Yeah, it's Backup Exec 12. I'm not backing up the VM file-I've got a BE Remote Agent installed on the VM, and am connecting to that to backup.

I have a Windows 2003 server with MSVS hosting a BES server (has some Exchange parts), and it the entire host server blue screens every time I try to backup with Backup Exec. It has something to do with VSS, but I have not been able to figure it out. The BSOD says something about "VOLSNAP" (not at the office so I don't have the exact error I wrote down). Symantec has a few KBs on backing up Exchange VMs, and if I recall correctly, it says you have to shut the VM down before backing up the VM. Bob Fronk [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: John Hornbuckle [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 24, 2008 5:58 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Troubleshooting Server 2008 Reboots I've got a 64-bit Server 2008 machine running Hyper-V. It's also a DNS server, a DC, and a Backup Exec server. Its function as a backup server is new-I've only been doing that for about two days. Twice today, while backing up one of the VMs to a NAS system, this server has rebooted. I've backed up the other VMs with no problems, but this one VM (our Exchange VM, incidentally) seems to cause a problem. I'm really not sure how to troubleshoot a spontaneous reboot with Server 2008. The event logs show nothing (other than an entry after the reboot saying that the shutdown was unexpected). The reliability monitor shows nothing-no crash or anything. It's basically like what would happen if I just unplugged a server's power. Power problems are unlikely, though, as this server has dual power supplies, and each is connected to a separate UPS. Any pointers? ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
