Time Machine backup problem OS X server 10.5.8

Greetings,
I am having a horrible time getting an OS X 10.5.8 server to run Time Machine. I've followed all of the advice, started with a fresh drive, et...etc...etc... and no love.
When starting Time Machine, I get the following in the logfile. Can anyone help?

I also had to restart the server and client after applying the "fix" I described above. Basically, no user should have multiple, simultaneous file sharing sessions on the server. But even clearing the user sessions does not resolve the problem beyond the next Time Machine backup, so I also tried disabling and enabling file sharing, but the problem also returns after doing this. Only restarting both the client and server after clearing the sessions has worked for me when I have this problem. The problem may return much later, but this work aroudn definitely works as a temporary solution.
Next time I encounter this problem I will try restarting just the server or just the client, because it is unlikely that the problem exists due to something on both systems. Server 3.x is definitely not as stable as it should be, but for my use, it is getting the job done.

Time machine backup from 10.6 server to Lion

Hi
I am running a Mac mini Server with SL Server, but I do not use the server features, it's pretty much a regular workstation. Now I want to upgrade to Lion (workstation) by formatting the hard drive and do a clean install. My question is if it is possible to restore my user data from the Time Machine backup done in SL Server during the setup of Lion? Are those os'es backups compatible or do I have to manually backup my home directory and user data and add everything after finishing the Lion install?
Thanks in advance
/Niclas

Thanks for your reply.
I guess that on 10.6 as far as TM is concerned the server version is exactly the same as the client version, except that we don't have the benefit of Migration Assistant to do the inherit for us.
I am using a USB disc for TM.
I can see that under Backup.backupdb I have a folder named after the old server, which contains the backups.
I did try simply renaming that to the new server name, just in case the solution might be that simple. But I get "operation not permitted". It's not a permissions problem, and doing chflags nouchg doesn't help. I guess it could be the schg flag, but I'm reluctant to try too hard in case I lose the old backups.
Soooooo I think I am out of options and the only thing I can do is as you say and start again.

Import stand-alone time machine backups to OS X server?

Can I import stand-alone (direct connect) Time Machine backups into OS X server Time Machine services so I can see & use them?

Local backups are stored in a folder. Network backups are stored in a folder on a disk image. In theory, you could start a network backup and then replace the folder with a copy from another device, but in practice copying TM backups doesn't work very well, if at all. It makes more sense to set the old backup drive(s) aside until you're sure you'll no longer need the data, then erase them and start over. Meanwhile start new backups over the network, if that's what you want to do.

Time Machine Backup Not Performed (OSX Server)

On a newly installed 10.6.4 OSX Server (MiniServer hardware), I am trying to do a Time Machine backup to a freshly formatted external FW drive (GUID Partition map). Whenever I attempt a first backup I get a dialog:
"The backup was not performed because an error occurred while copying files to the hard disk. The problem may be temporary, try again later."
Disk Utility can find no problem on the drive. Repaired permissions, and verified both disks (Boot and Data) to be backed up.
Yes, the server is running and AFP is on.
I excluded the boot volume from Time Machine, and the Data drive seems to be backing up fine- so it's only the boot volume that is having a problem.
Can the Boot drive of a server be backed up with Time Machine?
(Both drives get cloned every night, as well as Time Machine and offsite Retrospect backups.)
Thanks.

See #C3 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum). It will show you how to locate the message(s) that describe the problem, then help you fix it.
If that doesn't help, post back with details, including all the messages, your setup (especially the destination for the backups), what you've done, and the results.
Can the Boot drive of a server be backed up with Time Machine?
Yes.

Time Machine backups to OS X Server intermittently failing with error 21

I have a Mac Mini running OS X Server, with two USB drives connected and selected within OS X Server as Time Machine backup destinations. I have an iMac and a Macbook Air, both of which are using Time Machine to backup themselves up to the Time Machine Service on the server (all are running the latest version of Mavericks).
Intermittently, the iMac backup fails. The iMac's console log shows:
Aug 23 13:55:34 Nigels-iMac.local com.apple.backupd[15418]: Failed to eject volume /Volumes/Backups-1 (FSVolumeRefNum: -141; status: -47; dissenting pid: 0)

Aug 23 13:58:16 Nigels-iMac.local com.apple.backupd[15418]: Backup failed with error 21: 21
The Mac Mini console log shows nothing apparently wrong.
Restarting the server (not the iMac) clears the problem and the iMac will then once again backup to the server for some time (e.g. a day).
There are two USB drives, one for each backup sparse bundle and although the two disks have different names in the Finder, OS X Server has named them both Backup (one is shown as 'Backup' and the other as 'Backup-1' in the Time Machine Services Backups tab).
I am wondering whether the failure occurs when coincidentally the iMac and the Macbook both try to back up at the same moment. Any advice about how to isolate the problem, or a solution would be gratefully received!

