I am not.
I am backing up the S: drive that does not have compression and is only the 
.bak files.
I was getting tired when I responded about the mdf's and ldf's.

  Why are you backing up the .mdf and .ldf files if you have a .bak file backup 
generated by your maintenance plan?  If you want to back up live .mdf and .ldf 
files you need to stop your sql services.

  I am running Windows Server Enterprise 2003.

  I am running SQL Enterprise 2003.

  On a 32 bit install.

  I run SQL backup everynight.

  I have a 60GB backup file for my production database.

  I run NTBackup and it backup up all the databases except the Production 
database.

  It runs for about 2 hours backing it up and then fails within about 300 
Mb of finishing stating the file is inconsistant.

  Has anyone seen this?

   

  When you say "I run SQL backup everynight", do you mean you use a SQL 
maintenance plan to run a backup or you backup the actual database with 
NTBackup?

The HP Ultrium 1-SCSI SCSI Sequential Device [Tape drive] is connected to the 
LSI Logic PCI-X Ultra320 SCSI Host Adapter.
SQL runs on it's own volume D: (HP LOGICAL VOLUME SCSI Disk Device (73.37 GB) 
-- drive 2).
The Data files for the database are on volume J: (HP LOGICAL VOLUME SCSI Disk 
Device (513.62 GB) -- drive 0) or volume R: (HP LOGICAL VOLUME SCSI Disk Device 
(1027.47 GB) -- drive 5) and the log files for all the databases are on volume 
L: (HP LOGICAL VOLUME SCSI Disk Device (733.91 GB) -- drive 4).
SQL backups are stored on volume S: (HP LOGICAL VOLUME SCSI Disk Device (733.91 
GB) -- drive 6).
S:, L:, and R: are on one Storage Array 30.  S: has 6 SAS Drives at 10k RPM, L: 
has 6 SAS Drives at 10k RPM, R: has 8 SAS Drives at 10k RPM.  All are RAID 5.
J: in on it's own Storage Array 30. J: is RAID 1+0 with 20 SAS Drives at 15k 
RPM.
D: is on the same BUS as C: and both are mirrored 73Gb 15k RPM SAS Drives.
SQL reports no errors creating the backup and a restore of the backup file is 
completed daily to a report database to verify the .bak file on the S: is good.
Running NTBackup with the Tape Drive or the USB drive (W:) gets the same

Not sure what ntbackup does if the vss switch is set to be used when its 
disabled.
If its not set, and it fails then you have some weird business going on :)

When I stopped VSS backup wouldn't even run.
When I went to the S: drive and reviewed the Shadow tab is was already disabled.
I enabled and disabled it again and the backup still failed.

I am running Windows Server Enterprise 2003.
I am running SQL Enterprise 2003.
On a 32 bit install.
I run SQL backup everynight.
I have a 60GB backup file for my production database.
I run NTBackup and it backup up all the databases except the Production 
database.
It runs for about 2 hours backing it up and then fails within about 300 Mb of 
finishing stating the file is inconsistant.
Has anyone seen this?

When you say “I run SQL backup everynight”, do you mean you use a SQL 
maintenance plan to run a backup or you backup the actual database with 
NTBackup?

Re: NTBackup failing on large files

2008-06-25 Thread David W. McSpadden
Last firmware updates were done in February.  Everything was up to date then.
I am thinking it might be a VSS issue or just NTBackup.exe.  I have seen 
several articles stating 
the NTBackup is in need of a hotfix.  My past production servers had trouble 
with RSM not NTBackup.
I am thinking a call to MS is coming soon.

The database seems ok.  It is just the backup.  SQL finishes the SQL backup

NT runs the NTbackup but the verification shows a file that is inconsistent and

Running a restore on the inconsistent file shows that the file gets to about 55

  Try a backup to other media (i.e. disk). Has the LTO a separate card ?

Subject: NTBackup failing on large files

 

I am running Windows Server Enterprise 2003.

I am running SQL Enterprise 2003.

On a 32 bit install.

I run SQL backup everynight.

I have a 60GB backup file for my production database.

I run NTBackup and it backup up all the databases except the Production 
database.

It runs for about 2 hours backing it up and then fails within about 300 Mb 
of finishing stating the file is inconsistant.

Has anyone seen this?

 

When you say "I run SQL backup everynight", do you mean you use a SQL 
maintenance plan to run a backup or you backup the actual database with 
NTBackup?

Nope.
I've been told that's bad for .mdf and .ldf files.
