SnapshotStorage registry setting has no effect
I have been having problems with ABR10SBS on SBS 2008, with the errors:
Message: Error occurred while reading the file.
Message: Failed to read the snapshot.
Message: Not enough storage is available to process this command
So I thought I would move the temporary snapshot file.
I uninstalled ABR10SBS, Acronis Recovery for Exchange, re-installed according to:
10291: Installation of Acronis Backup & Recovery 10, Acronis Recovery for MS Exchange and Acronis Recovery for MS SQL Server on the Same Machine
http://kb.acronis.com/content/10291
I have an Online Backup licence
then changed SnapshotStorage to c:\AcronisSnapTMP following this guide:
8032: Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 Creates a Temporary File During Snapshot
http://kb.acronis.com/content/8032
The backup user has full control of this folder.
I then created and online backup plans to existing vaults, and started the online backup, which is a file-based backup.
I found that the TMP file is still being created in the backup users temp location, rather than in the location I specified in the registry.
Please let me know if I have missed something here.
Thanks
Steve
