Solution 1) Permanently disable WINRE so a snapshot is not attempted on the recovery partition when Windows image backup (BMR) is taken.
a) open an administrative command prompt.
b) Run: reagentc /disable
c) BMR backups will now succeed. To enable WINRE again run: reagentc /enable
this happens on a gen2 vm because the image file is larger than a gen1 image.

Windows Server 2012 R2 print issues

We are using terminal server with Windows Server 2012 R2. Our users are using Windows 7 Embedded thin clients with MSTSC RDP 8.0. We are using network printers.
There is problem with printing from Adobe Reader. We are using Adobe Reader 11.0.06. Sometimes users cannot print from Adobe Reader with error message "Printer not found" even though we can print on same printer from other software. This problem can be solved by relogging user, but in our enterprise environment, this is not acceptable solution.
Thanks for your help.

I had the same issue with another Canon UFRII that was not on the network. Canon has some monitor software that attempts to query the device and this threw back Invalid Parameter when the device did not exist. Is your device on the network?

Failure to create a shared protection point during Windows Server 2012 R2 backup.

Several partitions on a system disk have been extended as well as the backup destination partition. After that Windows Server 2012 R2 failed the backup of a system disk with the following error message 0x8004230C. The Server stated it had failed to create
a shared protection point on source volumes and indicated a problem with volume shadow writer. What needs to be done to fix this error and does it have anything to do with partitions being extended?

Hi,
What destination did you use to do the previous unsuccessful backup? You could try the steps in the article below to troubleshoot errors where the cause is reported by an underlying layer to Windows Server Backup.

Windows Server 2012 R2 Backups have the wrong time

Because of serious problems with Server 2012R2 and the fact it activates without permission and support is absolute garbage, I made Windows Server Backups at various stages of the install so I would not have to start the install again from scratch,
however the times of the backups when attempting a restore are around 11 hours earlier than the time they where actually made and the time of creation that is shown in the Windows Backup program.

Hi,
I’m a little unclear about your question. Would you please give an example of the issue?
In additional, please check if the thread below is helpful.

Windows Server 2012 R2 Backup problem

I'm unable to backup a client PC It repeatedly says there is insufficient space but the Volume is 3Tb with only about 150Gb used for Server folders. Looking at other reports one solution is to add a further volume but I have no more space and it's
why I bought a 3Tb HDD. A fix for that was promised in 2012. Can someone please point me to it? The 3 individual volumes on the client computer all have ample space on them for Shadow copy. WHS 2011 didn't have this problem. Thank
you

Do you have a copy of the backup log?

Windows server 2012 R2 clustering issue with disks

we have a two node cluster
we have volumes configurred on both the clusters.we are using EVA san storage.
Data(C:\ClusterStorage\Volume1)
Logs(C:\ClusterStorage\Volume2)
i am able to change/move Clustered disk drives from owner node A to Owner node B.I cannot see the clustered drives on both active/passive nodes.
i am also not able to view the volumes on node b in the windows explorer.Can someone please tell me how to look at the volumes once we move between the drives on the cluster.
Thank you
lucky

Since you are showing us that you have configured Cluster Shared Volumes, that means there are no volumes to be seen in Windows Explorer. This is expected behavior. When you create Cluster Shared Volumes, the cluster software creates reparse
or mount points for the volumes. That is what the C:\ClusterStorage\Volumex is - it is pointing to the actual volume. When you want to use storage, you need to point to C:\ClusterStorage\Volumex and whatever subdirectory you create for the location.
CSVs are not meant to be used by all applications. They were initially designed for Hyper-V. But that is not how you would set up you cluster if you want to offer a something like a regular file share.

Hello,

As I mentioned in the title am facing a problem with windows server 2012 standard.
Issue: server timing is getting change automatically and at the same time other client cannot able to access the data and application, since that server has primary domain controller.
kindly consider this as high priority and do the needful.