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test, to be carried out on the server. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off merely by the seeming complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can read it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

Time Machine backups to OS X Server 10.8 fail with "The backup disk image "Volumes/Backup6/macname.sparsebundle" is already in use" Error

Connecting about 100 Macs running Mavericks and about half of them are getting "The backup disk image "Volumes/Backup6/macname.sparsebundle" is already in use" error.
Screenshot -
https://www.evernote.com/shard/s87/sh/d03288e2-4ad7-4466-957b-2b9b4fcdea55/71afa 07540fd89e5f9a7eabfc96b4f1e
This was happening with our 10.8 environment and when we migrated to Mavericks, I rebuilt the OS X MacMini Server. Seems worse now with 10.9
Most discussions advise in restarting TimeCapsule or network device. However restarting OS X Server everyday is not a solution. Any advice in resolving this issue is appreciated.
Thanks! Corbin

I also had to restart the server and client after applying the "fix" I described above. Basically, no user should have multiple, simultaneous file sharing sessions on the server. But even clearing the user sessions does not resolve the problem beyond the next Time Machine backup, so I also tried disabling and enabling file sharing, but the problem also returns after doing this. Only restarting both the client and server after clearing the sessions has worked for me when I have this problem. The problem may return much later, but this work aroudn definitely works as a temporary solution.
Next time I encounter this problem I will try restarting just the server or just the client, because it is unlikely that the problem exists due to something on both systems. Server 3.x is definitely not as stable as it should be, but for my use, it is getting the job done.

Time machine backup problem with company backup.

I have serious problems with making backups of our company computers by Time Machine.
We have Synology NAS with Time Machine Support. When I made setting for Time Machine backups (users, shares, quotas, etc. ) ewerything worked fine. All Time machines uses one directory, that appears on the network like a Time capsule. Machines have their own accounts with quotas etc. After a few days started many problems. Some Time Machines has missed their target sparsebundles and unsuccessfully tried write into some others. After Time Machine restart and new manual setting problem persisting. Only successfull solution is complete remove all affected sparsebundles (miss all older backups) and make new ones. This problems appears on many different computers with various OSX version 10.6 - 10.8.
Can you help me with this problem?

I have used OS X Server on an Xserve and gained the impression that it did little that OS X would not do. Earlier versions had a fairly easy to use GUI but as it developed it became more tedious and unreliable than using OS X on the same hardware. It was far from cheap for unlimited users even with educational discounts.
At one time OS X Server was more advanced than the same version number OS X - about half a version ahead.
I am not saying that it may not be faster to set up if you have had previous OS X Server experience but it is a steep learning curve after only OS X experience. The average user would get there faster with one of the many tutorials on the web about using OS X as a server.
At one time OS X Server had a security bug in that it confused FTP root with machine root under some conditions leaving the whole disk open to the public.

Time Machine Backup Problem with OS X 10.9.4

I am having a problem with the Time Machine backup on a MacBook Pro 2.6 running OS X 10.9.4. What is happening is it starts the backup and then gets to a certain point and just freezes indefinitely at that point. (Indefinitely meaning overnight >12 hrs) I deleted the sparsebundle file and restarted the backup and it essentially freezes at the same point. It's like there's a particular file it has an issue with. Is there a way to tell what file it's backing up when it freezes so I can exclude it from the backup. I initially thought it was a Time Capsule and backing up over the network issue. I acquired a USB 3 Seagate drive and tried using it with the same result. So, the issue has nothing to do with the Maverick network "qwerks" I've seen referenced.
My initial backup size is about 250 GB. I've pared that back by excluding the Parallels Virtual Machines on the hard drive and my IPhoto Library. That scales the back up size to about 55 GB.   Before I did the file exclusion it was hanging up at 1.83 GB out of ~250GB. Now it's hanging up at 1.82 GB out of ~55 GB. So it's as if it is reaching some file it has an issue with and stopping.
Any thoughts?

