TM trying to backup my 400GB Windows share whenever I connect to it.

Is there a way I can add the network location to the exclude list. Now if had more than 100GB free on my External HDD this would be really cool.
Thanks for any help!

Try deleting your last backup by turning off iCloud Backup in Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup, then tap Manage Storage, swipe across your backup and tap Delete, then go back and turn iCloud Backup back on again.  If it still won't back up, you may have an app that is preventing the backup from succeeding.  To locate which one, go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of your device under Backups, under Backup Options tap Show All Apps, then turn them all to Off (including camera roll) and try backing up again.  If it succeeds, then the camera roll and/or one of your apps is preventing the backup and you'll have to located by process of elimination. Turn the camera roll On and try backing up again.  If it succeeds, turn some of your apps to On and try backing up again.  If it succeeds again, turn some more apps to On then try again; repeat this process until it fails.  Eventually you'll be able to locate the problem app and exclude it from your backup.

  • Error 2155348249 When trying to backup systemstate on windows 2008 using windowsserverbackup

    Hello
    I have Windows 2008 standard R2. Whenever I tried to backup systemstate via windowserverbackup, it failed and gave me event 521 and error 2155348249 and saying there is not enough space to create vss.....
    However, if I did backup other folders, it went though fine.  I have lot of free diskspace on C.  I couldn't find any solution on web.  I increased vssadmin shadowstorage, and no help.
    Any ideas?

    Thanks for response.   I checked and found the system volume size is 100MB.  All I found from log is file is etl extenstion.  I used tracerpt to convert to txt file and find the content like below

    The same info keeps repeating over and over.  I don't think I get any useful information from this log. I am totally lost now.  
    I still couldn't backup systemstate.  I have another identical server and the backup for systemstate work fines.  All partitions on both servers are the same.  It's so strange.

  • Timemachine Succesfully backing up to SMB windows share

    Hi After much googling a post on this page
    http://forum.dsmg600.info/viewtopic.php?pid=7395#p7395
    states the following command allows timemachine to backup to any mounted network share, and they are correct. I am succesfully running my 1st backup to a Windows share over SMB. Will keep you posted on how it goes. But here is the command:
    defaults write com.apple.systempreferences TMShowUnsupportedNetworkVolumes 1

    I have been running Time Machine on an network SMB mounted partition for a couple of weeks (using the trick where you disabled the time machine disk check
    defaults write com.apple.systempreferences TMShowUnsupportedNetworkVolumes 1)...
    I know it was a bad idea... but I have plenty of SMB space available at my lab, while no real hard disk (until today )
    Everything went fine until today, where finally the disk filled up... and I got this in the console

