| hi,I get this error message while trying to create a logshipping plan for a database.--BackupDiskFile::RequestDurableMedia: failure on backup device '\\Dtc_psprd\TranLogBak\HR8PRD_logshipping_init.bak'. Operating system error 64(The specified network name is no longer available.).--Any thoughts? I have a netshare created for the server so what does it mean by network name no longer availble?Thanks,Sarat |

| I hope that someone here is able to answer your question because I had the same problem on two of our production servers. Even though the network share was accessible, the log shipping maintenance plan was unable to use it to backup the initial database. "Everyone" had full access to the network share and the account that I was logged into the server as has administrative privileges on it, so permissions wasn't a problem. I even tested the network share from different servers and it worked fine. I ended up having to create the initial database from scratch instead of letting the maintenance plan do it. If you can't get it to work either, I would suggest doing it from scratch and then create the maintenance plan and let it know that you already have a database for it to use. |

| Thanks tduggan! Log shipping works now. I asked my Network administrator and he told me that the netshare name was not registered thats why I was getting the error.Thanks,Sarat |
