I have installed DPM 2012 SP1 to test online azure backup and got Windows Azure free access pass from Microsoft.

Q) How do I integrate DPM to Azure online backup? As per Microsoft article I'll have an option for register but I don’t see “ Register“ under  “Management” on the left hand side , we have two option listed underOnline– “ ManageSubscription” and “ Check update“. Please see attached screenshot.

I have already installed all relevant update , please let me know anything else needs to be done.

Hey guys,

I was wondering ... since a couple of days after updating DPM with UR2 I can't Setup the Azure Online Agent successfully.
It seems the Agent is now to old -> 1.0.8067.0 is installed.
"Windows Azure Backup Agent is not compatible with DPM. (ID: 33418)"

Status: unreachable

Via https://portal.onlinebackup.microsoft.com/en-US/Dashboard I can only get this one.

common problem or did i miss something?

DPM 2012 SP1 - Azure Backup

I have couple of questions in terms of VM backup in Windows Azure Cloud .

1) Can we create a VM machine in Microsoft Azure cloud using .vhd file which we have backed up thorough DPM 2012 SP1 online protection , if yes please help me with step by step document. 

2) Once we create a VM in cloud how do we make site to site VPN from cloud console ?

3) How exactly cloud online backup works ? If I'm not wrong, when I fire a backup it will go to Disk based local storage and from there to cloud.

4)  Will it be deleted from local disk storage (staging) once it moves to cloud ?

I have backed up a vm ( 20 Gb ) using DPM Azure Cloud and the first backup took almost 6 hrs ,but next schedule backup completed in 20 minutes and the amount of data being transferred only 27 MB. What exactly happening ? Could you please explain backup process in Azure Cloud backup  ?

Backups fail consistently on Server 2012 Essentials

I had been running successfully on Server 2012 Essentials with the old backup agent, and recently upgraded to the new agent as required.  I have not had a successful backup since.

Most report an "Unsuccessful" backup in the dashboard with an error message saying "Error: The Windows Azure Backup is not available.  Wait a few minutes and then try again.  If the problem persists, visit the Windows Azure Backup website for more information."

Twice I have gotten instead a report of "Warning", instead.

I have confirmed in the Windows Azure management portal that my vault is properly set up and the server is properly registered.  In fact some files have been backed up in the sessions returning a "Warning".  Also no connectivity problems at the server end that I am aware of.

Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Windows Server 2012 Essentials - CATALOG FAILURE__0x80131500

I'm trying to test this Azure Backup with Windows Server 2012 Essentials and keep getting this error.

CATALOG FAILURE0x80131500 for about 600 files.  It backed up 78GB, but fails on these.  Not sure why.  I can open them just fine on the server itself.

Here's a full error of one:

CATALOG FAILURE0x80131500 D:\ServerFolders\Distribution\MXMAR-PCL6-0902A-XPVISTAX64-WHQL_T1\MXMAR-PCL6-0902a-XPVistax64-whql_T1\SCPRINT

Any ideas how to fix it?  It's just annoying because I get email alerts from it daily telling me the online backup failed.

I'm using Version 1.0.8188.0 of the Windows Azure Backup Agent.

Appearently there is a 850 gig limitation for the amount of data that can be backed up to Azure for any one volume. Is this a value that can be changed in Azure, if not, how might one overcome that limitation?

Priming the initial backup

Will microsoft offer a service to prime the initial backup by accepting a couriered external disk containing the data? Specifically, my issue is that I have a number of branch sites with limited upload bandwidth, it would take weeks to complete an initial backup. Alternatively, is there a way I could go about taking a copy of the vhdxs containing the data that needs to be pushed to azure backup, put them on an external disk, perform the initial upload from head office (over a much faster connection), and then allow the branch office server to perform the subsequent incremental backups?

Cheers

DPM2012 - Can't Disable online protection to Azure

I have a protection group that I enabled online protection to Windows Azure.  My trial has ended and I now want to disable online protection as it is failing every backup.  DPM doesn't let me do this.  It won't even let me make any changes to the protection group before I sort out my registration status with windows azure.  I then attempt to unregister my Azure subscription and it says to first remove online protection from the protection group.  Talk about a catch 22.  What should I do?

Azure backup with Data Protection Manager - a black box ?

May 6, 2013, 1:11 am

Been working with online backup using System Center 2012 SP1 Data Protection Manager and Windows Azure Backup Agent for about a week now.

At best, this feels like working with a mystery black box. The transparency in the setup equals zero.

I have a protection group where all protected members shall have online recovery points every saturday.

  • One Source got an Online recovery point last saturday.
  • When I check scheduled jobs for Online recovery only that one source has a scheduled Online recovery point job.
  • When I check the Recovery panel to see recovery points for that source my only option is Recover from: Disk, there is no way I can see if there is an online recovery point or not.
  • I can create an online recovery point manually by selecting one of the other sources and this is successfully created, however it is not scheduled for a new job next saturday.
  • In Management the Online Agent reports used space as 213.81 MB, however the web site on manage.windowsazure.com says my used storage is 4.43
  • There is no way of inspecting the online recovery items. DPM Management panel just shows these 213 MB (which is wrong), Recovery shows only disk-based recovery points and the management website just tells me that "You have some protected items associated with System Center - Data Protection Manager servers. We are currently not able to list protected items from these servers."

I am aware of Windows Azure Online Backup being a preview service, but this seems like an early early alpha version to me ? At least, DPM 2012 is not beta and should not behave in this "OK, will do ........<nothing happens>" matter.

I switched from Symantec to DPM 2012 due to the promising features but for the off-site backup I am very tempted to reinstall Symantec with all its quircks and misbehaviours and continue with that. At least Symantec tells me when it is misbehaving. 

For production usage, is the only current option for DPM offsite backup to use a secondary DPM server and replicate the data? 

(EDIT)UPDATE: 

I removed online protection for all but one source. Result:

Every source in the protection group was now listed in a separate group with the message "Inactive online replica available". Right.... the online replica that never was performed ? By the way, the remaining source in the protection group is now NOT scheduled for online recovery point....

I re-added all members. Remember last time I did this (as mentioned above) only 1 source was scheduled for online protection. 

This time 42 of 46 sources is scheduled for online protection. 

No errors, no information, no message at all on why the last 4 members was not included. The only way I could discover this was by counting the scheduled online recovery point jobs for this week and compare them with the number of sources in the protection group.

Is enterprise-grade backup software meant to be this random ?

I've signed up for an Azure Free Trial and am attempting to Register a Windows 2012 Server Essentials using the Online Backup Agent (v.1.0.8075.0). When attempting to Register the server it returns the error "URL configured for backup service is not valid (ID 130026). I was previously using Azure Online Backup successfully on a 6 month trial before it was discontinued. 

Presumably I need to update the URL, but don't know the correct URL to use or where to change it.

Hey everyone,

I've just installed azure backup vault on my server. I want to use it to create backups from my azure websites. I know it can't do backups straight from ftp sites but I use netdrive to give an ftp site a drive letter. Unfortunately the backup agent also doesn't recognize this drive. Does anyone know a trick or hack to get the agent to recognize this drive? Or maybe some other solution?
