Backup Roaming Profile Data in windows Server 2008 R2

I am using windows server 2008r2 for active directory server.
I have configure roaming profile fore an user. I have configre roaming profile path is \\ads\Profile\user4 in C Drive.
I have log in this user in my domain network pc then simply like copy or create folder or some file in desktop. Then i have log in another pc from this domain network then i am getting desktop which was copy or create folder or files. Its working and
getting any pc in this domain environment.
Problem is like i have copy 2GB data in desktop and getting another pc for login this user but whose folder i have set for roaming profile this folder shows 0 byte.
But my question is how can i backup data for this user from my ADS Server for roaming profile?
Thanks & Best Regards,
Rabeul Islam

Hi,
You can use Group Policy to enforce limits to the size of roaming profiles. It seems that the size of the roaming profiles exceeded the size in the policy setting. Windows does not synchronize the user's profile to the profile server when it exceeds the policy
enabled limit.
You could increase the size use the Limit profile size policy setting. This increase causes delays in user logons, because it takes some time for Windows to copy the information to the local computer.
For more detailed information, please refer to the articles below:

Restore bkf Backup Files on Tape with Windows Server 2008 R2

We have to migrate an application from a legacy server (OS Windows Server 2003) to a new server (OS Windows Server 2008 R2).
Due to legal obligations we have to keep backups for 10 years. Until now NTBACKUP was used to store the data on tape.
We must be able to restore data from tapes of the last 10 years for audit purposes.
We installed Update für Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 Edition (KB974674) containing NTBackup-RestoreUtility on the new server.
It seems that this tool is not able to restore from tapes.
How can we fullfil the legal requirements to restore backuped data from tape on Windows Server 8 R2 (and in future with Windows Server 2012 R2)?

Backup Error : The Data Is Invalid Windows Server 2008 R2

Hello,
I have a Problem when I try to make Backups to Partition C in Windows Server 2008 R2:
Error The Data is Invalid.
Obs: I can make backups for System Reserved Partition .
I had the same problem 2 months ago (the data is invalid), Then I folowed this the advice to delete "Framework64\v2.0.50727\Temporary
ASP.NET Files" and worked for me , from this post: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/windowsbackup/thread/89052b85-9c9b-479f-ab76-a20da3cc4696
Now I have the same problem and I delete the
Temporary ASP.NET Files , but it is not working , I received the same error on backup:
"The backup operation that started at '‎2012‎-‎09‎-‎20T07:13:26.024163900Z' has failed with following error code '2147942413'. Please review the event details for a solution, and then rerun the backup operation once the issue is resolved."
When I try vssadmin list writers, Everything is ok , "No error" .
I tried to run :
net stop "System Event Notification Service"
net stop "COM+ Event System"
net stop "Microsoft Software Shadow Copy Provider"
net stop "Volume Shadow Copy"
cd /d %windir%\system32
net stop vss
net stop swprv

net start "System Event Notification Service"
net start "COM+ Event System"
net start "Microsoft Software Shadow Copy Provider"
net start "Volume Shadow Copy"
But is not Working
Any Advice ?
Thank's

Hello Lucian,
the issue may be caused by an invalid entry inside the following registry sub tree.
HKey_Local_Machine\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList
Please open the registry editor with regedit.
Expand and local to the subtree, check if there is an entry that has a ".bak" value appended. If so, this may be cause the failure when trying to resolve the SID of the writer.
Please backup the registry key first, and then delete that entry with the extra ".bak" and reboot the server then test the backup
Run the command "vssadmin list writers" and make sure all the writers are stable with no errors
Please look for errors in application event logs after you initiate backup on the server

Backed up files partially disappear after restore (Windows Server 2008 R2 - Windows Server Backup)

