretty good so far, but I'm seeing some serious inconsistencies with file permissions and I think this is what is causing this problem. I'm guessing it's something to do with ACLs going wonky, but insofar I've been unable to find and fix the problem.

  • SAP Note 378648 - Offline backup support with Oracle Fail Save

    I am trying to implement SAP Note 378648 - Offline backup support with Oracle Fail Save, but am unsure about part of the solution....
    Basically, I have to add several parameters into the Environment Variables of the MS Clustered Servers running Windows Server 2003 for the user xidadm... 
    Fairly straight forward apart from one parameter....
    BR_OFS_DOMAIN=<domain>
    I am unsure what is required/meant by domain.  Can anyone shed some light??

    Those are environment variables of the Windows user who is running brbackup; usually this is SAPService<SID>.
    You have to set this variables the same way as you set ORACLE_HOME and so on.
    (I am not sure about the details; never worked with MS cluster.)
    hope this helps

  • Time Machine fails to backup files migrated from Windows

    Hi there - I have a really annoying issue whereby I have a machine with a TC on the LAN which fails to backup.
    The scenario is thus - Mac Snow Leopard server which has files migrated from an old Windows server to one specific disk. This is where all the data resides so this is the only volume I actually really need to back up.
    However I keep getting the message that Time machine could not write to the device after a certain period of time with the classically unhelpful:-
    Console log mumbles on about what I suspect is the path/length of path or filenames which I understand. Question is - how do I get round this? There are thousands of files in here so I cannot ask the users to go around renaming the files and shortening the folder names (to be honest it doesnt seem that they are too long to me in any case).
    The files are shared using both AFP and SMB as a standard Sharepoint and the users on both Mac and PC have no problems at all accessing them, hence my confusion as to why TM has a problem with the file/folder names.
    Chocolate biscuit (or equivalent for those on detox) for anyone who can throw me a bone here.
    Cheers and thanks in advance,
    Si

    Not really sure if this is what you mean about Outlook database, but the correct answer may be in this thread's last post:
