DPM 2012 R2 Virtual machine - can you backup to disk then to TAPE

I'm tasked with using DPM 2012 R2 to backup a 16 node 2012 R2 hyper-v CSV cluster. I will need to incorporate tapes in this scenario
my DPM server is a virtual machine, on a 2 node cluster.
what type of tape device can we use? FC or ISCSI?
Any ideas please let me know
ANNCEX

AFAIK, DPM being deployed as a virtual machine should
work fine with ISCSI device. If the given device doesn't have ISCSI capability, you can utilize
certain 3-party tool in order to make device visible via ISCSI protocol. We're using similar approach with Veeam in our environment.
Kind regards, Leonardo.

Using time machine - can you go back restore then come back to now and restore again?

Hi
Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere.
I just did the latest upgrade to Snow Leopard that came out in the last week or so and my old Australian Tax Office software program called e-Record 6 no longer works.
I have Time Machine.
I have a really dumb question.
If I go back in time to before I did the upgrade - and do a restore - do I also lose all the work and emails etc etc that I have done between then and now?
I want to go back in time - to the old version of snow leopard so that my old software works again. While I am there I want to export all the data out of the program into a spreadsheet and print out all the records so I have them as a hard copy (so I an actually lodge a tax return) and then I want to just come straight back to now and keep going. I don't want to lose any of the work or emails I have worked on over the past week.
Once you restore a to a time past can you then restore to a later backup - say today?
I hope I am making sense.
I really just want to time travel briefly.
TIA

I'm not sure about the TM question; you can try reading Pondinin's TM FAQs to see if it gives a clue.
First, though, try the v1.1 update which is supposed to have fixed the issue with Rosetta created by the original version.
If that doesn't fix it, there are a number of threads with possible solutions - this one is typical;

If you remove a backup from Time Machine, can you add it later?

if you remove a backup from Time Machine, can you add it back later? I have two backup sets active, but only one is connecting to a drive at the moment. It seems to be pausing TM for the inactive one, which is as I would expect, except that the menu icon for TM shows an exclamation point (= "waiting to backup"). I'd rather have that error / pause sign show if the ACTIVE connected drive is experiencing issues. It has zero diagnostic function as currently set up.
The solution would be to remove the backup drive from the TM list and then add it back later. I am just unsure if I can do this (will TM recognize the alternate backup set again if I re-add it?)

Yes, you can re-add it.

DPM Servers on Virtual Machines

Hello,
My name is Murat and I am responsible for DPM servers at my company. We use DPM for file,sql,exchange and Hyper-V snapshoot backups. Our DPM servers are
physical servers on the other hand my IT manager wants DPM servers on Hyper-V virtual machines.
Is there supported? for example My DPM servers DPM1-2-3-4 will run on Hyper-V VM and attached Storage for disks. then start to backup.
thanks
Murat ER Microsoft Certified Systems Administrator

Hello Murat,
DPM 2012 is supported on Hyper-V Virtual Machine. You can check hardware requirements

Backing up Windows Server 2012 R2 Virtual Machine

When I try to back my Windows Server 2012 R2 Virtual machine up to a NAS, using the Windows Server Utility I get the following errors:
There was a failure in preparing the backup image in one of the volumes in the backup set.
Detailed error: The process can not access the file because another process has locked a portion of the file.
When viewing the errors in Event viewer I get the following error:
The backup operation that started at '‎2014‎-‎03‎-‎12T10:23:08.681735200Z' has failed with following error code '0x807800C5' (There was a failure in preparing the backup image of one of the volumes in the backup set.). Please review the event details for
a solution, and then rerun the backup operation once the issue is resolved.
Any help will be appreciated.
Regards
Louis

Have a look, check whether the solution is working for you.

FYI Update Rollup 3 for Microsoft System Center 2012 R2 - Virtual Machine Manager (KB2965413) Stops SCVMM service starting

I just applied update:
Update Rollup 3 for Microsoft System Center 2012 R2 - Virtual Machine Manager (KB2965413)
and (KB2965414) but it failed to install.
After a reboot I could not login to the VMM and the service would not start
An event id 0 was reported with:

After I removed the update the VMM was able to start, no reboot required.
When I have time I will try to apply both updates again successfully and see if the issue still occurs.

FYI. I've had the same issue after I installed Update Rollup 3 (KB2965413), seeing the exact same error on event log. Tried to start the service manually, getting service unable to start error. This is a machine running
with Windows Server 2012 Standard. Solution for me is simple. I just install
KB2965414 (Update Rollup 3 for SCVMM 2012 R2), reboot the server, and the SCVMM service auto start up by itself.

I'm buying a new MAC. How many machines can you associate with one CS Cloud account?

I'm buying a new MAC. How many machines can you associate with one CS Cloud account?

You can install the software on as many computers as you like.
However you can only activate the software and use it on a maximum of two computers at any one time.

