Re: SBS 2003 backup

Initial gut reaction is to check your AV software and make sure you've properly configured exclusions properly. Oddly AV companies can see that exchange is installed and install their exchange plugin, but can't preconfigure their own exclusions based on that same detection. Go figure.

I have 2 different customers at different locations using Microsoft Small
Business Server 2003 Premium Edition, single partition on mirrored hard
drives running the SBS backup to a file that later is copied to Iomega Rev
drives. One Rev is internal connected via Atapi interface and the other is an
external connect via USB.

Periodically the backup fails, but both fail with the same error:

Error: Could not access portions of directory System State\COM+ Class
Registration Database.
You may not have permission to open the file, or the directory may be
missing or damaged.
Please contact the owner or administrator.

Error: Could not access portions of directory System State\Registry.
You may not have permission to open the file, or the directory may be
missing or damaged.
Please contact the owner or administrator.


The only articles that I have found relating to these errors are due to
BackupAssist or Volume shadowcopy. Neither uses BackupAssist and when I run
“VSSADMIN LIST WRITERS” each item displays no errors.

I am at a loss as to where to look next.
