Hi again,
More about this:
1 - The backup of the physical machine doesn't work too when having FSRM
installed
2 - If we remove FSRM in the cluster nodes, then we can do backup of the
physical machines ...
3 - ... but the clussvc.exe process crashes as soon as the backup
starts, so the resources are moved to the other node in the cluster. I
suppose this is because as part of VSS SYSTEM BOOT the cluster database
is trying to backed up:
Faulting application clussvc.exe, version 6.0.6001.18000, time stamp
0x4791941c, faulting module clussvc.exe, version 6.0.6001.18000, time
stamp 0x4791941c, exception code 0xc0000005, fault offset
0x000000000027aaba, process id 0xc54, application start time
0x01c894ac33777a7e.
An unhandled exception was encountered while processing a VSS writer
event callback. The VSS writer infrastructure is in an unstable state.
The writer hosting process must be restarted in order to resume VSS
functionality.
Writer name: Cluster Database
Writer id: {41e12264-35d8-479b-8e5c-9b23d1dad37e}
Writer instance: {f68afaa1-531c-4fc1-8325-2628f57170ba}
Process command line: C:\Windows\Cluster\clussvc.exe -s
Process ID: 3156
Writer operation: 1001
Writer state: 1
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Exception location: 02
So, I REALLY HOPE that SP2 solves all these things related to VSS, FSRM,
etc. and that it will be released as soon as possible.
Thank you.

Hello Manel,
Support for Windows 2008 will require one of:
NetWorker 7.4 SP2 -- due in a week or two.
NetWorker Module for Microsoft Applications release 2.0 -- available as

Thanks,

Subject: [Networker] Backing up cluster resources in Windows Server 2008
Hello,
We have the following environment:
Legato Server, Windows 2003 R2, Legato 7.4.1
and we are trying to backup cluster resources in a Windows Server 2008
Failover cluster formed by:
node1, Windows Server 2008 Enterprise, Legato 7.4.1
node2, Windows Server 2008 Enterprise, Legato 7.4.1
In this cluster we define the 'resource1' (associated with the F:\
volume).
We can backup without problems 'node1' and 'node2' by themselves. No
problem with 2008. They are treated as normal clients (using VSS), etc.
We define a new client 'resource1' with saveset F:\ and with remote
permissions assigned to system@node1 and system@node2 (the same we had
for another cluster in Windows 2000).
OK. We launch the backup and it seems to start but it stays in the
'contacting client' status for a long time. The correct tape is mounted,
etc.
If we abort the group, we get the following error:
* resource1:F:\ Additional System Files have been added for the Vista or
Longhorn platform.
So, it seems that Legato has detected the correct platform (Longhorn)
but the backup doesn't start. We can contact the client from the server
without problems:
E:\lcfib\bats>nsradmin -s resource1 -v1 -p390113

Any idea about what the problem could be?