Windows Server Backup scheduled task run successfully but backup do not start (not running) on Windows Server 2012

Hi,
A backup job has been setup on Windows Server 2012 (Platform: Win32NT; ServicePack: ; Version: 6.2.9200.0; VersionString : Microsoft Windows NT 6.2.9200.0) via Windows Backup Software UI (Local Backup 1.0).
It is appearing as a scheduled task "\Microsoft\Windows\Backup\Microsoft-Windows-WindowsBackup" belonging to user 'nt authority\system' in task scheduler.
The problem is that the Backup job never start despite the scheduled task running and completing successfully (when run automatically or manually)!
Would you be able to explain why and assist in resolving that issue?
Here is what we know:
When the backup is run manually via the Windows Backup Software UI, it works fine.
When the backup is run via command line (as set in schedule task) in a cmd command prompt (as local/domain 'administrator' or as 'nt authority\system' which is possible by running command prompt via 'PsExec.exe -i -s cmd'), something like "%windir%\System32\wbadmin.exe
start backup -templateId:{f11eb3aa-74e7-4ff4-a57b-d8d567ee3f77} -quiet", it works fine.
If you manually run the preset scheduled task while logged in as administrator, the task run and complete successfully but the backup job does not start.
Idem if you schedule task is run automatically at scheduled time.
The schedule task run and complete successfully but the backup job does not start.
It is confirmed by running the following in a command prompt as 'nt authority\system':
schtasks /run /tn "\Microsoft\Windows\Backup\Microsoft-Windows-WindowsBackup"
SUCCESS: Attempted to run the scheduled task "\Microsoft\Windows\Backup\Microsoft-Windows-WindowsBackup".
Despite success result, the Backup job does not start running...
No errors or warning appears anywhere in Event Logs (Microsoft > Windows > Backup or Task Scheduler) nor in the scheduled task History tab. The schedule task complete successfully but no Backup job is run...
If scheduled task automatically set by Windows Backup software is duplicated (copied) and set manually it runs fine as 'administrator' and as 'nt authority\system' (subject that 'nt authority\system' is added to the 'Backup Operators' AD group).
Here is an export of the current pre-set schedule task, is there any settings that need to be changed to make it works?

Thank you in advance for your feedback.

Once again, the issue is not to run the backup manually from the command line but to have it run via the scheduled task setup by the Windows Backup software.
By default, the schedule task is to be run as NT Authority\System, and when run under this account, the backup does not start (even though account is member of Backup Operators) and job can manually be run via elevated command prompt. This is not a normal
behavior and constitute a major bug in Windows Server 2012.
From my understanding the NT Authority\System account is a built-in account from Windows that should by default be part of the Administrators group (built-in) even though it does not explicitly appears like it in AD by default.
This account shall have by default Administrators rights and Backup Operators rights (via the Administrators group) without being explicitly added to those groups (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/windows/desktop/ms684190%28v=vs.85%29.aspx). By design
it is supposed to be the most powerful account which has unrestricted access to all local system resources. If that is not the case (as it seems) then this would constitute a major bug in Windows Server 2012 edition.
As said previously and as you confirmed, currently by default NT Authority\System on Windows 2012 server cannot start backup manually via an elevated command prompt unless it is manually added to Backup Operators (or Administrators) group. But wouldn't that
constitute a bug of Windows Server 2012?
Our server has not yet been restarted since I added NT Authority\System account to the Administrators group explicitly manually so I cannot yet confirmed it would sort the issue. Indeed it is heavily in use so cannot easily be restarted. Will confirm when
done.
We also have an additional problem where after a while of last reboot, part of the Exchange ECP can no longer be properly loaded in the web browser due to compilation error (compilation is done via NT Authority\System account which seems to no longer have
sufficient right to compile .NET code). What is strange is that it works at first and then stop working at some point... I am hopeful that adding NT Authority\System to the Administrators group would sort this issue as well but once again, that shall not be
needed!!!
Could a Windows Server 2012 update introduced some security policy changes or else that prevent NT Authority\System to have full power?

[Forum FAQ] Introduce Backup in Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials

Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials provides reliable ways to perform regular backups of your server and backups of your network computers.
1. Server Backup
Description:
Backs up your server running Windows Server Essentials. The data is backed up to an external USB drive. You can also perform full system restore of server.
Operations:
On Dashboard, please select DEVICES and then navigate to the server which you need to backup. Right click the server and select Set up backup. When set up complete, you will be able to
Start a backup for the server. (Figure 1)
Figure 1
More information:
Manage server backup in Windows Server Essentials
Restore or repair your server running Windows Server Essentials

