Re: VSS writers problems backing up

Hi,
Sorry about the delay in responding I had to wait for them to reboot the
server after the patches you mentioned in the last post were installed.
The error I get in the event viewer is this :
Volsnap Event ID 25
The shadow copies of volume C: were deleted because the shadow copy storage
could not grow in time. Consider reducing the IO load on the system or
choose a shadow copy storage volume that is not being shadow copied.
I also get this message:
Volsnap Event ID 33
The oldest shadow copy of volume D: was deleted to keep disk space usage for
shadow copies of volume D: below the user defined limit.
I have applied Service Pack 5 for Veritas on the server and had before this
installed all the patches I could find, now unfortunately the update client
has stopped working so I cannot easily check for more.
As for Windows patches I have basically been led by you on which ones I need
to apply and have put all the ones on that you have mentioned.
The backup works for a couple of days after a reboot but then starts failing
again.
Thanks
Anthony

Any new ideas come to the fore of late?
Thanks

Anthony,
That's ok. How about a breakdown of what version / patches related to
Backup Exec do you have? What patches related to VSS do you have
installed? How about any event viewer logs and Event IDs associated
with the failed backups? All this info would help greatly. You've
already re-registered the EXE's and DLLs per
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/940032, correct?
The only other post-VSS roll-up patches and articles I've come across
are these:
Hotfixes:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/949391
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/951568
Articles:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/945058
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/941956
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/940184
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/953617
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/950141
Did you also happen to see these articles:
http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/264862.htm
http://seer.support.veritas.com/docs/263771.htm
I know you're not specifically experiencing these issues explicitly
(even after the roll-up was applied) but perhaps installing the
hotfixes from the two KBs listed above will at the very least bring
all VSS related files fully up to date and fix a couple bugs along the
way. Give it a shot.