    Do you see where I am coming? this is already scary... it deleted ALL but one backups, without recovering one byte... Jez... without a warning (despite the check box in the TM pref option pane)
    Look at this:
    [zig:~] felix% mount
    /dev/disk0s2 on / (hfs, local, journaled)
    devfs on /dev (devfs, local)
    fdesc on /dev (fdesc, union)
    map -hosts on /net (autofs, automounted)
    map auto_home on /home (autofs, automounted)
    //[email protected]/local/users/felix on /Volumes/felix (smbfs, nodev, nosuid, mounted by felix)
    This is the SMB partition:
    [zig:~] felix% df -g /Volumes/felix/
    Filesystem 1G-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on
    //[email protected]/local/users/felix 66 63 3 96% /Volumes/felix
    [zig:~] felix% ls /Volumes/felix/
    Zig_0017f2c89d46.sparsebundle/
    [zig:~] felix%
    <here I mounted the sparsebundle image using the finder>
    [zig:~] felix% mount
    /dev/disk0s2 on / (hfs, local, journaled)
    devfs on /dev (devfs, local)
    fdesc on /dev (fdesc, union)
    map -hosts on /net (autofs, automounted)
    map auto_home on /home (autofs, automounted)
    //[email protected]/local/users/felix on /Volumes/felix (smbfs, nodev, nosuid, mounted by felix)
    /dev/disk2s2 on /Volumes/Backup of Zig (hfs, local, nodev, nosuid, journaled, mounted by felix)
    [zig:~] felix% df -g /Volumes/Backup\ of\ Zig/
    Filesystem 1G-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on
    /dev/disk2s2 132 129 3 98% /Volumes/Backup of Zig
    So the Backup partition pretend to use 129 Gig (weird as its containing SMB partition is 66 Gig big) and 3 Gig left...
    [zig:~] felix% cd /Volumes/Backup\ of\ Zig/
    [zig:/Volumes/Backup of Zig] felix% ls
    Backups.backupdb/
    [zig:/Volumes/Backup of Zig] felix% ls Backups.backupdb/
    Zig/
    [zig:/Volumes/Backup of Zig] felix% ls Backups.backupdb/Zig/
    2007-11-20-141210/ 2007-11-20-151041.inProgress/ Latest@
    [zig:/Volumes/Backup of Zig] felix% sudo du -sk .
    Password:
    35637816 .
    But all the files on this partition amount to 35 gigs... (which is indead more or less the size of one backup)... where are the other 31 gig gone? My explanation is that the space has not been properly recovered after the old backups deletion... (which indeed also explains why backupd deleted ALL but one backups)
    In any case, I would advise any SMB mounted partition Time Machine user to NOT rely completely on those backup. I will try to see if one can recover the space in a sparsebundle image... but even so, it makes the whole process dangerous.
    You have been warned...
    Moreover:
    [zig:/Volumes/felix] felix% hdiutil compact Zig_0017f2c89d46.sparsebundle
    Starting to compactâ¦
    Reclaiming free spaceâ¦
    Finishing compactionâ¦
    Reclaimed 19.5 GB out of 97.9 GB possible.
    [zig:/Volumes/felix] felix% df -g .
    Filesystem 1G-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on
    //[email protected]/local/users/felix 66 43 22 66% /Volumes/felix
    [zig:/Volumes/felix] felix%
    Note that I only recover (by hand) 22 gig while 31 should be available... but this is explained in man hdiutil:
    "For SPARSEBUNDLE images, completely unused band files are simply removed."
    Completely... so Iguess only 22 gig of bands were free 9 gigas are in band which are partially used by good data.
    [zig:/Volumes/felix] felix% cd /Volumes/Backup\ of\ Zig/
    [zig:/Volumes/Backup of Zig] felix% df -g .
    Filesystem 1G-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on
    /dev/disk2s2 132 109 22 83% /Volumes/Backup of Zig
    [zig:/Volumes/Backup of Zig] felix%
    So the space has been indeed returned to the SMB volume... and I was able to restart TM after that and complete a backup...
    In any case, I say it again... do not rely on SMB mounted partition based TM backup.
    As for me, I am ordering a 200 gig external HD :-D

  • Accessing Windows Shares

    There are several windows shares on the network that I have access to through my Macbook Pro. However, when someone adds a file to one of them, I do not see the file right away when I try to access the share. I have tried reconnecting to it multiple times but still do not see the file. The only solution I found that works is 'rebooting', which I should not have to do. Looks like there is some caching going on somewhere. Anyone have ideas on how to get access to the 'latest' files?

    Have you tried simply disconnecting from the Windows share and reconnecting? Rebooting may be overkill
    The Mac network browser seems to be relatively static or lazy, and often needs a bit of prodding to recognize changes on the other systems, esp. a Windows share.
    I would not call it a bug, but it is something to be aware of.
    Sometimes the Windows share on my Mac remains in the Finder window long after I have shut down the Windows box.