3. Microsoft Azure Backup
Descriptions:
Performs an online backup of files or folders on your server. When you use Azure Backup to back up server data, the information is encrypted by using your passphrase before it is uploaded to a secure datacenter on the Internet.
Operations:
1) Open Dashboard and follow the path: HOME-> Get Started-> ADD-INS-> Integrate with Windows Azure Backup. Then as Figure 3 shows, you need to “Click to sign up for Windows Azure Backup” and “Click to download Windows Azure
Backup integration module”.
Figure 3
Please note: when you click to download, you may encounter the issue as Figure 4 shows. If so, please follow the path:
Tools-> Internet Options-> Security->
Trusted sites-> Add this website to the zone and add
http://downlaod.microsoft.com,
https://activedirectory.windowsazure.com in Trusted sites in IE. (Please uncheck
Require server verification (https:) for all sites in this zone). Then please check if you can download as normal.
Figure 4
2) After you download the OnlineBackupAddin, please run it. Then begin to install the add-in. (if any issue occurs in your installation of add-in, please navigate to C:\PrgramData\Microsoft\Windows Server\Logs folder and check
InstallAddin log file if you can find some clues.)
3) During your installation, KB 2873390 may be required. Please download the update package and run it. Then Windows Azure Backup Agent Upgrade Wizard appeared. Please follow it and complete as Figure 5
and Figure 6 show.
Figure 5
Figure 6
4) Then please re-open Dashboard, you will find ONLINE BACKUP option. (Figure 7) There will be three steps that you need to do: (i)
Upload a certificate. (ii) Register your server.
(iii) Configure backup settings.
Figure 7
(i). Upload a certificate. (In this example, we use the second option: Upload certificate to Windows Azure Backup vault)
Please logon Windows Azure, select RECOVERY SERVICES and click
NEW. Follow the path: RECOVERY SERVICES-> BACKUP VAULT->
QUICK CREATE. Please type NAME and select
REGION, then click CREATE VAULT. When create completes, please click the name of this new recovery service that you create. As Figure 8 shows. Then select Manage Certificate to add or update the certificate file (.cer) that contains
a public key for the vault. The certificate is used to register servers with the vault.
Figure 8
(ii). Register your server
On Dashboard, navigate to Online Backup and click Register. (Figure 9)
Figure 9
Then it will check the certificate. And then you need to set a passphrase to secure your data. (Figure 10)
Figure 10
When you set passphrase complete, please click Next to continue. When register successfully. You will see Figure 11.
Figure 11
(iii). Configure backup settings
When register completes, please click Configure Online Backup. Then you can follow the Configure Online Backup wizard to configure online backup (add folders), specify the backup schedule, specify the backup retention policy and choose bandwidth usage. The
all process will be shown in Figure 12-16.
Figure 12
Figure 13
Figure 14
Figure 15
Figure 16
After all configurations complete, you will be able to see that the server integrates with Windows Azure Backup. (Figure 17)
Figure 17
On the Dashboard in server essentials, you will be able to start backup online. (Figure 18)
Figure 18
After backup online, you will see the protected data as Figure 19 and Figure 20 show in Dashboard and Windows Azure.

Windows Server 2012 Windows Backup failed with following error code '0x8078006B' (Windows Backup failed to create the shared protection point on the source volumes.).

The Volume Shadow Copy service initially was running under the context of System, so we thought that ‘System’ doesn’t have permissions to access network shares.
When the Volume Shadow Copy service was running under the context of System, this was the error logged:
“failed with following error code '0x8078014B' (There was a failure in creating a directory on the backup storage location.).”
Which is likely due to not having permissions to write to the network location.
This is a scheduled backup trying to write to a network location, so we changes the service to run under the context of an account that does have permissions to write to the network share.
  Then the error changed to this:
“failed with following error code '0x8078006B' (Windows Backup failed to create the shared protection point on the source volumes.).”

We aren’t really seeing anything that gives any hint on what the issue is.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

We are trying to back up folders/files from 2 local drives (C: & D:), both of which have only 10% space used, and 100 GB free.
We are attempting to back the files up to a Remote Shared File (and there is 100+ GB free space out there).
  If we try another network location, we receive the exact same error.
This is Windows Server 2012, not running Hyper-V and is a physical server not a VM.
Thank you for the link.

DPM 2012 R2 - Windows Server 2012 R2 Hyper-v backup of Windows Server 2003 R2 - Non-retryable error 0x80070490

Hi,
I have a hyper-v host running Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard with Hyper-V on it, and on that host I got 5 virtual machines running and of those 5, 4 of those the DPM are able to backup but when DPM tries to backup a server running Windows Server 2003 R2
I get the following errors in the eventlog.

