backup over network shares (samba)
Posted: Tue Aug 13, 2013 8:37 pm
I'm still having trouble backing up to the networked drives... behavior isn't consistent. If I reset the backup, it will work for a while -- but starts failing again later. I'd like to resolve this once and for all, or abandon AISBbackup -- I've been monkeying with it for months now...
*I note that i'm in Vista x64 (boo)
*UAC is disabled
*VSS Enabled shows on the bottom of AISBackup -- though i'm not VSS or search indexing or who--knows-what could easily be disabled via service.msc
*There is only one account (so its administrator).
*In the title bar for AISBackup is says (running as administrator).
*I'm running version 3.2.0.428
*Backup job is titled: wdtoharrierusb
*My source drives come up readily if I highlight the job and select Manage Backup > Modify File and Folders list
*The destination drive is a samba share mapped as Q: on machine \\harrier The total path is \\harrier\iosafe where a few folders are the target of different AISBackup jobs.
Here's a log file of me trying to run the backup. Depending on when I last remapped the drive, reset the backup, rebooted, etc -- the jobs get to different places sometimes failing to even find the backup destination drive (even though it is available through explorer.exe). But let's start with the current state as shown in log file below. The warning message (with abort/retry) says the network location is no longer available... this happens each time.
I look forward to any suggestion on how to go forward. Thanks so much!