Can you backup on icloud and also sync to your computer?

Can you backup an iPhone 4s to icloud and also sync to a computer if you wanted to?

Yes.

I just started getting the same message. I'm using a Western Digital My Book 3TB disk. Normally I have the backups done with the disk attached to Airport Extreme.
I hate to have to tell you this, but backing-up that way is unreliable and not supported by Apple. See: Using Time Machine with an Airport Extreme Air Disk.
Backup failed with error: The target disk image volume is read-only.
Most likely, you got this message before all this started:
What that doesn't explicity say is, the backups failed the verification. When that happens, Time Machine marks the sparse bundle as damaged and won't back up to it anymore (even if Repair Disk can't find the problem). See #C13 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting for details.

Wich Sun machines can boot from SATA disk?

Hi,
I would like to know which (newer and older) Sun machines can boot from SATA disks.
I think this is a feature of the OBP - so the question is:
Are there any updated OBPs for older Sun machines to boot from SATA disks?
TIA
Bernd

Hi,
I am aware the limit with earlier openboot revisions that limit ATA drive size to +130GB>>( search the forum for previous threads on this topic ), I recommend using only
supported drives in Sun SPARC systems. What kind of project are you working on? That's my private test environment. Due to my limited budget I use only older machines there (for example, U10, U30, etc). I was thinking about buying a used V120 or something like that to replace my existing fileserver.
A V120 with two internal 500 GB harddisks would be perfect for that .
Looks like I've to wait until used T1000 are available to a reasonable price.
regards
Bernd

The error that I am getting is this "Time Machine can't use the disk image because it can't be written to." Any ideas on the fix for this?

The error that I am getting is this "Time Machine can't use the disk image because it can't be written to." Any ideas on the fix for this? When I go to the Time Capsule my Macbook Pro shows that it is locked, I think I did something wrong, but can't figure how to unlock it to see if that fixes it.

As far as we know, Time Machine cannot write to a disk image. It needs to write directly to the Time Capsule disk.

Server 2012 cluster - virtual machine live migration does not work

Hi,
We have a hyper-v cluster with two nodes running Windows Server 2012. All the configurations are identical.
When I try to make a Live migration from one node to the other I get an error message saying:
Live migration of 'Virtual Machine XXXXXX' failed.
I get no other error messages, not even in event viewer. This same happens with all of our virtual machines.
A normal Quick migration works just fine for all of the virtual machines, so network configuration should not be an issue.
The above error message does not provide much information.

Hi,
Please check whether your configuration meet live migration requirement:
Two (or more) servers running Hyper-V that:
Support hardware virtualization.
Yes they support virtualization.
Are using processors from the same manufacturer (for example, all AMD or all Intel).
Both Servers are identical and brand new Fujitsu-Siemens RX300S7 with the same kind of processor (Xeon E5-2620).
Belong to either the same Active Directory domain, or to domains that trust each other.
Both nodes are in the same domain.
Virtual machines must be configured to use virtual hard disks or virtual Fibre Channel disks (no physical disks).
All of the vitual machines have virtual hard disks.
Use of a private network is recommended for live migration network traffic.
Have tried this, but does not help.
Requirements for live migration in a cluster:
Windows Failover Clustering is enabled and configured.
Yes
Cluster Shared Volume (CSV) storage in the cluster is enabled.
Yes
Requirements for live migration using shared storage:
All files that comprise a virtual machine (for example, virtual hard disks, snapshots, and configuration) are stored on an SMB share. They are all on the same CSV
Permissions on the SMB share have been configured to grant access to the computer accounts of all servers running Hyper-V.
Requirements for live migration with no shared infrastructure:
No extra requirements exist.
Also please refer to this article to check whether you have finished all preparation works for live migration:

AVHD files not being deleted by Hyper-V when DPM backs up virtual machines

Hi,
I understand DPM uses checkpoints to backup Hyper-V virtual machines.
We have seen a few instances whereby the AVHD files that are created at the time DPM backs up the VM are not being deleted on the CSV disk.
There are no checkpoints associated with the virtual machine in Hyper-V settings.
We did delete one of these AVHD files on a non-production system and it was successful, the AVHD files are not being used by the virtual machine.
Is it safe to delete these AVHD files? Anyone experienced anything similar?
Microsoft Partner

Hi
Could you please let su know if you have acrried out any ILR operations?
When you recover a VHD of a virtual machine that has Hyper-V snapshots, .avhd files are not displayed in the
Recoverable Items pane, but DPM recovers the parent VHD and all the associated .avhd files.
Just want to confirm that these avhd files are not coresponding to recovery process.

Can you backup to 2 different Time Capsules?

I have a TC at home and one at work. Can I backup to both?

Yes, you can do this, but you must manually point your computer at the Time Capsule that you want use to each time you change locations.
Open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock)
Click Time Machine
Click Select Disk
Highlight your Time Capsule
