Can't Add 2 of 3 host clusters' C/SystemState drive etc to a Protection Group

I originally had my Cluster host servers added to one protection group and backing up at the same time, but this was causing some lag on the VMs due to the fact that all the hosts were being backed up as the same time.  So I removed them from the existing
protection group and started to create three individual groups with different start times.  Now on 2 of my Hyper-V Cluster servers when trying to enumerate, so I can backup the server itself not VMs, the MMC crashes when creating a new protection group
or trying to add to an existing group.  This happens on two of three of my Hyper-V cluster Servers, the VMs are getting backed up successfully and all the rest of the servers enumerate or expand like normal.  Here is the event ID that is recorded. 
Removed and reinstalled agent on problematic server and there was no change.  -- DPM 2012r2 RU5, Server 2012r2, Hyper-V 2012r2

I solved my problem and it was actually not difficult, just not very logical.
When you encountered the crash as mentioned above, try the following:
In the Select Group Members dialog:
Select the node that has the problem, but do not press the “+” sign to the left of it and don’t double click it.
Press the Refresh bottom, and wait for it to update the data source.
That solved the problem for me.
It’s still a bug, that it can crash the MMC!

    The VMM Server should never have the Hyper-V Role enabled.
    The VMM 2008 can only be installed on 2012:

  • Can not add new VMS into existing clustered server pool

    For some reason, we reinstall VMM (3.1.1-416) with existing UUID and rediscover all VMSs. The process went smooth and the whole system looks clean without dead objects any more. The guest VMs are all working fine. However, the new added VMS in unassigned servers are not displayed in the "Available Servers" when we want to add into existing clustered server pool, but it is shown when we add into unclustered server pool. Anyone has clue or possible way to debug what's wrong.
    Thanks,
    Shun-Jee Liu

    The issue is resolved. The access group in shared iSCSI is not properly configured.

  • Can I add just one folder from an external hard drive to the Time Machine Backup?

    I have TM set up to backup my main iMac hard drive.  I have an external hard drive with photos on it that I would like to add to the TM backup as well.  Not the whole hard drive - just one folder with current photos I am working on.

    it wouldn't let me "open up" the hard drive to see the contents
    Select the volume icon in the Finder and open the Info window. Click the padlock icon in the lower right corner of the window and enter your administrator password when prompted. Check the box at the bottom marked

    Close the Info window.

  • 'Add Edit' aka cut/slice/split function working differently in CC.  Can't add to tracks selected on left pane (v1, v2, etc).

    I've noticed that the 'Add edit' aka cut, slice, split function of PP CC no longer adds the edit to the clips selected in the left pane (v1, v2, etc).  Instead I have to highlight the actual clips on the timeline before cutting them.  This is inefficient and not how Premiere Pro has functioned since I started using it years ago.  Is there a workaround for this?  I tried locking the tracks I don't want cut and doing an 'Add Edit to all' but there is a half second to second delay using that method which slows down my editing.

    In version 7.2.2, the keyboard shortcut works on all targeted tracks when no clips are selected, and on selected clips without regard to targeting.  This gives the best of all possible scenarios.
    The tool (C) cuts on the clips you apply it to, without regard to targeting.

  • Can't drag songs from itunes onto anything (desktop, flash drive, etc.)

    This is weird.
    All of a sudden, I can't drag songs from itunes onto the desktop, any folder on my hard drive, my flash drive, or my spare hard drive. On a health computer, if you drag a large number of files, first they land as white icons and they fill in as they get transferred. With my computer, the white icons stick around for a few second and then disappear. The first time I try, I can transfer 1-10 files successfully. After that it stops working. Here is what I've done.
    1] Upgraded my system from 10.3.X to 10.4.5
    2] I upgraded itunes from 7.0 to 7.3.1
    Has anyone seen this before?
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks!
    Jeff

    Since I can not edit my own post I'll have to reply to myself... Sorry for the "spam" on the forums.
    I DID find something out (while playing with this some more)...
    Try and copy as many songs as you can with UNIQUE titles. I've noticed that when you drag the songs in iTunes to the desktop (or a folder) the file it creates/copies is named like so: "songtitle.mp3."
    Apparently the Finder and iTunes don't play well together [enough] to prevent several files of the same name from appearing - in most OS's I've played with (Linux and Windows, in addition to other Apple & Mac OS's over the years) there's a mechanism for handling this... Windows just adds a number to the end the of the second (and all future occurring) file(s) of the same name - as does most Linux builds I've used... Apparently the Finder in OS X just doesn't do anything - at all - when it discovers this "name error."
    What I had to do (I was copying my Christmas music - do you know how many "Jingle Bells.mp3" files you can have?!) was make many folders or manually rename EACH FILE one by one so that others could be copied in the same place since the file name would always be JUST THE SONG NAME and the extension (and I do tend to keep my files in higher bitrate MP3 format for easier shuffling from OS to OS as I tend to use (in case you've not noticed) many different ones at any given time).
    So, try avoiding any songs with the same title (or altering the title in iTunes somehow), or make separate folders to keep the same song name files from being created in the same place; and see if that doesn't clear this problem up for you - it did for me. ^_^
    And sorry for being so "wordy" on this post. ^_^;

  • Can't add files to two different phones

    I have created a ringtone for my iphone 4s and loaded just fine.  I tried to add the ringtone to my fiances phone and I get the red circle with the line through it so I can't add anything to her phone.  No photos, music etc.  I tried signing out of Itunes and into her account but still nothing.  Computer is authorized.  Ringtone is in the Tones folder in ITunes but just can't drag and drop in hers but can in my Iphone 4s.  Any suggestions?