What I have done to try to troubleshoot this issue is:
Reinstalled DPM - No sucess
Restarted the Hyper-v Host - No sucess
I'm at the point where I am out of ideas and google hasn't given me much.

i have the same error.
"vssadmin list writers" shows last error unknown for all writers
disk space is sufficient
ntbackup of systemdrive and systemstate runs fine.
i installed KB940349 which fixes some vss related issues but the problem is still there.
any ideas?
Thanks.
When you have vssadmin reporting unknown error the only way to reset the vsswriters (as I understand it please correct me if I'm wrong :) ) is to restart the machine. The Fellenator is correct, make use that the vsswriter is working correctly since this
is the main function DPM is using when taking backup. He's also right in saying that it's outside the scope! Create a new thread on your error, then you will get much better responce!

Unscheduled additional backups in Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials

I have a strange problem since upgrading to Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials. My server is on a lightly used Home network which I run for two periods totalling 8 hours each day. Whenever the server is re-started it immediately begins a Server Backup;
not a great problem in itself but the 'unscheduled' backups prevent the Scheduled backup from operating and often cannot complete before the next Shut Down controlled by Task Scheduler. I presume that R2 has added an extra trigger for the Backup but I can
only find the trigger for my scheduled once-per-day Backup. Can anyone please point me towards the trigger for these unwanted backups. Thanks in advance. Keith Woolf

Hi,
Please perform a
clean boot to troubleshoot
your issue and check if it caused by other software.
You may collect some backup logs to narrow down this issue. By default, tracing is enabled in Windows Server Backup to preserve logs. These traces will be present in files
under the following directory: %windir%\logs\windowsserverbackup
You can use some tools such as
tracerpt
command to export the .etl file into a .txt file. Please check if you can find waht is the root trigger that triggers this unscheduled backup.
Meanwhile, please check the schedule task for the scheduled backup if it was configured correctly. You can clear up and recreate, then please check if this issue still exists.
Hope this helps.
Best regards,
Justin Gu

Issues With Backing up Server to USB HDD in Windows Server 2012 Essentials

Hi,
I have a few installs of Windows Server 2012 Essentials on clients sites and I have an issue where by the server will back up to the connected USB HDD for while but then will fail and the only way to make it backup again is to wipe the HDDs then setup server
backup again.
I get the following error in the Application Event viewer:
The backup operation that started at '‎2014‎-‎01‎-‎16T05:00:12.595237100Z' has failed with following error code '0x80070020' (The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.). Please review the event details for a
solution, and then rerun the backup operation once the issue is resolved.

Are there any best practices that I am missing while setting this up or this a known issue and what is the resolution?
Best Regards,
Abby_Doc

Hi Abby_Doc,
Regarding to this issue, generally some application is causing sharing violation on files. Then backup fails to access those files. Such as some
Antivirus program and so on. Please temporarily disable antivirus program and monitor if this issue still persists.
Meanwhile, you can perform a clean boot in Windows to eliminate software conflicts that occur when you backup.

In addition, the Process Monitor will help us to find out which file was actually locked. You can download from following link.

Hope this helps.

Shadow copies issues with Windows Server 2012 R2, deduplication and defragmentation

Hello,
I have a virtual Windows Server 2012 R2 with a data volume with deduplication and shadow copies enabled.
During this weekend some Windows process deleted all the shadow copies and I don't know what process has caused this issue.
After taking a look at Internet forums it seems that could be related to defragmentation process and cluster size but if I review the logs it seems that shadow copies deletion is during some deduplication optimization process (Background Optimization, WeeklyGarbageCollection
and WeeklyScrubbing) and 1 hour after defragmentation.
The related events are a lot of volsnap 33 and finishing with volsnap 36.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

Hi Ricard,
Above all, here is a long discussion about a "losing all volume shadow copy" issue:
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/204e8cce-cd1f-4ca2-852e-a5f09a77c04c/volsnap-event-id-25-and-loss-of-previous-backups?forum=windowsbackup
As it mentioned, it could be caused by disk I/O. When you have high input/output traffic on the original volume, the shadow copy storage area cannot grow fast enough to hold all the copy-on-write changes. This causes deletion of all the shadow copies on the
original volume.
Deduplication will cause a high disk I/O for sure so it could be the cause of this issue.
Here are some suggestions for this issue:
a. Put the shadow copy storage on another volume, even if the volume is located on the same hard disk.
b. Make sure that the volume that causes the issue is not the same volume that contains the paging file. If it contains paging file, consider putting the paging file on another volume.
c. Make sure that the volume is not used as the shadow copy storage for any other volume.
