A thought... (not sure if this will work)
Re-run the SBS Backup wizard and on the "Storage Alloaction for Deleted
Files and Email" screen, uncheck "Enable periodic Snapshots of user's shared
folders". Then finish the wizard. Now go to My Computer | rt. click the C:
drive | Properties | Shadow Copies, and highlight & delete any scheduled
Shadow copies for any partition. Now go back and re-run the SBS Backup
Wizard again but this time enable the "Periodic Snapshots".

Background: I bought a new hard drive for our server (SBS 2003), and
needed
to migrate from the old drive to the new. I installed Seagate's (Acronis)
DiscWizard software, and copied the partitions to the new drive. Booted
to
the new drive, and for the most part, everything worked.
Problem: The built-in SBS Backup no longer works. Apparently DiscWizard
clobbered the Volume Shadow Copy Services by installing its own, and not
properly restoring Microsoft's during uninstall. Seagate's tech support
was
(as expected) no help, which brings me here.
Errors: This is where I stand right now. In Server Management, it says
"Backup Configuration Wizard has not been run, or backup has been
disabled."
I click Configure Backup, and walk thru the wizard. After clicking
Finish, I
get a message box:
Backup Configuration Wizard - An unexpected error occurred (80070057).
The
parameter is incorrect.
At the end of BackupWizard.log, this is what I get:
Calling CommitRetention()
Error 0x80070057 returned from call to CommitRetention().
Backup Wizard finished with error code 0X80070057.
If I try to force a backup, I get this in the latest sbsbackuplog##.log
file:
Volume shadow copy creation: Attempt 1.
Error returned while creating the volume shadow copy:0x8004230f.
Error returned while creating the volume shadow copy:8004230f
Aborting Backup.
If I right-click the C: drive, Shadow Copies tab, I get this:
Failed to retrieve volumes that are eligible for shadow copies.
Error 0x8004230f: The shadow copy provider had an unexpected error while
trying to process the specified operation.
I've googled and googled and googled and tried everything that I remotely
thought would help... reinstalling Administrative Tools, reinstalling SP2,
re-registering files, applying hotfixes, etc.
I think that if I could somehow reinstall all the VSCS stuff, everything
would go back to normal... but that's just a thought.,
I'd really appreciate any help! Thanks!
Dan
