Site System Backup failing

Having an issue where my backups are failing and only started recently. Each time checking the smsbkup.log getting the error "SQL Writer not found" and also "VSS_E_WRITERERROR_TIMEOUT". When doing a "vssadmin list writers" sometimes the "SMS Writer" is not
listed or has a failed state.
Running 2012 with SQL on separate box from primary.

Yes, I know this is an old post, but I’m trying to clean them up. Did you solve this problem, if so what was the solution?
This blog post might help you. https://madluka.wordpress.com/2011/02/01/sql-backup-task-failed-error-message-sql-writer-not-found/

Do the DLLs exist? Have you temporarily turn off AV and install the RP? what does srsrpMSI.log log say?

System Image Backup Failed During Backup

I have a 2 year old HP pavilion g series notebook. I was doing a system image backup onto dvd+r disks. It was nearly finished when on disk #99 I got this message "The Backup Failed. The system cannot find the path specified (0x80070003)
My computer is out of warranty and I'm out $60 in disks if they can't be used. I need to know it there is a way to salvage what I saved and restart Image backup from where it left off?

Hi CherylLyme,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I would like to take a moment and thank you for using the forum, it is a great place to find answers.
For you to have the best experience in the HP forum, I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I understand that you were doing an image backup and when it was nearly finished you received the error (0x80070003). Here is a link to a Microsoft answer to assist you. Windows backup error 0x80070003 ( Answered by Vinod N)
I am unsure if you would be able to start again and pick up on disk 99, as once you have repaired it, it will have changed from when you first ran the backup. The disk you used were not read, writeable, so you would not be able to reuse them. You may find that an external drive would be a more economical way to do your backups. The data would be in one place and easier to store. If you decide to use a USB stick it must not be more then 32GB and will not say Windows 8 on it.
You can most likely purchase an External drive for about the cost of replacing the disks. Here is a link to HP Shopping External storage , but you can purchase one at many places, computer shops, Staples,Walmart, and Office Depot are just a few. I hope this helps.

System Image Backup failing when trying to write to a Drobo 5N NAS

I'm trying to make a full system image through file history, and I get part way through the process until I get the following error:
The backup failed.
There was a failure in preparing the backup image of one of the volumes in the backup set. (0x807800C5)
Additional information:
The process cannot access the file because another process has locked a portion of the file. (0x80070021)
I've found one other thread where this was an issue and the user said that he had no issues doing it to a USB drive, so I'm assuming it's related to using a network one. I can run file history/recovery (whatever it's called) to the same network attached
server in the same parent folder so I know it's not a permission issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
In order to know whethr this issue is related with the speicfic NAS, I suggest you try to backup the image to another external drive and check if the error persists.
Actually, according to the error message, it seems more related with the files which need to be backed up, it is locked\unaccessable. I recommend you temporarily turn off any anti-virus program protection. Stop other running processes including background
processes, then try to backup again, test the result.

Site Component Manager failed to reinstall this component on this site system

Site Component Manager failed to reinstall this component on this site system.
Solution: Review the previous status messages to determine the exact reason for the failure. Site Component Manager will automatically retry the reinstallation in 60 minutes. To force Site Component Manager to immediately retry the reinstallation, stop and
restart Site Component Manager using the Configuration Manager Service Manager.

I concur with Vik, sitecomp.log records details about the maintenance of the installed site components on all site system servers in the site.

Hi,
in my case, I didn't have "System Writer" shown in the Writers list. I tried everything to put it up and running, but without any luck. I even tried re-registering writers, which was a bit risky, but that didn't help either.
Then I have found this hotfix, installed it, and it worked after it.
Anyway, you can find here on technet few topics about this particular issue. For the others, something else worked. Please, take a look:

wbadmin start backup -backuptarget:[NETWORK SHARE] -include:C: -allcritical
WBADMIN is able to create shadow copies of all the volumes on my system, but when it begins to create a backup of the EFI System Volume, it fails immediately:
The backup operation to [NETWORK SHARE] is starting.

There was a failure in preparing the backup image of one of the volumes in the backup set.
The I/O operation has been aborted because of either a thread exit or an application request.
The system is encrypted with Bitlocker, and does not have a TPM. I am also running Carbonite, but I have disabled it and the results are the same.
No data is actually written to the log files either, which is strange. The GUI System Image Backup utility also provides virtually the same error. Any thoughts?

Hi,
Try to test in WinRE to see what the result is.

