Access Deny for RmMetaData<\/h2>\n

Symptom:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The server backup failed with incomplete instance in backup history. You will find Event ID\u00a0547\u00a0<\/strong>in event viewer under Application, Windows Logs. In the General info of this event, it shows a path of server backup log file in following format.<\/p>\n

The backup operation that started at ‘\u200e2012\u200e-\u200e03\u200e-\u200e31T07:00:05.748719600Z’ has encountered errors for the volume(s) ‘F:’. Log of files not successfully backed up ‘C:\\Windows\\Logs\\WindowsServerBackup\\Backup_Error-31-03-2012_02-00-05.log’.<\/p>\n

Follow the above file path to open the server backup log, and it will have info like following:<\/p>\n

Error in backup of F:\\$Extend\\$RmMetadata\\$TxfLog\\ during write: Error [0x80070005] Access is denied.<\/p>\n

Error in backup of F:\\$Extend\\$RmMetadata\\$TxfLog\\$TxfLog.blf during write: Error [0x80070005] Access is denied.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Root Cause:<\/strong><\/p>\n

This happened on NTFS format driver that has file level configuration for server backup only. $RmMetaData is for NTFS internal data which cannot be accessed by other process.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Resolution:<\/strong><\/p>\n

You have two options to work around this issue.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. You can change the server backup policy on the impacted volume as Block Level Backup, which means the whole volume should be selected for backup.<\/li>\n
  2. You can set the registry key to exclude these files during File Level Backup. These files are used for NTFS file system, and there is no harm to ignore them.<\/li>\n
  3. \u00a0<\/strong>Go to<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    HKLM\\SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Control\\BackupRestore\\FilesNotToBackup<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Adding a Multi-String Value named\u00a0IgnoreNTFS<\/strong>\u00a0with data\u00a0\\<\/strong>$Extend\\* \/s<\/strong>\u00a0under\u00a0FilesNotToBackup<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
    2. Restart the server.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
