Der RPC-Server ist nicht verfügbar. RPC function call failed. Function name: [DoRpc]


Hello to everyone,

 

from yesterday I am receiving this error.

 

Veeam Backup & Replication 12 Community E. (today updated to v. 12.1.2.172) installed at Windows Server 2016

VMware Tools at the Veeam Server is the newest / Kompatibility OK

Windows Updates the latest. Firewall disabled.

 

3 Jobs (to the local / virtual HDD and to the NAS Server). Everything was just fine. Same error before the Veeam Update and after the update.

 

Backup mode: Reverse incremental / VSphere VMware Tools quiescence is and was disabled

 

Credentials Test completely OK

All Infrastructure re-scanned OK

 

I have also tried to completely delete one job from disk and start a new one: still the same error.

 

Veeam Server has been rebooted many times already, other Virtual Machines will be rebooted at the evening.

 

This is what the log is showing up:

Could you help please or give any direction what to check?

Thank you. Have a nice day.

I would first start checking the logs for the job that is failing here - C:\ProgramData\Veeam\Baclup\JobName

If that shows nothing you will need to open a support ticket as this community is not technical support.

Hi @Kralik -

There are a couple Veeam KBs on this type of error, but not to your specific one you could look at to see if the steps in them resolve your issue. 

https://www.veeam.com/kb1174
https://www.veeam.com/kb2065

Otherwise as Chris shared, your best bet is to open a Veeam Support case.

Understood.

 

We have found also, that the Filesystem of the backup HDD should be really standard NTFS and not as Veeam requested (ReFS - 64KB), so the Results were today better.

 

And after reboot of all VMs, I think, the RPC Service has been also “renewed”. 

 

I am going to search further.

 

Thank you
