Acronis backup agent failing
Hello,
We have installed Acronis backup agent (64-bit) version 12.5.12960 on Centos 7 with Plan: Entire machine to Cloud storage. When trying to run the entire system backup it is failing.
We see the following errors in the logs:
The activity has failed due to a restart of the service.
Additional info:
------------------------
Error code: 78
Module: 309
LineInfo: 0x7564DA35B0F1EAF5
Fields: {"$module":"mms_lxa64_12960"}
Message: The activity has failed due to a restart of the service.
------------------------
Error code: 205
Module: 309
LineInfo: 0x7564DA35B0F1EAFD
Fields: {"$module":"mms_lxa64_12960"}
Message: The activity has failed due to an unexpected machine reboot or the backup process was terminated.
We then checked and confirmed that the backup agent service is crashing with the following details:
================

Please suggest.

Hello Jason,
When we initiate the backup from the portal the service acronis_mms.service fails. Here is the output we see:
Aug 19 13:59:49 localhost.localdomain systemd[1]: Unit acronis_mms.service entered failed state.
Aug 19 13:59:49 localhost.localdomain systemd[1]: acronis_mms.service failed.
After sometime when the backup portal reports that the backup operation has failed the service acronis_mms.service is again in running state.
I have also re-installed the backup agent on the server but it didn't help. I have also ensured that it is not a firewall issue. Below is the output for your reference:
[root@localhost ver]# ./linux_port_checker_en-US_x86_64 -u=xxxxxxxx

Any suggestion or help would be appreciated.

Hi Ravi
This seems to be a service crash, can you check the following log for me:
Check /var/log/messages for segfault messages of mms proces, you should see something like this:
Aug 22 08:39:32 localhost kernel: mms[15295]: segfault at 0 ip 00007ffe6210fa79 sp 00007fff87d2a7e0 error 4 in libDiskBundle.so[7ffe6143c000+240f000]
Please let me know what you find

Hello Jacob,
Thank you for your reply.
I have already tried to check this by following the mentioned forums https://kb.acronis.com/content/61650. However, there is nothing related found in the error logs.
/var/log/messages for segfault
The only log I can find related to 'mms' is as mentioned below:
cat /var/log/messages | grep 'mms'
Aug 19 13:54:47 localhost systemd: acronis_mms.service: main process exited, code=killed, status=9/KILL
Aug 19 13:54:47 localhost systemd: Unit acronis_mms.service entered failed state.
Aug 19 13:54:47 localhost systemd: acronis_mms.service failed.

Hello Jacob,
I would also like to add some more details about the issue. When we initiate the backup from console it starts and shows 20% complete and then fails to load after it.
This has one of the behaviours I have notified when I run the backup from the console.
Hope this helps in your investigation.

Hi Ravi
Since there are no logs pertaining to segfault mms I would not be able to further investigate.
I would strongly recommend logging a support case with Acronis as this will most likely require a remote session to troubleshoot. When logging the case with Acronis support team please ensure that you provide them with the:
System information log:
https://kb.acronis.com/content/54608
As well as the process monitor log:
https://kb.acronis.com/content/2295
And lastly just add the Strace logs aswell:
https://kb.acronis.com/content/37659
The above will help speed up the troubleshooting process

Any chance you're running out of RAM and the OOM killer is killing the acronis_mms process?
