Re: [Veritas-bu] Synthetic backups failing with 610

No, that configuration doesn't work either. You're limited to a single synthetic schedule per policy.

But ,
I think that you can run differential incrementals and synthesize a cumulative backup.
Then you can use the full and the latest synthetic cumulative and create a new synthetic full.
As you do not mix incremental and cumulative backups you are ok

We had a similar problem last year, discovered that the problem--for us, anyways--is that you can't have mixed incrementals when using synthetics. For example, you can run differential incrementals and synthetic fulls; you can run cumulative incrementals and synthetic fulls; but you cannot run cumulative and differential backups and get successful synthetics. They will work for a single cycle (seed full, mixed incrementals, synthetic full), but the next time a synthetic is attempted it will fail with a 610.

Took us months to figure that one out and that was working with Symantec support.

Hello Geeks,

I am here facing issues with synthetic backup. There are 7-8 windows 2008 clients that are giving me issues with synthetic backup.
The backup is failing with 610.

1: (610) end point terminated with an error

Environment : Master windows 2008 R2 -7.5.0.5
Client 7.5.0.5 -2008R2

We are taking their backups on Pure Disk pool ( We have created MSDP ). All the backups are happening over the WAN and thus we are using synthetic backups for the weekends.

FUll backups runs fine ,incremental runs file ,synthetic also does runs fine but fails after running/writing few Gigs with 610.

1: (610) end point terminated with an error

Not able to get any clue even from Symantec till now.

Any help would be appreciated.
Anyone else faced similar issue before.

Thanks,
PranavB