Backup Fails after several successful days - errors "Device is not ready" & "The System cannot find the path specified"

Well I am back again, with another backup issue. After fixing one issue with the backup failing after a reboot, I have encountered another which is starting to cause me a lot of headaches.
The setup is thus - the backups run on a host machine running Windows Server 2012, this hosts three VM's (1x Server 2012 and 2x2008 Since the 19th of December a single backup drive has been attached for the backups (not ideal but the company had closed for
the holidays) up until the 26th these backups were working flawlessly.
On the 26th the backup completed with warnings, transferring a good 90% of the data to the backup (2/3 VMs). On the 27th it transferred a bit more at around 95% (2/3 VMs). On the 28th, it didn't completely backup a single VM.
On the 28th this error appeared in the event logs and after checking in the snap-in the same errors appear on the warning days as the errored day.
The backup operation that started at '‎2014‎-‎12‎-‎28T20:30:09.774946400Z' has failed with following error code '0x80780049' (None of the items included in backup were backed up.). Please review the event details for a solution, and then rerun the backup
operation once the issue is resolved.
Thanks in advance/

Hi,
Please check the detailed error message in the backup log files in C:\Windows\Logs\WindowsServerBackup. In additional, you could go through the similar thread to help troubleshoot this issue:

Cannot Remove Failed 2 Site System Servers

Good Afternoon All -
While setting up a fairly new SCCM (2012 Sp1 CU1) environment, there were a few things that were not done correctly. I recently started and am trying to get them figured out. I have two site servers which I cannot remove from SCCM. Below
is their status as well as what I've tried...
Site Server Issue #1
Site Code L56 - The server was a secondary server but for whatever reason has been taken offline and no longer exists without performing an uninstall first. It is listed in SCCM Sites as "Deleting"
After research, I opened regedit, and browsed to HKML\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SMS\Components\SMS_COMPONENT_MANAGER where i saw a key with the site server's name in it. I changed the value "Deinstallation Start Time" to "1" in the key
as well as sub keys (2 more values) using
these instructions. I restarted the SMS_COMPONENT service, and then loaded up the console, but it was still there. Back in the registry, though, the key was completely gone.
I also tried to use preinst.exe. When I run the string "preinst /delsite L56", I get "Cannot find site [L56] in the site control data in the database. Checking in ServerData in the database." What gives?
Site Server Issue #2
There was a site server which was a secondary site - however - it wasn't working correctly and we were on a dead line so this past weekend i uninstalled it as a secondary site, verified / installed pre-reqs, then simply deployed a distribution point and
management point role to it.
Now, I'm trying to turn it back into a secondary site which is installed properly. I deleted the site roles which I could (seemingly successfully as the DP shares and services are gone from the server.) In the console, I go to delete the site server,
itself, but get the error saying it cannot be deleted because it contains site system roles (and lists Component Manager.)
I thought to try preinst.exe for this one also, but it has the same Site Code as our Primary Site Server.
Both servers are running Windows Server 2012 & SQL 2012.
Any Ideas? Thanks!
Ben K.

Similar Issue. Have a child site that is showing "Deleting" in the SCCM console. Used preinst.exe, but it states:
"Cannot find site [S01] in the site control data in the database. Checking in ServerData in the database.[S01]
is not a known site."
How do I get rid of the child site in the SCCM console, and when I do, would it be safe to set up another child site with the same name and site?

Time Machine initial backup fails OS 10.5 with no reason but 'bus error'

I ran into an error on the last system update and had to go back to Leopard 10.5 just to see my stuff. I managed to move my home directory into the newly installed system and all my files are intact. Now I'm trying to get a Time Machine backup before I proceed (my initial mistake was not keeping up with them in the first place).
I had some trouble early on and at one point decided to reformat the external drive (a Fantom Drives GreenDrive, usb, 500Gb). I formatted as Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as recommended, no partitions, and then tried my first initial Time Machine backup.
It predictably spent a long time 'preparing...' and I followed along in the system log. Eventually, the copying began but early on (within the first 45 min) the backup failed with almost no indications in the log as to why. I've pasted the system log below.
One thought I had was that it was weird that there was an automatic request for backup at 12:36:54. I also included the CrashReport, but I can't make any sense out of it.
any ideas?

I should have added that I've been through about half a dozen sites (including sanctioned apple sites) and their recommendations for getting Time Machine to work properly. I did format the drive once (with extended journaled format and GUID partition scheme, but I didn't zero it out. I'm trying that now and I'll try TM again in about 4 hours.
This morning I tried turning Time Machine's automatic backups off (moved the slider to off in the preferences pane) and manually started a backup (right-clicking the TM icon in the dock and selecting "Backup Now"). It ran further along than before, but stopped again. This time, it gave an error, and I've pasted the log below. I looked but didn't find much helpful on "error 11."

