BackupExec 10.0 with a SharePoint agent.

  Asked By: Stacey Bryant         Date: Nov 03, 2006      Category: MOSS      Views: 372
 

We have a SharePoint Portal Server 2003 production environment and would

like to copy this environment over to our test environment for test upgrades

to MOSS 2007. I've been using the SharePoint Portal Server 2003 Backup and

Restore tool just as a supplementary solution along with BackupExec 10.0 with

a SharePoint agent. My guess is that it's just to use the Backup and Restore

tool on our prod env. and then do a restore with these files on our test env.

The thing is, we recently upgraded our backend from SQL Server 2000 to SQL

Server 2005, and now the Backup and Restore tool fails to backup the SITEDBS

but succeeds in backing up the INDEX.

Here's the output from the backup logfile:

information, see the Microsoft Windows Event Log on that server.

To me it sort of looks like there are some permissions that might be wrong.

Are there additional permissions needed once the server has been updated to

SQL 2005?

I have, btw, installed the Client Connectivity tools on the SharePoint

server from the SQL 2005 CD.

Any ideas?

Did you run the stsadm.exe after upgrading? I think you need to do this. Also, you need to ensure that you are running service pack 2 on sharepoint  or you won't be able to run SQL 2005 either. I did not see anything that talked about upgrading existing content from SQL 2000 to 2005, only stuff about new installations using 2005 but I am sure its out there. Here is a link to MS articles

Have you installed the sql 2005 tools on your front end web server  ? you need these installed or it wont do the backup

I did install the SQL 2005 client connectivity tools on our front end. However, I do believe I did it and hoped it would upgrade the existing SQL 2000 client tools. So after the install of the ’05 tools I ran an uninstall of the 2000 tools and I’ve also installed the ’05 tools again. But I keep getting the error.

I found a blog out there describing a quite similar issue:
