Monday, June 18, 2012 6:59 PM
I configured Backup of SCCM 2012 on my site Primary.
I indicated folder in other server for my Backup of SCCM and SQL, I started all services of Backup in two servers and I gave permission for Everyone in the Sharing and Security.
This is image of my SCCM, in tab Backup Site Server Properties:
This is log of archive smsbkup.log
Can anyone help me?
Regards,
Thiago Batista.

Just figured this out. Change your SMS-VSS_Writers service account to run as a domain account that has access to that folder. Once I changed it to one of our SCCM service accounts and restarted the VSS-Writers service, I then kicked off the backup and it was then able to write to the UNC path.

The error message indicates a failure to access the UNC you specified. You must grant the computer account for the site server and SQL sever full control on this UNC.

Hello Jason Sandys,
I granted permission for two servers in this UNC, and I granted for Everyone both for folder and Sharing.
I used Administrator and user member of Admins Domain.

I used Administrator and user member of Admins Domain.
Just to confirm: have you added the *computer accounts* of the servers? That's needed as Jason already mentioned. The error message is unambiguous.

Yes, I added the computer accounts of two servers with permission in the folder and sharing and I added the computer accounts in the group Administrators of Server have folder, and the two servers (with SCCM and SQL).

When running the backup, are there any corresponding events in the security log of the system hosting the shared folder?
Just to clarify and make sure there are no language issues, when you say "folder and sharing", you mean you granted the two computer accounts Full Control at the share level of the SCCM_BACKUP share *and* Full Control at the NTFS level of the folder being shared as SCCM_BACKUP?
If so, did you do this directly or via a domain security group?

- When running the backup, are there any corresponding events in the security log of the system hosting the shared folder?
In the server where have folder for Backup, I don't received events and I don't received events in SQL Server, but I received events in the server of SCCM.
This is log on SCCM Server:
On 19/06/2012 02:00:48, component SMS_COMPONENT_STATUS_SUMMARIZER on computer srv...com.br reported: Component Status Summarizer set the status of component "SMS_SITE_BACKUP" running on computer "srv...COM.BR" to Warning.
Possible cause: The component is experiencing a problem.
Solution: Diagnose and fix the problem by:
1. Examine the status messages that the component reports.
2. Correcting the problem.
3. Instructing Component Status Summarizer to reset the counts of Error, Warning, and/or Informational status messages reported by the component. To reset the counts, right-click Reset Counts on the component in the Component Status summary in the Configuration Manager Console. When the counts are reset, Component Status Summarizer will change the status of the component to OK. This might take some time if site "SITE" is a child site.
4. Deleting any unwanted status messages from the site database, if necessary.
5. Monitor the component occasionally to verify the problem does not reoccur.
Possible cause: The component is OK and you were unnecessarily alerted because the Component Status Thresholds are set too low for the component.
Solution: Increase the Component Status Thresholds for the component using the Thresholds tab of the Component Status Summarizer Properties dialog box in the Configuration Manager Console.
Possible cause: The component is "flooding" the status system by rapidly reporting the same message repeatedly.
Solution: Diagnose and control the flood of status messages by:
1. Verifying that the component is actually flooding the status system. View the status messages reported by the component, and verify that the same message is continually reported every several minutes or seconds.
2. Noting the Message ID of the flooded status message.
*3. Creating a Status Filter Rule for site "WRA" that instructs Status Manager to discard the flooded status message when component "SMS_SITE_BACKUP" on computer "SRV...COM.BR" reports it. *
4. Verifying that your sites' databases were not filled up by the flooded status message. Delete any duplicate status messages from the site database, if necessary.
5. Refer to the Microsoft Knowledge Base for further troubleshooting information.
And this is other log:
On 19/06/2012 02:06:07, component SMS_SITE_SYSTEM_STATUS_SUMMARIZER on computer ...com.br reported: Site System Status Summarizer detected that the storage object "\...COM.BR\C$\SMS_...COM.BR" on site system "\...com.br" has 5366160 KB of free storage space, which is less than or equal to the Warning Free Space Threshold of 10485760 KB.
Possible cause: The storage object is almost full.
Solution: Make more space available on the storage object by deleting unneeded files.
Possible cause: The Warning Free Space Threshold is set too high for this storage object.
Solution: Decrease the Warning Free Space Threshold in the Configuration Manager Console by navigating to the Site Hierarchy --> SITE --> Site Settings --> Status Summarizers --> Site System Status Summarizer, right-clicking Properties, selecting the Thresholds tab, and creating or adjusting the specific thresholds for this storage object.
Site System Status Summarizer will now set the status of the storage object to Warning in the Site System Status summary in the Configuration Manager Console.
- Just to clarify and make sure there are no language issues, when you say "folder and sharing", you mean you granted the two computer accounts Full Control at the share level of the SCCM_BACKUP share *and* Full Control at the NTFS level of the folder being shared as SCCM_BACKUP?
Sorry, my English it's basic.
Yes, I granted Full Control at the share level of the SCCM_BACKUP share and Full Control at NTFS level.
- If so, did you do this directly or via a domain security group?
Directly.
Thanks, Thiago Batista.