Dear all,
I am experiencing a problem with "Windows Server 2008 R2", using Windows Server Backup.
Here's my setup:
Server: RAID 5 Disk setup
Backup:
By using Windows Server Backup (within Windows Server 2008 R2), C: and D: were fully backed up, with "System State" and "Baremetal Recovery" options selected. Backup went okay without any errors.
Restore:
By using Windows Recovery Environment (booted from Windows Server DVD), C: and D: were fully restored to the original partitions with "System Recovery" option found within Windows RE (without re-formatting partitions during restore). Restore
went OK without any errors. Rebooted, and system has been running fine.
Problem:
After the restore, the system itself seems running OK; no BSOD, no crash, no visible errors.
However, our client insisted some files (around 6 to 7) which are related to the propriety software has "disappeared" right after System Recovery.
Question:
Since Windows Server Backup is using "Volume Shadow Copy" technology which enables "live backup" of the running system, is it possible that some files will disappear (=restore error) after
System Recovery?
I cannot really find any errors or warnings related to Windows Server Backup in the event log, through. No Windows-backup errors. No VSS errors, too.
Do anybody have experienced this kind of problem in the past? Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your reply, Ms. Mandy.
To make things clear, let me explain to you briefly:
1. The "missing data" was backed up with "full system backup".
2. After a system restore from the above backup image, as you mentioned, partitions has been overwritten with the partions' backup data in the Backup Data Set taken by Windows Server Backup. No error with backup. No error after restore, and reboot - system
has been running fine.
3. Although there was a report that the affected files(about 7 java exectables) were missing after the above restore operation, other aspect of system was running fine at the time of the report.
4. I have checked the original backup data set - and voila, there ARE files which seems to gone after restore.
5. When I used Windows Server Backup "on" Windows Server 2008 R2 normal environment (= NOT Recovery environment from DVD) and selectd ONLY these affected files to restore, these files could be RESTORED successfully, without any errors. SO... data
was property backed up.
> The recovery will overwrite the partitions so files created after the backup point will be missing.
I understand, and this is not the case this time, because the affected files are already present in the backup data set (= I have mounted the backup data as VHD, and I could clearly see them present in the mounted VHD file)
Plus, these files are completely restoreable via "selective file restore" in Windows Server Backup.
Things I want to know/confirm:
> The recovery will overwrite the partitions
If I understand this correctly, in case that the files in question are already present in the backup data set, these files SHOULD be restored after full system restore, right? (If these files could not be restored, Windows Server Backup SHOULD show some errors.)
What do you think, Ms. Mandy? :)

Offline data synchronization in azure mobile services on windows server 2008

Hi,
I have a class library which insert data into tables in azure mobile services on windows server 2008 OS for windows universal C# platform. I am trying to insert data using offline data synchronization.
I had installed SQLite runtime for windows 8.1 and windows phone 8.1, but unable to add reference 'SQLite for Windows Runtime(Windows8.1)'.
Please guide me whether windows server 2008 OS supports offline data synchronization in azure mobile services.
Thank you.

I also have a Windows Server 2012 R2 system using Azure Backup, and I don't have the problem. However, you probably noticed that you use a different Azure Backup installation download for Windows Server 2008 R2 vs. Windows Server 2012 R2. Although both
show the same Microsoft Azure Recovery Services Agent version 2.0.8692.0 installed, my Windows Server 2012 R2 also lists Microsoft Azure Backup for Windows Server Essentials version 6.2.9805.9 installed as well. It could be the case the my problem with the
CATALOG FAILURE 0x80131500 errors is something specific to the version of Azure Backup installed on my Windows 2008 R2 servers.

Did you add a System DSN or a User DSN? If you added a User DSN from your own login, the asp.net application will not be able to use it unless its application Pool in IIS is configured to run under the same credentials that you used for creating
the DSN. It's better if you add a System DSN.
Also, be careful to ensure that you are using a 64 bit DSN, unless you configure the application to run in 32 bits. If the 64 bit application attempts to use the 32 bit driver you get the same error message "Data source name not found and no default
driver specified". See this KB article:

Windows Server 2008 backups failing

I have a Windows Server 2008, fully patched that backups recently started to fail and now, we are unable to open the Windows Server Backup. Also unable to open Disk Management or any other applications requiring Virtual Disk.
Attempts to start VDS from service or command line result in the following errors:
1:
A timeout was reached (180000 milliseconds) while waiting for the Virtual Disk service to connect.
2:
The Virtual Disk service failed to start due to the following error: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.
I added the debuglog to registry and the $vds$.log only records the following:
(PID:8988,TID:10060,17:32:43) ERROR: CVdsLoader::LoadService, 3, hr=8007041D
I have also increased the timeout dramatically to no avail.
SFC /scannow returns:
Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them.
Nothing requiring Virtual Disk Service will operate making backups and imaging impossible.
Any thoughts?

