Hello Technet,
When running Windows Server Backup from the Server Manager (2008) -
selecting VSS full or copy backup, it reaches around 3.8gb on C: then fails
with an "I/O device error". We've tried saving to alternate disks and network
locations, as well as running wbadmin, same error message. It appears to be
failing during the System State backup.
Server has been restarted, and checked for any more recent updates, but
there is no change. I've found reference to this particular error in Vista
where the solution was to go to System Protection and disable Shadow Copy on
the drives, then re-enable - though I cannot see the System Protection area
in 2008. Shadow Copies are not currently enabled on any drive in the server,
and still no change in the error message.
Is there another way to fix this problem?
Many thanks,
Steve Copley
