DPM 2012 ILR failing

[Simcfc73]

Hi,

 

I've had this issue a while and cant get my head round what it is.. I keep finding what I think is a cause but then something else messes up.

 

I have a DPM server backing up my servers, its always been reliable until recently. Only changes are my AV but its not that (I am almost 50% sure)

 

When I do a backup it can hang at 0% for hours, I have to reboot the client to get it back working, this is my home folder drives so its a pain... oh and shadow copy stopped working. I've reinstalled this server so I cant see it being the OS.

 

After its backed up I click on the vhd in DPM and I get the same window on all my servers about dpm cannot browse as it contains a dynamic (it doesn't) , no volume (it has) etc...

 

What I found today was a new server which I migrated my SIMS across to has been doing ILR for a week.. until I added the DPM client to the OS so I could do a backup of the SQL. This has never been an issue before and when I look at my other servers its the same issue, I have an exchange server where I backup the mailboxes separately... same error.

 

I was worried the DPM wasn't backing up my data as the vhds didn't contain data but I have recovered them and they are fine.

 

Anyone seen this? I don't think its a DPM issue.. its that lovely VSS service.
