Lennart_T 151 Report post Posted February 4, 2016 File "C:\Windows]System32\winevt\logs\DFS Replication.evtx"; didn't compare It is a log file. It has changed between the time it was backed up and the time it was compared. It is normal for log files to change at any time. Not to worry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
comspec 0 Report post Posted February 5, 2016 Thanks. How about the "different creation time/date" errors? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lennart_T 151 Report post Posted February 5, 2016 Probably a temporary file that has been deleted and recreated in the same time period. (The one I mentioned above). For more definitive answer, please post excerpt from the log. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
comspec 0 Report post Posted February 17, 2016 How about some of these errors? How might I correct these? Thanks in advance.

Lennart_T 151 Report post Posted February 17, 2016 The first errors can be corrected by either: 1) Shut down the MS SQL database prior to backup. 2) Buy the Microsoft SQL Server Agent add-on. The last error is due to insufficient permissions. The Retrospect user must be a member of certain groups. http://www.retrospect.com/au/documentation/user_guide/win/getting_started#50458635_82336 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scillonian 52 Report post Posted February 17, 2016 (edited) Lennart's answer is more likely correct (I have no experience with Microsoft SQL Server). Do you have the 'Open File Backup' add-on? Without this add-on Retrospect cannot backup files that are actively open in another application – in this case presumably Microsoft SQL Server. (I think this add-on will also allow Retrospect to access the files in the 'F:\System Volume Information' folder.)
