I have installed Azure Backup Client on a Windows 2008 R2 sp1 computer.
Originally, backups were set to run at 20:30 each evening. However, when checking, I have found:
1) the backups have not run
2) There is no record in the azure MMC console of the job running or failing
3) under task scheduler, the task is still running
4) each hour a new instance of the "Microsoft-OnlineBackup-RetryFailedJobs" task starts but, again, no events to say its running or failing.
5) there are no entries in the event log for these backups.
I have manually run the backup a number of times (logged on as myself) and it works fine. This morning at 10:14, I changed the job so it only backs up 1 folder and runs at 10:15 - that way I could monitor the job as it ran (or didn't!!!)
