hi at all,
I have a problem with the VMs restore test.
I have created a backup script in host server for my Hyper-V VMs: in this script a VSS backup via diskshadow is created, then VSS is exposed and copied on another location (NAS):
DELETE SHADOWS ALL
# Startup settings
SET CONTEXT PERSISTENT
SET METADATA c:\BACKUP\Backup.cab
SET VERBOSE ON
# Starting Backup
BEGIN BACKUP
ADD VOLUME C:\ ALIAS SystemVolumeC
#
CREATE
# mount VSS backup
EXPOSE %SystemVolumeC% X:
# run cmd and copy vhd on NAS
EXEC C:\BACKUP\copy_VMS_on_NAS.cmd
UNEXPOSE X:
# end backup
END BACKUP
All 2 Vms are windows server 2008 R2, host too. one is the PDC and one is Exchange 2007 SP2 server.
For my recovery test I have copied all 2 backed-up VHD to another isolated server. I have recreated VMs using the VHD and reconfigured network like VMs in prod. But when I try to login on exchange server with AD Administrator I can't because this server can't contact the AD server. Both VMs are able to ping.
* adsiedit from exchange server can view all AD domain but i can't login (I'm able to login only with local account)
* nltest /SC_VERIFY:domain return an ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED because I'm local user and not domain admin
* DCdiag don't display any major error, only about: replication failure (the second DC is not part of
recovery test) and "RPC service unavailable" but in w2k8 it's not used (right?)
I think that "security channel" is broken but i don't know how to fix because I can't login to exchange server via network user.
Can you help me? right now, there is no good backup of my production VMs and I know that this method (DISKSHADOW backup with Hyper-V writer) is supported by microsoft.
Thank you!!
