Backup of Windows 2008 R2 Failover cluster node
Hi,
We are deploying NetWorker 8.0 and are currently testing the backup of a multi instances clustered SQL server.
The backup of the SQL databases are working just fine but we cannot backup anything on the node (file system level).
As NMM 2.4 is installed to backup SQL, we have to use the backup command: nsrsnap_vss_save.exe
When we try to run the backup for the node, we get the error:
7006:nsrsnap:Null attributes returned by server 'nwserver', for resource group 'W2K8_FS_TEST', while fetching snapshot pool name
7000:nsrsnap:Incorrect pool name specified for group, 'W2K8_FS_TEST'
We already checked the group and the pool is correctly specified.
Does anyone succeed the backup of this kind of server ?
Could you please explain what you did to hav eit working ?
Thank you,
Fabian

Hi Fabian,
This is a Permission Issue caused by a missing NMM configuration, to resolve this issue do the following:
1- Give *@* under Remote Access for NMM Clients
2- Add the following in Administrators under User Groups
user=administrator,host=NMM_client_host
user=system,host=NMM_client_host
Hope this helps, Waiting your updates.

I have the same problem for my Exchange, Sharepoint and SQL servers. They all have this exact same error message on NW 8. With the 7.6 i had no issues to backup at all.
I have configured *@* with remote access for all these clients.
I have configured this:
user=administrator,host=[fqdn for the clients]
user=system,host=[fqdn for the clients]
But with NW8 there is no administrators group in User groups. So i have configured it with application administrators and users.
I have also changed administrator to Administrator with a capital A, and the same for user.
I still have this error showing up. Should i raise this with EMC support?

Then, there may be a corruption to that resource, that pool i mean , to proof that please try to configure a new snapshot pool and modify any client (Exchange, sql or sharepoint ) with that new pool and re-run again the backup. If it works perfectly, so it is for sure a corruption with that resource.
Waiting your updates.

Hi Ahmed,
I have created a new Media pool (SnapPool). It has an AFTD device connected. I have only 1 AFTD so it's the same that i succesfully use for backing up to. I did not specify the Data Source, which i believe is supposed to be like that. Can someone confirm this?
I have created a new Snapshot Policy: SnapPolicy.
Configuration for this policy is as following:
Number of snapshots: 1
Retain snapshots: 0
Snapshot expiration policy: Day
Backup snapshots: All
Now for the Group that i called: Filesystem_Test
I have selected the snapshot checkbox.
The Snapshot policy: SnapPolicy
Snapshot Pool: SnapPool
Now when i run the group i have the following error for the clients in that group:
7006:nsrsnap:Null attributes returned by server 'system01.domain.com', for resource group 'Filesystem_test', while fetching snapshot pool name
7000:nsrsnap:Incorrect pool name specified for group, 'Filesystem_test'
So still the same problem after creating a new Media pool as Snapshot pool.

Would you please run the backup in debug mode and provide us the output of the following command beside the daemon log:
savegrp -D9 -c clientname -l full -G groupname
Also i recommend you to open a service request with EMC about that issue as it may be a bug in NMM 2.4
Waiting your updates,

Do you see the same when client direct is not used ?
Is there any updates regarding the service request opened with EMC support ?
Thanks,

Hi Ahmed,
With Client Direct disabled, the error is still there.
I will raise the SR with EMC support now.
Thanks so far!

Hi,
We found why we had this issue.
The problem is due to the access for user SYSTEM@[Server name].
When we type the information in the Administratot user box, it is not working, if we add it using the command nsraddadmin -u SYSTEM@[Server name], everything is working fine.
Apparently it is a bug in NW 8.0, we will report this to EMC support.
Kind regards,
Fabian

Hello FabianEOC,
When you get a moment can you please confirm something for me. Is *@* in the "Users" user group? If not I was wondering if you can remove system@servername from the administrator list and added it to the Operators Usergroup then retry your backup.
If you contacted Support and a bug was filed, can you let me know the NW number?
We want to ensure that we accurately update documentation for this issue, if required.
Thanks
Debbie