    I think your method is wrong.  You should not change the m4a file to m4r file in it's original location which is for music library.
    Refer proper steps here for creating ringtones:
    Before you start, first go to iTunes top menu, click "Edit", "Preference". Under "general" Tab, click "Import Settings", make sure under Import Using that "AAC Encoder" is selected.
    Right click the song in music library you want to create ringtone and choose “Get Info” 
    Choose “Option” Tab, Check “Start Time” & Stop Time” of the track you want to make into ringtone and put in your start time and end time (Max 40 secs duration), then click OK 
    Right mouse click the music again and choose “Create AAC Version” 
    You will see a copy of song with same name appeared but with 40sec duration only. Now drag the song onto your desktop and you will see the name is now xxxxxx.m4a. 
    Change the file extension m4a into m4r from the desktop 
    Delete the 40sec m4a file from the music library (You must do this step or Itune will not accept your new m4r file). 
    *Important - Now uncheck the start & stop time of the original song so that you can play back full length. 
    Now, drag the m4r file from desktop to Library 
    Click onto the Tones under Library, and you find you ringone file.
    Once you have the ringtones in Tones library, you may sync it to your device. Connect and select your iPhone on iTunes left Pane, then on right go to Tones tab and make sure SYNC Tones is checked and click the APPLY or SYNC button on the lower right window.

  • How can I add metadata to iWeb pages hosted on .mac?

    How can I add title/description/keyword metadata to my website?
    Is there an easy solution?
    I publish my site to my .mac account.
    Any direction would be appreciated. I work in the web marketing industry, so it bugs me not being able to add metadata to my site.
    Thanks!
    Macbook   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    So I find the folder: Welcome_files for example
    Then do I open up the Welcome.js file using text
    editor?
    When I add the metadata, then do I Save As and put
    the file back into the Welcome_files folder?
    Actually every page like Welcome has a Welcome.html file and then a folder "Welcome_files". The file you want to edit is the Welcome.html file. Not anything in the folder.
    Do I need to Publish again, or is that process
    automatic since the site is pulling from down from my
    iDisk?
    Nope don't publish again. That would just overwrite you changes again. Just save the file in the same place and you're done.
    Will I have to re-enter metadata every time that the
    page changes, or every time the site changes?
    Anytime iWeb thinks the page needs to be republished, your edited file will be overwritten.

  • I can not add the smart lists to ipod

    I can not add the smart lists to ipod, itunes If (when clicking the lists are empty) but notas add to the ipod touch are not added automatically.

    Experiencing exactly the same error. The error only occurs on the clustered gateway. Non-clustered gateways work fine. I followed Kristian's whitepaper exactly except that I didn't use a service template to create the gateway cluster. All NICs are connected
    to the proper switches. There are no relevant events/errors on the hosts or the gateway cluster nodes.
    Troubleshooting steps taken so far...
    1. reboot everything
    2. deleted the network service from VMM and re-added
    3. Verified that HNV is working on the host cluster by disabling "host dedicated to gateway" and moving an NVGRE VM to the cluster.
    4. Verified all other networks are working properly on the host cluster.
    5. Deleted and re-added all NICs in the gateway cluster.
    6. Verified that the gateway can be configured using Powershell on the host and remote.
    Now I'm going to create another clustered gateway and another non-clustered gateway to reproduce the problem.
    Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Has anyone found a fix for this? I've been troubleshooting this issue for 4 days now. I've unjoined/rejoined the host to the domain, deleted SCVMM certificate, given permissions (out the wahzoo) in COM/Access Permissions, all updates installed, firewall
    is off (I even tried turning it on and configuring program/port access), I've tried with 3 different domain accounts that are a member of the local Administrators group.
    The other day I managed to get the host added (don't ask me how) but then all the VM's were in status 'Host not responding' so I couldn't even manage them. So I removed it and now can't get the host added again. I'm using SCVMM 2008 R2 SP1 and the problem
    host is Server 2008 R2 SP1 x64.
    Error (406)
    Access has been denied while contacting the server xxxxxxxx.domain.com.

    2. Verify that DCOM access, launch, and activation permissions are enabled on xxxxxxx.domain.com for the Administrators group. Use dcomcnfg.exe to modify permissions, and then try the operation again.
    I was getting this error after I got the host added:

    How can you add an image in Mail without being an attachment?
    In otherwords I'd like to put my logo in the email not as an attachment but as an image.
    Is there a simpel solution to this problem?

    PBN1 wrote:
    How can you add an image in Mail without being an attachment?
    You don't.
    It's not possible. The e-mail protocol is designed for text; anything else has to go as an attachment.
    Different mail clients (such as Mail.app, the mail client bundled with Mac OS X) may have different ways of handling such attachments, but they are still attachments. Each mail client has its own rules and methods, so one may display a picture as if it were in the body of the message, but another client may do something completely different.
    A way of faking it is to format your message in HTML (which is a kind of text). The image is hosted on a remote server, not added to the message; instead, you include a link to it in the body of the message, as you would when building a web page. (This is also what the two tips helpfully provided by X423424X do, except that the link to the image is added in the signature, rather than the body of the message.) What exactly happens to it is, again, at the discretion of the mail client. In my case, for instance, displaying images in HTML messages is turned off, and will stay resolutely off.