Hi,
As SFC could find some issues (but fail to fix), please try to DISM could help as well:
DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

Get-Hotfix InstalledOn property not returning hotfix installed Date and Time on Windows Server 2008 SP2 but works on Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1

Hi,
I am working on a validation script to get the list of hotfixes installed on Domain Controllers every month as part of our monthly DC patching process. I have been successful in getting these details for DC's with (Windows Server 2008
R2 SP1, Powershell v2.0) using the below command.
Get-HotFix -cn $computer | Select-Object PSComputerName,HotFixID,Description,InstalledBy,InstalledOn | where InstalledOn -ge (Get-Date -Day 1 -Format d) | FT -AutoSize
I execute the above from a jump box with powershell v4.0 (Server 2008 R2)
However, when I try the same command from the jump box to query DC's with (Server 2008 SP2, powershell v2.0). It doesn't return the InstalledOn date and time. It was giving error for the InstalledOn property and hence I renamed it to $_.InstalledOn. Now
I don't get error but still no details displayed for InstalledOn property.
I tried using the below, as could see on few forums that this might resolve the issue. I also tried removing the "where" part but still no installation date returned.
Get-HotFix -cn $computer | Select-Object HotFixID, Description, InstalledBy, @{l="InstalledOn";e={[DateTime]::Parse($_.psbase.properties["installedon"].value,$([System.Globalization.CultureInfo]::GetCultureInfo("en-US")))}}
| where {$_.InstalledOn -ge (Get-Date -Day 1 -Format d)} | FT -AutoSize
Have tried this locally on the 2008 SP2 DC but still not working. Please advise what is going wrong?
Note: If I execute the below command locally on the 2008 SP2 DC, I am getting the InstalledOn output. However, when executed from the jump box with powershell v4.0 (Server 2008 R2) to query
the same 2008 SP2 DC, it just gives the prompt again without any error or output. This behavior is consistent for other 2008 SP2 DC's in the environment.
Get-HotFix -cn $computer | Select-Object HotfixID,Description,InstalledBy,InstalledOn | where {$_.InstalledOn -ge (Get-Date -Day 1 -Format d)} | FT -AutoSize

Hi jrv, I have already tried the Win32_QuickFixEngineering option, which doesn't work either. Apologies for not mentioning the workarounds that I have already tried.
Get-Hotfix seems to be just a wrapper for Win32_QuickFixEngineering as per the below article. (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh849836.aspx)
I have seen a mention of using the WU ActiveX control on few forums, but was too lazy to read it through.
After rigorous testing, it makes me realize that somewhere the Get-Hotfix dates formatting\comparison isn't working.

When trying to start my Windows server 2008 R2 Data Center, I am getting "ramdisk device creation failed due to insufficient memory",

I have the following:-
VMWare workstation version 9 , with windows server 2008 R2 data center installed.
- I have installed the windows 2008 R2 inside the VM using an iso image.
- The host is windows 7.
I use to work well with the VM, but after adding a new VM to the same workstation . I start getting the following error when starting my old VM
ramdisk device creation failed sue to insufficient memory.
And on the windows boot manger screen they mentioned to :-
inset my windows installation dis and restart my PC.
click “repair your computer”
but not sure if this will fix the problem , baring in mind that the RAM assigned to the VM
is 24 GB & 80 GB hard disk.
The error is
Link.
so can any one advice what is causing this error?
Thanks

You might start by checking the RAM.
