Exchange 2010 backups failing
I just got my new Exchange environment successfully backing up earlier this week, and now all of a sudden they are failing again.
I'm running Networker 8.1.1.3, NMM 3.0.1, Exchange 2010 in a simple DAG.
The Backup command is: nsrsnap_vss_save.exe
Application information:
NSR_SNAP_TYPE=vss
NSR_EXCH2010_BACKUP=active
NSR_ALT_PATH=c:\temp
NSR_EXCH2010_DAG=HHDAG1.enterprise_domain.org
CIRCULAR_PROMOTION_POLICY=skip
NSR_EXCHINCL_SA=TRUE
This is the error I get when it fails.

Nothing has changed in the configuration since they were backing up successfully.
Could someone please point me in the right direction to get this resolved?
Thank you

Thank you Hrvoje! I had searched for several different lines in that error, but not that one.
Such a simple fix! Being new to Networker, It would really be nice if their errors weren't so cryptic!

Hi,
I am getting this error when trying to backup SharePoint 2013.
What was the fix?
Thanks

Hi Sadhbh
Did you do a search to find out about that message? This is most likely a configuration issue.
If you don't find the solution please create a new thread as this one is already answered and was about Exchange.
Thank you,
Carlos
