Hi,I am having issues with backup jobs. I have a job that runs and backup all the online databases (around 25 database ranges from 3 TB to 10 MB in size). When these databases were in different servers, the FULL backups worked fine. But after we consolidated the databases to one server, the backup job is skipping some database backups. No errors logged any where, but those databases don't exist in the destination folder. The differentials backups are working fine but the monthly and weekly FULL backup jobs that is skipping some databases. It looks like there is a time out or some bottleneck that creates this situation. I did sp_configure on one of the old servers and here are some configs that are different. could any of those cause this issue?NEW SERVER:name minimum maximum config_value run_valueAd Hoc Distributed Queries 0 1 1 1awe enabled 0 1 0 0max server memory (MB) 16 2147483647 286720 286720min server memory (MB) 0 2147483647 0 0OLD SERVER:Ad Hoc Distributed Queries 0 1 0 0awe enabled 0 1 1 0max server memory (MB) 16 2147483647 2147483647 2147483647min server memory (MB) 0 2147483647 0 16 this is quite related to this question I posted.

| 1) Is there room at the destination for every backup file?2) Are you logging any information during the process, such as what database is currently being backed up? where is it being backed up to?)3) Does your job loop through the databases or do you make explicit invocations of BACKUP DATABASE for each database of interest?4) If the differentials are fine, doesn't that indicate that the FULL backup is fine, also? (somehow?)5) Would it be possible to see the actual job script? (If the logic is in a stored procedure, can we see the sproc code?)=================================================No, no, you're not thinking, you're just being logical. -Niels Bohr |
