Hyper-V Server 2012 - Backup fails - Volsnap errors
Dear community,
Environment
Hyper-V Server 2012
Acronis Backup 11.5 Advanced Server Hyper-V Edition
As volume shadow copy provider i use "Software - System Provider", the Microsoft
VSS.
Problem
Two Backups randomly fail while creating a snapshot via the hyper-v agent on
the host. i receive following errors in the eventlog of the host:
Source: volsnap Eventid: 27
The shadow copies of volume \\?\Volume{97f0e418-5be3-11e4-b1d0-90b11c0e6b39} were aborted during detection because a critical control file could not be opened.
Source: volsnap Eventid: 25
The shadow copies of volume C: were deleted because the shadow copy storage could not grow in time. Consider reducing the IO load on the system or choose a shadow copy storage volume that is not being shadow copied.
Source: disk Eventid: 153
The IO operation at logical block address 800 for Disk 1 was retried.
and a new entry for the Filtermanager:
Eventid 3
Filter Manager failed to attach to volume '\Device\HarddiskVolume105'. This volume will be unavailable for filtering until a reboot. The final status was 0xC03A001C.
i increased the volume shadow copy storage manually by vssadmin resize shadowcopystorage.
i wonder while only two of the three backup tasks fail randomly. one task finishs every night without
a problem.
Thanks in advance
