I recently deployed the Azure Backup server, while trying to protect the servers via BMR, one physical machine and VM is failing consistency check. 2 other VM backed up successfully with no problem.
for the Physical Server
Azure Backup Server Console Error
The replica of System Protection Computer\System Protection on Contact-Center.MARIESTOPESNIG.ORG is inconsistent with the protected data source. All protection activities for data source will fail until the replica is synchronized with consistency check. You can recover data from existing recovery points, but new recovery points cannot be created until the replica is consistent.
For SharePoint farm, recovery points will continue getting created with the databases that are consistent. To backup inconsistent databases, run a consistency check on the farm. (ID 3106)
DPM cannot create a backup because Windows Server Backup (WSB) on the protected computer encountered an error (WSB Event ID: 517, WSB Error Code: 0xE9D38910). (ID 30229 Details: Internal error code: 0x80990ED0)
EVENT VIEW
The backup operation that started at '2021-05-14T23:42:47.910190000Z' has failed with following error code '0x8078015B' (Windows Backup encountered an error when accessing the remote shared folder. Please retry the operation after making sure that the remote shared folder is available and accessible.). Please review the event details for a solution, and then rerun the backup operation once the issue is resolved.
What I noticed
Manual backup using wbadmin and windows server backup to a local disk works fine but fails for a network shared folder (tried different location/servers)
I can access the shared network path from the problem machine.
when performing a consistency check, the backup starts and get stuck at 29% when I view it from the windows server backup.
The VM
Manual backup using wbadmin and windows server backup to a local disk and network shared folder works fine
-Backup sometimes get stuck halfway, 58% and sometimes it completes but still fails on the Azure backup server.I get the same errors as the Physical server on Event log.
Azure Backup console error An unexpected error occurred while the job was running. (ID 104 Details: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process (0x80070020))
What I have tried so far but didn't work.
Implemented the solution here https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/system-center/dpm/bare-metal-recovery-backup-fails
Increased the size of the replica.
