Bluescreen on Server 2008R2 - Hyper-V Host with Snapman
Hi Support,
I get random Bluescreen pointing to snapman.sys (Version used: 4.4.0.1054). This happens sometimes after several month, sometimes after a week or two. The Server has only the Hyper-V role installed and was updated from BuR 11.0 to BuR 11.5 (latest build).
As far as I know, there is an updated driver package and a new version coming (support for Win2012), can you send me the correct link for the updated drivers...?
Thx
Volker

Hello Volker Nadolski,
Thank you for posting this issue in our forum. I am happy to assist you.
Under normal conditions, it is not necessary to use another SnapAPI driver, than that is provided with the installation pack from Acronis Backup & Recovery 11.5.
You can download the latest SnapAPI from this article in our knowledge base.
If you need additional assistance, please create a system report of the affected machine and contact support. You will find all available support options in our Customer handbook.
If there is anything else we can do for you, please let me know.
Thank you.

Hello Volker Nadolski,
Thank you for your quick reply.
The latest official drivers are in the latest build of Acronis Backup & Recovery 11.5 (32308). If he is using another driver version, he got it from our support department. For that he seems to have an open support request. The only thing he can do is to uninstall the product, run the cleanup utility to remove the snapman driver complete. After that, he can install the latest downloadable version and install this on the machine.
If there is anything else we can do for you, please let me know.
Thank you.

We too have started seeing BSOD issues on our Hyper-V host. Our dump file is also pointing to snapman. We are running the latest version AB&R VE 11.5 32308. Although I feel the problem was happening even before updating to the latest version. At that time I wasn't analyzing the dump file.
