Hello,

I have problem with FS on Windows 2003.
I have still one problem on local disk system when is performed backup of
system disk and systemstate.
When backup starts then I receive error NTFS 55.
When I backup DB on disk attached on SAN storage then everything is ok

I ran many times defrag and chkdsk after restart but without any result.

Could you help me?

Defragging will NOT fix any file system errors.

When running chkdsk, you MUST specify the /F switch, as
the screen report says. If you don't then chkdsk won't fix any
errors.
 
Re: NTFS Error at backup of system and systemstate - Win 2003


I already tried chkdsk with all switches :-)
I tried many times chkdsk /r or /f with restart
I'm not dummy user..
Defrag temporarry solved problem.
After derragmentation chkdsk passed successfully.
But after some hours or days the problem occures again.

I never said you were a "dumb user". However, your own report
(see below) clearly shows that you ran chkdsk without the /f switch:
================
After error I ran chkdsk:
C:\>chkdsk c:
The type of the file system is NTFS.
Volume label is OS.

WARNING! F parameter not specified.
Running CHKDSK in read-only mode.
================
If the problem keeps recurring then you probably have a damaged
file system. I had one of those too some time ago and I solved the
problem like so:
1. I connected a spare disk as a slave disk to the server.
2. I partitioned & formatted this disk.
3. I booted the server with a Bart PE CD.
4. I used robocopy.exe to copy all files & folders from the
damaged disk to the spare disk.
5. I disconnected the damaged disk.
6. I made the spare disk the master disk.
7. I checked if the server booted normally.
8. I repartitioned & formatted the damaged disk.
9. I reversed the above copy process.
This is a zero-risk process as long as you don't skip any steps.

Thanks

I have hw RAID-1 on system disks.
I'm not sure If will this solution work.
I had same problem on another three servers. But now is only on one...
I tkink that it is sw(OS, TSM, Veritas) or fw problem.
I would like know what did the problem and how to solve.

I use Tivoli storage manager for backuping, Veritas storage foundation for
sw mirroring on DB disks between two storages.
But system disks are basic disks on HW mirror.
DB disks are dynamic.
 
Re: NTFS Error at backup of system and systemstate - Win 2003

I would break the mirror and see if the problem persists.

Sorry, I have run out of magic bullets. You may have
to perform a complete backup, followed by partitioning/
formatting your hard disk. If this was my machine then
I would restore the backup to a different disk so that
I could test it BEFORE repartitioning the old disk.

For future posts I recommend that you do not only
post the details of your problem but also what steps
you took to resolve it. This avoids the awkward
situation where respondents suggest remedies that
you have already tried yourself.