  • Smbntefs probelm accessing windows shares

    Hello,
    I followed the wiki guide about smbnetfs and the output informations after smbnetfs installation. The shares are automatically mounted in /mnt/smbnet and I can see them,
    but when i double click a share
    (through Thunar - Xfce4) I take the following message:
    Failed to open directory "PC_SHARE"
    Software caused connection abort
    Is the problem caused because of file permissions?
    Can anyone tell me in detail what chmod I have to do and where?
    Also which files must be in ~/.smb? (and the permissions of that folder)
    (At the past I had no problem accessing the shares with the same tool and without conserning about the permissions of that folders)

  • Cannot access windows shares with NTFS junction points

    Hi,
    I upgraded to Mavericks and now I cannot access Windows shared where the folders are access through NTFS junction points. (NTFS junction points are like symbolic links to files/folders).
    Regular shares are working fine and these shares are working on Windows PC's. I also tried before and after on another Mac Mini I have, so is definitatley something to do with upgrading to Mavericks.
    Thanks in advance
    A.

    This is related to Apple's new SMB2 implementation in Mavericks.
    Instead of connecting to your Windows share via SMB, connect via CFIS.  Note that I had to disconnect from Windows share, restart, and then reconnect with CFIS to get the NTFS junction points to work.
    From ZDNet:
    You can also try forcing Mavericks to use the older SMB variant, Common Internet File System (CIFS). To do this, simply edit your server connection URL so that it uses CIFS. Use the Finder to choose the "Go" menu and select "Connect to Server..." (or just use command-K) and type "cifs://YourServerName" and hit Return; the server should mount. If it doesn't, try entering the share's designation as well, e.g. "cifs://YourServerName/YourDriveName."
    [BE SURE TO RESTART AFTER DISCONNECTING FROM SMB SHARES AND BEFORE THE CFIS CONNECT TO MAKE SURE ALL ACCESS THREADS CLOSE!]

  • Windows Shares in finder

    Having two problems in finder:
    1. The windows shares listed in finder continue to show even when the network adapter is shut down or the computer resumes after hybernation connecting to another network, this doesn't seem to refresh
    2. Windows shares hand on "connecting..." after resuming. The only way I have been able to reset is by a complete machine restart. Restarting just finder does not work.
    Thanks
    Guy

    I have no windows computers on my network at the moment so cannot test this but the common ports for windows sharing are
    137 UDP Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) - -
    138 UDP NETBIOS Datagram Service
    139 TCP Server Message Block (SMB)
    445 TCP Microsoft SMB Domain
    You could block these ports in your macs firewall but this may prevent you from connecting to windows sharepoints.
    If your not familiar with configuring IPFW to configure the firewall then I would suggest you have look at Waterroof

  • Windows Shares Usually Not Present

    I have a home network with 2 Windows Vista PCs and a Macbook. One of the PCs my Macbook is connected wirelessly. The printer I wish to use is connected to the remaining wired PC. The Vista computers can see each other's shares including files and printers perfectly. My Mac, on the other hand, rarely shows Windows computers on the left panel of the Finder. I am able to connect to the desired windows share by using "Connect to Folder" and entering smb://192.168.x.x. I suppose this works, but this isn't really an elegant solution and I cannot use any printer shares.
    So, why doesn't my Windows shares show in the Finder all the time?

    Not a SMB guru, but this thread might help:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1322993&tstart=15
    There are a bunch of others, so searching might bring some answers too. I did a quick search in the Help menu for "Connect Windows" and found one titled "If a Windows computer doesn’t appear in the Network browser" that might help. Good luck...

  • Possible to share my internet connection os x lion to iphone 4s

    Trying to use bluetooth PAN to share my ethernet connection on my macbook pro running Lion
    TIA
    Kevin

    I'm sure it is possible, but that would be a question for a forum delaing with the operating system on your laptop which you neglected to mention.
    Assuming its Windows for instance this seems to be what you want:
    http://www.sevenforums.com/network-sharing/78515-share-internet-via-bluetooth.ht ml
    Basically The Sharing would be done first from the Laptop, and the connection to the iPad would just be bluetooth pairing which would be done through the Bluetooth settings in Settings.
    If its Mac possibly this would work for you
    http://kiskeyix.org/articles/552
    Again it will vary depending on the operating system on your Laptop.

