UNSOLVED
Windows Internal Database and WSUS
Hi,
I'm getting the below errors on a VMware client running Windows 2008 R2 x64 and Networker 7.4.4 x64. Windows Server Update Services 3.0 SP2 is installed on the server.
Here is the error:
savegrp: suppressed 7 lines of output.
Windows Internal Database - ERROR: Failed to save FileGroup files, writer = SqlServerWriter
Windows Internal Database - Error saving writer Windows Internal Database
Windows Internal Database - ERROR: Aborting backup of saveset VSS SYSTEM SERVICES: because of the error with writer Windows Internal Database.
Windows Internal Database - Error saving
7162:(pid 2552): save of VSS SYSTEM SERVICES:\ to backupservername failed
Can anyone here help me find a solution on this.
I know Networker isn't supported on Windows 2008 R2 yet, but i hope someone has a solution/workaround on this one.
regards Kasper

Sounds like a VSS problem to me. Have you disabled VSS in your client properites?
VSS:*=off

It's all about changes made to the 2008 R2 SYSTEM STATE databases. There are some significant modifications that you will see an answer for shortly from our Product Manager group. I'll make sure this gets propogated over to you Kasper, and the rest of this thread...630

Hi Steven,
Thanks for your answer, I'm glad to hear that your working on a solution. We desperately need that client, since we was a bit to fast to deploy some windows 2008 R2 VM's and now we must use Windows Backup to have a valid backup.
regards kasper

Hoping for a fully baked and GA'ble code at the the end of Q1.
We'll be sure to let you know if we can get it sooner. We are getting a lot of requests for it so you are not alone!

Hi Jarek,
Yes, Networker 7.5.2 supports Windows 2008 R2. Volume Shadow Copy Service is provided by Microsoft and issues with VSS also could cause the backup to fail. If you still experiencing the issue I would suggest you to raise a case with EMC support so that we can investigate further on this issue.

Hi Kasper,
Windows Server 2008 R2 has new features that require some development effort for NetWorker. We are looking at early 2010 for protecting R2 client OS, initially on the 7.5 release train, quickly followed by NW 7.6. Support for server and storage nodes will arrive in a following quarter.
Hope this helps.