Help! Time Machine Restore Problem From Leopard Server

Hi All,
I just did something dumb with my iMac running 10.6.4 and need to restore all data from my time machine backup.
I have a mac mini running Mac OS X Server 10.5.8 which has a time machine volume on an external USB drive.
I have reinstalled 10.6.4 on the iMac and tried running Migration Assistant to transfer information from a Time Machine backup. I am able to log in to the Time Machine volume successfully but I immediately get an error:
"The Connection Failed"
I have also tried booting into and restoring from the Snow Leopard DVD and get the same results.
I am reluctant to attempt to configure Time Machine for fear that it'll somehow overwrite the backup I have. I do not want to mess with the permissions on the TM backup in order to clone the backup in advance of configuring TM before I get some advice.
Please help! Lost a lot of sleep last night and my wife is very upset.
Below are some console log errors that indicate something is wrong, but google does not turn up anything concrete on the keywords:

I do have an extra external drive that I can copy this file to, by assigning permissions, but am not sure about how TM hides and secures the files needed. I'm worried about messing up the only copy I have of this data.
Don't change anything in the backups. Ever.
Your best bet may be to do a full system restore of the desired backup from the server to the USB drive; then you should be able to boot the iMac from that.
But if you want to copy the backups, you'll have to be logged-on to the server with an account that has permission to copy the sparse bundle.
If you copy just the desired backup, instead of the whole sparse bundle, it won't be recognized as a Time Machine backup, but might work with either +Setup Assistant+ or +Migration Assistant.+

Old Time Machine Backup Problems - Permissions

Today, I figured out how to access my iPhoto Library photos from my old Time Machine backups. I was SO happy! The backups were from 2011 and earlier (hardrive crashed in May 2012). I had not done a Time Machine backup since 2011, so I decided to do a new backup today. After the backup finished, I decided to look at my old photos again (in the old backups) and when I tried to click on any of the files in the old backups, I get the message: The folder “Pictures” can’t be opened because you don’t have permission to see its contents.
Of course, now I am crushed/frustrated because I do not understand why I cannot access the old backups anymore. *Note: the new backup is accessible.

No problem.
You probably need to use Browse Other Time Machine Disks and within that older backup go to User/Pictures and restore the file "iPhoto Library" to a separate folder on your drive (so as not to replace your current iPhoto library) and then look in that restored photo library.
You need to do this in the Time Machine "Star Wars" interface from "Browse Other...."

Time machine backup problem with new MacPro

On my new MacPro (6 core, 32gb, 1TB ssd) I am trying to do my initial Time Machine backup. The MacPro has 350 GB of files on it. When I start Time Machine it shows that it is backing up 355 GB of data onto the 4 TB LaCie drive and the time to complete is about 20 minutes. (The extrnal HD is excluded from the backup list). When it nears the end of the 355 gb backup all of a sudden it just starts increasing both the number of gbs copying and number of gbs left to copy (both numbers just start going up incrementally together) way beyond the initial 355 gbs - I've stopped it at 910 GBs several times. Tried different external hard drives, restarts etc.
Any ideas what is going on?
Thanks

Time Machine backup problem. Stuck indexing 101. Any suggestions?

Hi
I am having trouble with my Time Machine backup and would be grateful for your help.
I have downloaded the widget and copied the script below.
Time Machine has been operating without issue since bought, around a year ago.
The last backup was 18th May. Nothing comes to mind that may have triggered a change on that date.
I placed the "My Book" backup volume in the private folder for Spotlight.
The indexing process has been running without interruption for over 24 hours.
The backup drive is connected via USB
I have changed the USB port to ensure the connection is sound, which it appears to be
Starting standard backup
Backing up to: /Volumes/My Book/Backups.backupdb
Event store UUIDs don't match for volume: Mac HD
Node requires deep traversal:/ reason:must scan subdirs|new event db|
No pre-backup thinning needed: 12.19 GB requested (including padding), 592.88 GB available
Waiting for index to be ready (101)