  • "Windows Backup cannot read the backup destination" when trying to backup to Backup Once to Samba share on NAS

    Environment:
    Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials running in VirtualBox in a Windows 7 host. Networking is configured and works fine.
    Background:
    My only backup needs are to copy the contents of two folders to a NAS folder every day at 2 AM.
    I configured a backup schedule in Windows Server Backup (wbadmin) to a network location which is hosted as a Samba share on a Synology NAS.
    For authentication, I created a backup user which has the same username and password as a user on the Samba share, with permission to read and write the backup folder. I added this user to the Backup Operators group.
    Problem:
    When I try to run the Backup Once operation to test my backup, I get the following error message:
    "Windows Backup cannot read the backup destination."
    What I've tried:
    I verified that the location is directly accessible in Windows by copying and pasting the address from the Windows Server Backup destination into explorer. Providing the backup user credentials opened the location and creating/reading files worked fine.
    Adding the backup user to the Administrators group did not have an effect.
    Update 2014-02-18
    I checked the backup destination and was surprised to find that the scheduled backup actually completes successfully.
    However, Backup Once always results in the above error message.
    So the problem is confined to the "Backup Once" operation.

  • Time Machine backup to Windows Share Now Failing Verify

    Hi Everyone - I have searched everywhere and can't find any help.
    This is my situation. I have my TM backup to an SMB windows share and its been working fine for months. Two things changed recently: a) I installed Windows 7 on my windows box and b) I installed that TM update that provides greater reliability. Backups worked fine for weeks after both of these changes, but just this week backups failed and TM wanted to create a new backup. I tried to recreate a new backup, but it keeps failing with errors below. When I try to run a verify disk on the sparsebundle (with disk util) I always get errors, but of course, I can not fix the errors when the sparsebundle is on an SMB. I am currently running a chkdsk on the windows drive, but I don't think its damaged.

    Anyone encounter this? I essentially can not use TM right now. Could the TM update and/or windows 7 upgrade be a contributor? Any help is much appreciated.

    Is that a "supported" destination? According to this Apple article: Disks that can be used with Time Machine
    *+If your backup disk is on a network, the network server must use Apple File Protocol (AFP) file sharing, and both your computer, and the networked backup disk, should have Mac OS X 10.5.6 or later.*+

    It appears to have finished the actual backup (two passes).

    Then has a problem; apparently unable to delete the thread record, although listed 3rd, seems to be where it choked.

    And can't fix it on remount.

  • Moutain Lion Time Machine Backup To WHS 2011 Via Disk Utility Image On Windows Share?

    I read that with Lion you could do a Time Machine backup to a network share on Windows Home Server 2011.  I read you could create a image file via Disk Utility that would be placed on the network share, but mounted as a regular disk in Mac.   I think I read this method no longer works on Moutain Lion though.  Has anyone tried it?   I'm setting up a new Mac Mini and would like to do time machine backups to my WHS 2011 drivepool.    If it is possible great, any way to use the backup for bare metal restores as well? (ether across the network, or putting that image file on a usb drive first etc)    I use bootcamp to go back and forth on my Mac Mini, but I'd like to keep things backed up on the Mac side via standard time machine.

    I re-googled and found something I read about a few days ago that shows how it was done in Lion:
    http://basilsalad.com/how-to/create-time-machine-backup-network-drive-lion/
    I think maybe I found someone that tells how to do it:
    http://www.jamesbadger.ca/2012/09/12/mountain-lion-time-machine-over-afp-auto-mo unt-edition/
    The question is, how do I use this backup for a baremetal restore then?   I'm assuming I would do a generic Mountain Lion restore, and then just restore over the network after I manually re-mount the image again first.
    Does this sound like a real option/solution?  Looks like maybe I answered my own question, but I'd like to hear anyone else confirm it works and is worth trying.
    So my goal is to do a time machine backup over the network to a windows machine.
    If it's not possible, I guess I'll have to break down and plug in an external USB drive, but I'd still like to know if it's possible for another friend as well.