Time Machine Backup Fails - backup disk is unmounted during backup

I've been having trouble on and off with Time Mahcine backups. I have an iMac running Lion, an external USB HD which is my Time Machine disk. It will run fine for a day or so and then fail with the "Unable to complete backup. An error occurred while creating the backup folder". If I run the Time Machine Buddy utility it shows the follwing error log:
Starting standard backup
Backing up to: /Volumes/Media/Backups.backupdb
Error: (22) setxattr for key:com.apple.backupd.HostUUID path:/Volumes/Media/Backups.backupdb/Kitchen size:37
Backup failed with error: 2
Stopping backup to allow backup destination disk to be unmounted or ejected.
Backup failed because the destination disk was ejected or disconnected unexpectedly!
Any idea why the backup disk would be unmounted during the backup?

I have had a related problem.
Over the last three-four years of using TimeMachine I have had FOUR (4) disk drives fail on me. In the first instance, the power supply failed twice. Switching from connection via Firewire to USB seemed to solve that problem.
Then in May 2011 I bought TWO x Freecom HD 1 TB portable drives, I indicated to the Apple retailer, YooBee, expressly for use as TimeMachine backups.
They have both FAILED for me, as per the description below, which I have filed on the Freecom support site.
So FOUR disk drives failing over 3 to 4 years is beyond bad luck, beyond coincidence, but 'conspiracy' as Churhill might have put it. The common factor is that all four disks failed 'on watch' as being my TimeMachine drives. I am VERY ALARMED at his rate of failure, and wonder if there is a fault with TimeMachine in burning out the disks through some feature of excess use?
I note the detailed advice here is pertinent ... but I've only just found it!

I was absolutely assured by my Apple Mac (YooBee, 123 Broadway, Newmarket) store that these drives would be perfect for TimeMachine backup. But to have TWO fail within 8 months of purchase is very, very, very alarming. One failing is bad luck. Two failing is more than coincidence....
There was an alarming clicking noise from the disks.
Disks were disconncted from USB.
Message from Mac saying USB drive disconnected incorrctly. I DID NOTHING: Timemachine was just in the middle of doing a backup, perhaps. I was just working away when I noticed the tiny noise, above.
I turned of Timemachine in preferences. Physically powered down and disconnected Freecom drive. Waited. Reconnected. Unable to remount. Used Disk Utility to mount, and initiated Repair.

You can still open or copy files on the disk, but you can't save changes to files on the disk. Back up the disk and reformat it as soon as you can.
Well: the Freecom is not able to be remounted, even after plugging, and replugging the USB.
This happened with TWO drives.
And despite the suggestion to backup the files NONE are accessible.
This is NOT what I expect to have happen with drives expressly purchased for use as TimeMachine backups.
I managed to reformat the one that first failed, about two months after purchase. I have not attempted to reformat the latest failure-- and loose my complete Timemachine backup. Naturally, I don't use the reformatted disk for Timemachine, but a Vault for Aperture.

Since I installed Yosemite, Time Machine is not doing any backup. It just keep coming with the following message in a window: "Backup Failed. Time Machine could´t back up to "....... Time Capsule". What can I do start backing up again?

Time Machine not working since Yosemite was installed.

I had this issue too and went through all the great suggestion found on this site, but finally was able to resolve it after looking at the system.log to see the reason it was failing. By using terminal and entering:
sudo grep backupd /var/log/system.log
I saw "Backup failed with error:11". Then looking above, I saw many "Error: (-36) SrcErr:YES /Applications/" messages. After "Applications" I saw the culprit files that were causing Time Machine to fail. I deleted some Apps that I didn't need and found Time Machine would get farther than before. I then looked at the system.log again and saw it failing on the remaining Apps. I was able to use Time Machine to restore these App directories from a couple months ago before the Time Machine was failing. Now the problem is resolved. Whew! It seemed to be choking on corrupt files and these can be corrected by restoring earlier ones that were not corrupted.
Well, I thought I should share this with others that may have run into the same issue so they can save time. Hope it helps!

Backup Failed - SCCM 2012 SP1

Hi Experts,
I got a Lab environment in which i am trying to backup the site server. I tried many ways to fix it but still the backups are getting failed. When i checked component status SMS_SITE_SQL_BACKUP_XXXXXX is
failed.
Will this be an issue. Please help me to fix it.
I tried below steps like
Windows firewall - Stopped
Verified Install.map
Antivirus file exclusion done on MCAFEE
Restarted the WMI service
Remote file share created for backup content storage
Rebooted the primary site server. Still no joy.
Regards, Pratap
