This is backing up a full server, C: & E:, 2 drives. The backup is running from Site Manager and has been coming up with this error since 01/16. In addition I have not been receiving my nightly emails status reports from Site Manager since 01/16 either. I believe the lack of emails was from a change in the AntiVirus settings on the server blocking Site Mgr from sending out emails. I did make adjustments to the AV and it is now sending email updates.

I have recently updated Site Manager with no change in backup status. It is still failing on Creating Volume Snapshot on C: drive.

I'm working the Snapshot problem and would welcome any comments....

I have one additional comment. when Reflect fails to backup C: drive it aborts the complete backup instead of continuing on with the next drive in the backup script. If the Volume Snapshot fails on the C: drive why doesn't Reflect skip over C: drive and continue to the next drive and attempt to back it up. It seems a missed backup opportunity.

As a result of the error on C:, I have created a separate backup script for E: drive and it is running now. I will investigate the C: drive error and report back.

Thank you.

Hi Stew

Thanks for posting. Sorry you are having problems.

If you haven't done so already could you open a support ticket so we can take a deeper look. Thanks

Nick,

Thanks for the reply but wonders never cease with these computers. I checked the backup status Wednesday and it has been working since Tuesday night. Even emailing out status reports.

I really didn't do anything except post some MS Updates and a server reboot. Beyond that it's a mystery as to how the Snapshot stuff was fixed.

All good now.

Any comments on my additional comment about aborting on first error?