I have the same issue. I even tried to use a wide open share (Everyone - ful control for both share and NTFS permissions) - nothing helps. I can access the share using UNC path and create there any files/folders using Windows explorer though. :(

UPDATE: I configured separate backup for SCCm data and SQL database (I am using a remote SQL cluster):
SCCM - locally on SCCM
SQL - locally on SQL
it works this way (so Thiago can use it as a workaround). But fails as soon as I try to use a file share (located on SCCM server)

I can access the share using UNC path and create there any files/folders using Windows explorer though. :(
The account of the logged-in user will be used then. You could open a cmd in system context (using psexec -i -s cmd) and double check access to the UNC path again (using dir and md etc).

I have experienced this same exact problem in two different environments. Basically, SC01 is the SCCM server, SC02 is a SQL server. I am using a file share on SC01 that is wide-open on both NTFS and share permissions, and I get the same error.
I do not think it is permissions, because before the error, I am seeing this error...
- Component 6 - 001Backup\SiteDBServer\SMSbkSQLSiteDB.dat.
- Dependency On SQL Writer , LogicalPath:\SC01, ComponentName:CM_001
- After GatherWriterMetadata SMS Writer status = FAILED_AT_PREPARE_BACKUP.
- Error: VSS_E_WRITERERROR_TIMEOUT. Error Code = 0x80,042,3f2.
- Info: Sending message to start the SQL Backup...
A few lines and seconds later, I get the same error as Thiago. And I am seeing identical behavior in 2 environments configured similarly... mine and a customers.

Have you already checked "vssadmin list writers" and smswriter.log?
Torsten Meringer | http://www.mssccmfaq.de
Wednesday, July 25, 2012 1:01 PM
I have also run into this issue. The setup is:
SCCM server
SQL server
File server
The backup targets the share "SCCMBackup" on the file server. A folder named "SITECODEBackup" is created in the SCCMBackup directory, but that's were the process appears to fail. I receive the same errors as others have referenced above. I do not receive any errors in my smswriter.log. The SCCM and SQL servers have been explicitly granted full share and folder rights on the file server. I'm running through a few tests to see what permutations work and which do not.

The account of the logged-in user will be used then. You could open a cmd in system context (using psexec -i -s cmd) and double check access to the UNC path again (using dir and md etc).
Tried access the shared folder using psexec - works fine. And it can create <SITECODE>Backup sibfolder there, so it looks like permissions are ok. VSSADMIN on SQL shows SQLServerWriter is ok. No errors in smswriter.log.

I'm also currently encountering this same issue as above. Nothing I have tried seems to work.
Wednesday, July 25, 2012 4:43 PM
Just figured this out. Change your SMS-VSS_Writers service account to run as a domain account that has access to that folder. Once I changed it to one of our SCCM service accounts and restarted the VSS-Writers service, I then kicked off the backup and it was then able to write to the UNC path.
Interesting... so Access for the computer account is not enough if the service is running under Local System??? Do you have your SQL colocated or on a remote box?

Wednesday, July 25, 2012 7:07 PM
Yea, I was working with our SCCM Microsoft rep. It wasn't listed anywhere. I have SQL colocated on a remote box. So when we made these changes, it worked like a champ. Everywhere its listed in documentation is just having the computer account having rights to the share, but even with EVERYONE listed with full rights, still wasn't working. Don't ask my why it works this way.
Wednesday, July 25, 2012 7:20 PM
Great, thank you for sharing. So this domain account should have Full rights to the backup share and set as a login account for SMS_VSS_Writer on SCCM itself, any rights on SQL for this account?

Wednesday, July 25, 2012 7:28 PM
Correct. I did not specify any SQL rights for this account. Granted, the account I used was a domain admin account, but I do not think this matters. I have not tested on a non-domain user account, but I feel a domain user account will work because I think the issue is it is trying to use the System account. Not really sure where the problem actually lies. Keep me posted on your testing, maybe we can narrow it down.

Wednesday, July 25, 2012 8:40 PM
Just a domain account (aven being a Local Admin on SCCM) does not work - it tries to read a control file accessing SQL database. Looks like it have to have at least Read rights to a site database. Otherwise fails with
*** [42000][229][Microsoft][SQL Server Native Client 10.0][SQL Server]The SELECT permission was denied on the object 'SiteControl', database 'CM_<site>', schema 'dbo'.
and cannot start VSS SMS Writer during backup (even though SMS_SITE_VSS_WRITER service is statred)

Interesting. My domain admin account worked that I used. Looking at it, it does have read rights to the database. If you give it rights to the database, does it work?

