Hi, We were hit with the Blaster virus bad last night. We patched everything up last night and fixed the problem, but I noticed the exact same symptoms on three workstations (windows 2000 pro) that I was backing up. I chalked it up to the worm that hit us. It uses the rpc exploit to attack the server. You might want to check the virus thing again. These workstations had not otherwise missed a backup on the three months they had been active.

The Server Support group checked the servers and say they do not have the virus. However, the RPC service died at 11:00 am yesterday, for unknown reasons. (Actually it stopped at 11:00 on all three Domino servers yesterday.) We have other Domino servers that are not having this issue. So I restarted the RPC Service. (I did not reboot the server) I scheduled a backup to run. and received the same results: 08/14/2003 10:20:39 ANS1183E An unknown error occurred while processsing system object 'RSM Database': MS API function 'OpenNtmsSession' failed with error -2146959355 (0x80080005) 08/14/2003 10:20:40 ANS1228E Sending of object '\\ntiistools\c $\WINNT\System32\NtmsData\Export\*' failed 08/14/2003 10:20:40 ANS1340E Exporting RSM database files failed.

It is due to the latest MS worm hit to your W2K clients. If you will look before you try a backup, the RPC service is not running. When it isn't running, you get the errors below. If you reboot the box and RPC fires back up, no problems on the backups. Your servers/workstations will need to be patched. Go to MS website for bulletin on MS03-026 to get the appropriate patch. Be careful, the 03-026 patch can cause issues on servers as it affects DCOM functionality.
