Question

File share secondary job problem


Hello.

This is my first post here.

Please let me know if I'm doing anything wrong.

 

I'm using Veeam Community version 12.1.1.56 and since I updated to this version, my "file share" backups have been experiencing issues.

I have two backup jobs of this type.

The problem I'm going to report only occurs when I activate the option "Configure secondary destinations for this job" within "Backup Repository" in the job properties.

If I create a backup job now, it will execute the task normally. However, on the following days, Veeam starts to encounter problems. It always copies the files in the primary job normally, every day, but in the secondary jobs, it immediately starts the task along with the primary job and the logs show the following error:

The log above is from a job that starts every day at 7:00 PM. Shouldn't the secondary job only start after the completion of the primary job?

If I try to run, the next day, the secondary job that had a problem, it runs, copies the data for the day, and then generates several identical lines showing that it didn't copy anything else, taking some time to process the next backup step.

Yesterday I backed up less than 2GB and it took several hours to get close to the end. Here's an example:

I had skipped running this secondary job for a few days to observe its behavior.

This also happens with the other file backup job:

 

I don't know what to do.

In the logs within the folder C:\ProgramData\Veeam\Backup, in the task logs, I didn't find any clue as to what could be causing this. Could you help me?

I’d recommend a ticket with support at this point. You could try the R&D forums as well as sometimes support personal are in there, but often they will want a ticket number for things like this.

Thank you, but to be able to open a ticket I will need a licencing for the paid version.

I’ll try to reinstall everything.

The issue occurs with external hard drives or any type of secondary repository I use. I even tried with the internal repository (internal hard drive on the server), and the error occurs whenever I activate the secondary destination of the Job. 

Having the same issue, and glad I found this thread.  We have secondary targets to a repository and to a usb.  If I re-run the secondary copy jobs manually, they complete; however, my backup to USB job runs for hours before completing, even though the first copy restore point Duration is 2 minutes.

 

I’m creating a new job to see if there was an issue with the old job during the upgrade process.  I’ll update this thread, probably after the weekend.  If it fails, I’ll likely open a ticket with support since we have a paid license.

 

Created the job and still have an error.   Scenario:  File backup to local repo, two Secondary targets (one to USB, one to on-prem repository).

At this time: the original File Backup is successful

One of the Backup Copys that run is successful, but has a lot of “Copying restore point (0 B)” information, adding a fair amount of time for the job to finish.

first secondary backup Successful​​​​​

 

The other Backup Copy that runs fails.

failed backup copy

 

If I rerun (retry) the failed job, it is successful

show job history including manual retry

 

This started happening after the upgrade to the latest 12.1.  History on these jobs before are all successful, and successful jobs do not show the numerous “Copying restore point (0 B)” messages.

Well, short story long, I ended up removing all “Secondary Targets” on the original File Backup job and created two new individual File Backup jobs to the alternate repositories.  So far, it’s been behaving just fine.  I would say that the issue with secondary targets shouldn’t be expected behavior.  Unfortunately, I just need it to work and move on to other tasks as I don’t have time to really troubleshoot or deal with support for now.  Thanks again for creating this post, OP.