Hi. May be problem in UNC path.
Read this Configmgr 2012 backup site server task on UNC error
Try to create sub-folder in UNC.

Subfolder did not help, but thank you very much for the link (http://blogs.technet.com/b/configurationmgr/archive/2012/08/01/support-tip-a-backup-site-server-maintenance-task-may-fail-to-run-in-configmgr-2012.aspx) you put in your blog.
Looks like this is a bug in SCCM 2012.
I used a workaround #3 from the Microsoft article and created a share on SQL - that works.

Hey Guys,
Same issue here. I have a remote SQL server and my backups are failing identically to yours. I ran into two changes required to resolve this issue.
1. on the remote sql server, add sysadmin role to the NT Authority\System account.
2. on both my MP server and my remote SQL server, i had a domain security group added to the local administrators account which housed these server names. This did not work for the backup function. After adding the individual computer accounts into each others local administrators group along with step 1 above, backups are cruising right along.
Hope this helps someone else.
Saturday, November 9, 2013 2:49 AM
I was facing same issue in ConfigMgr 2012 SP1 and R2. After doing some tests, I found that following permissions are sufficient for successful backup. It is working fine for me.
I am taking backup on database server's (DBServer) shared folder. \DBServer\Backup
1. SiteServer
NTFS Permissions on \DBServer\Backup - SiteServer$ => Modify
Shared Permissions on \DBServer\Backup - SiteServer$ => Change
2. DBServer (Local Account & not AD object)
NTFS Permission on \DBServer\Backup - System => Modify
Shared Permissions on \DBServer\Backup - System => Change
And yes, system entry should look like above on shared permissions as well as NTFS :-)
Hope that will save your time.

Just ran into this myself. I have SCCM installed on one server, SQL installed on a remote server. I want the backup to reside in one directory on the SCCM server so I configured the SCCM backup task to back up to a UNC path on the site server. I set up the share and granted share and NTFS permissions to the site server computer account and the SQL server computer account but the SQL backup task was failing on accessing the folder. ERROR: SQL Backup task failed. Error message - Error: Backup folder \MISSCCMPRI01\SCCMBackup$ does not exist or backup service does not have permission to access the folder. I changed the SMS_SITE_SQL_BACKUP_%SITESERVERNAMEFQDN% service on the SQL server to use a domain account and gave that account permissions to the share on the site server. After that the backup runs successfully.

I'm not sure where to go on this. I've tried a bunch of things like permissions, local vs., remote backup target.

I have crated a DFS share named " SCCMBackup" and gave Read/Modify permissions for Primary site server and SQL computer accounts
Error: Backup folder \SCCMBackup does not exist or backup service does not have permission to access the folder.

Did you grant NTFS **and** share permissions?
Have you tried accessing the folder from both servers using their local SYSTEM account (by using psexec)?
Why use the built-in backup at all though? Using a standard SQL backup is much better for many reasons.

+1. Use native SQL backup. For CB do not forget to save cd.latest folder.
Kent has a nice post on it: http://blog.coretech.dk/kea/configuring-backup-in-configmgr-current-branch

Yes, I have granted NTFS and share permissions (Modify/Read/Write/Read&Execute) on Shared folder for or Primary site server and SQL computer accounts
I am running SCCM CB 1610 , I have regular SQL Backup as part of Maintenance plan , and hope SQL backup is still valid for restoring the database , but re-installing SCCM CB as part of recovery process We should started by running setup.exe from the cd.latest folder(The CD.Latest folder is automatically copied by the SCCM Site built-in Backup task in SCCMCB . So that I have planned for built-in backup for site recovery.

> "and hope SQL backup is still valid for restoring the database "
No hope needed. We wouldn't recommend it unless it as supported and worked. Always keep in mind though that there are other things to backup as documented in the Backup and Recovery documentation on docs.microsoft.com including cd.latest, your custom reports, your content, your WSUS DB, your configuration.mof and anything else you may have customized.
For cd.latest, yes, it's included in the built in backup, but so what? There's no reason you can't manually back it up also. Or better yet, add it to your enterprise backup plan and tool along with the SQL backup and the other items I noted which the built in task does **not** do.

I have the site backup landing on a secondary hard drive directly on the SQL server. That was how I was able to navigate the permission issues. Our backup software comes along and scoops that up to our enterprise backup disk storage location plus we Veeam the whole server to our DR site.

Nothing explicitly wrong with that except it doesn't include the other essential items that need to be backed up. It also isn't compressed and scheduling is quirky at best. It's also backing up a lot of things -- like the site inboxes -- that are thrown away if you do a restore.