I am hoping that the script may help you direct me toward where I should concentrate my efforts.
Many thanks

Time Machine Backup auf OS X Server

Hallo,
bin neu hier und hoffe dass ich in der richtigen Sprache schreibe und hier auch korrekt aufgehoben bin
Nun folgendes: Ich möchte mit einem MacBook Pro ein Backup auf einen Mavericks OS X Server ablegen.
Soweit alles eingerichtet, Time Machine in der Server App konfiguriert, Benutzer erstellt (in der Server App), dem Benutzer die Rechte "Lesen & Schreiben" zugewiesen am Ziel Verzeichnis und am Laptop mit dem Benutzer und Kennwort eingeloggt in Time Machine. Doch es will nicht funktionieren. Wenn ich das Backup erstellen möchte erscheint die Meldung dass mein Benutzername oder Passwort möglicherweise nicht korrekt sind. Aber sie sind richtig eingegeben. Ich könnte auch kein falsches eingeben, weil dann hätte ich nichtmal bis zum Backup Start vorrankommen können. Wenn ich mich als Administrator einlogge funktioniert es ohne zu murren, aber mit dem dafür erstellen Account in der Server App nicht. Im AFP-Fehlerprotokoll erscheint aber auch noch folgendes:
Apr 20 18:54:11 home-server.fritz.box AppleFileServer[2211] <Info>: IP 192.168.1.28 - - "Login xxxxx_laptop" -5023 0 0
Apr 20 18:54:11 home-server.fritz.box AppleFileServer[2211] <Info>: IP 192.168.1.28 - - "Logout xxxxx_laptop" -5023 0 0
Ich kann im Internet nichts zu dem Fehler -5023 finden. Wenn ich es als Admin mache startet das Backup und ich logge mich ein und aus mit -0 0 0.
Hatte mich an den Support gewandt. Lief jetzt auch aber nun nach der kleinsten Änderung will es nicht mehr.
Kann mir jemand vielleicht helfen?
Vielen Dank im Vorraus
Viele Grüße

The logs didn't really help much.
It looks like it's a permissions issues. There are permissions problems with some of the files on the source disk. Here is what I had to do to fix. I'm sure there is an easier way to do it, but this is what worked for me...
1. Deleted all of my sharepoints in Server Preferences
2. As root, changed the permissions to all of the files on my source disk (recursively) to be owned by my main admin user—the one running the backups.
3. Re-created my sharepoints
That worked for me. Hope it helps others.

Time Machine backup on OSX Leopard Server, no user logged in

Hi
I'd like to use Time Machine to do backups of a Mini running OSX Leopard Server. It has a TimeCapsule connected, which it backs up to fine, at the moment.
However, I've been wondering, if it still backs up, if no user is logged in? I've been reading a few old tips about making removable drives not dismount, when no user is logged in by adding/modifying a key in /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/autodiskmount.plist, setting AutomountDisksWithoutUserLogin to true.
Is this still nescessary?
Is TimeMachine actually running when no user is logged in?
Is it a good idea to set the key, if my users homedirs is on a removable drive too?
If TimeMachine is NOT the way to do it, which way is the best/smartest?
Best regards
Nicolai

HT3275 Time machine backup problem

When Time Capsule runs the regularly scheduled backup I get a message that reads "Time Machine could not complete the backup.
The backup disk image “/Volumes/Data/myusername's iMac (3).sparsebundle” is already in use." If I click on the Time Capsule app it runs for awhile but doesn't connect and shows the message "The operation can’t be completed. An unexpected error occurred (error code -6584)." Last successful backup is shown as 9/25/13.
Any suggestions on how to restore the backup program so that it runs successfully?
Thanks,

You have two different errors there.
The already in use is the most common.. that just means the TC connection to the computer has broken down.. a simple reboot of the TC is enough usually to get things going.. but see C12 for more details.
http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
I would do a full network restart in correct order.. so with everything powered off.. turn on
Modem.. wait 2min
TC.. wait 2min (any other network clobber like switch or EOP adapters, in order they appear by connection)
Computers etc.
No luck you also have a possible backup corruption.. 6584 is a serious error.
Do a disk verify.. see A5.
If that passes but you still have problems the best solution is to wipe the TC via airport utility.. erase.. you only need a fast erase and do a fresh clean backup.
