Re: Journal backup hangs on Windows 2003
Hello Richard, Thanks. I had found that one but my Windows-illiteracy prevented me to see any relevance to my problem. I'll have another look. Meanwhile we are beginning to suspect that the customer has OFS switched on which may be causing problems.

Alexander - A google search on VSS_E_WRITER_INFRASTRUCTURE yields http://msgs.adsm.org/cgi-bin/get/adsm0405/97.html and a few more, of interest. JBB has dependencies.

Journal backup hangs on Windows 2003
Hello, I've searched the list archives and the APARs and found several postings about problems with the journal based backups but none that I could find resembled my problem. So I humbly turn to this list for advise. One of our customers runs a 5.3.3.0 client on Windows 2003 Our server is 5.3.3.1 on AIX 5.2.0.0 We advised the customer to do journal based backups to decrease the time the backup takes. Unfortunately the client hangs when it tries to do a backup. dsmcad contacts the server and retrieves the time the backup is scheduled. It even starts dsmc at the appropriate time but dsmc just sits there and after 75 minutes the server severs the connection because it doesn't receive any traffic from the client. On the client however the scheduler keeps running until it is terminated by the customer. When the customer tries to stop the "TSM Journal Service" it hangs (does not stop) There is a strange error in the dsmerror.log that pops up several times per day: 07/18/2006 09:39:50 ANS5250E An unexpected error was encountered. TSM function name : VssRequestor::QueryStatus TSM function : pAsync->QueryStatus() for caller 'VssQuerySystemWriters()' returned VSS_E_WRITER_INFRASTRUCTURE TSM return code : -1 TSM file : vssreq.cpp (8270) My knowledge of Windows is virtually non existent so I have no idea what this is about. The dsmsched.log is silent. Any ideas anyone? Regards, Alexander Alexander Verkooijen Senior Systems Programmer High Performance Computing SARA Computing & Networking Services
