How To Restart Microsoft Exchange Writer
Exchange provides two different VSS writers that share the same VSS writer ID but microsoft exchange writer retryable error exchange 2007 are loaded by two different services. The first is the Exchange Information Store VSS writer and the second is the Exchange
Microsoft Exchange Writer State 12 Failed
Replication Service VSS writer. The Information Store writer allows for the backup of active / mounted databases and the replication service writer allows for the backup of passive databases (should a replicated database model exchange writer waiting for completion be utilized). You can see the writers by running the command VSSADMIN LIST WRITERS from a command prompt. Here is a sample put of a VSSAdmin List Writers from a Windows 2008 R2 SP1 server with Exchange 2010 SP1. Note how both writers share the same writer ID within the VSS framework. Writer name: ‘Microsoft Exchange Replica Writer' Writer Id: {76fe1ac4-15f7-4bcd-987e-8e1acb462fb7} Writer Instance Id: {17e8df11-a8a2-4ee3-a3fb-e552b7da2d83} microsoft exchange writer waiting for completion retryable error State: [1] Stable Last error: No error Writer name: ‘Microsoft Exchange Writer' Writer Id: {76fe1ac4-15f7-4bcd-987e-8e1acb462fb7} Writer Instance Id: {e0ad4b68-8938-4be5-9b88-4c74df2b2d65} State: [1] Stable Last error: No error In the course of protecting Exchange servers there maybe conditions that cause a backup job to fail. When an Exchange backup job fails the VSS framework aborts the backup and subsequently Exchange clears the backup in progress settings. When a failure is encountered either a single Exchange writer or both Exchange writers maybe left in a FAILED RETRYABLE state. We can utilize VSSAdmin List Writers again to query the writer status and see these results. Here is an example showing the Exchange Replication Service writer with a status 8 FAILED last error RETRYABLE. Writer name: ‘Microsoft Exchange Replica Writer' Writer Id: {76fe1ac4-15f7-4bcd-987e-8e1acb462fb7} Writer Instance Id: {17e8df11-a8a2-4ee3-a3fb-e552b7da2d83} State: [8] Failed Last error: Retryable error Writer name: ‘Microsoft Exchange Writer' Writer Id: {76fe1ac4-15f7-4bcd-987e-8e1acb462fb7} Writer Instance Id: {e0ad4b68-8938-4be5-9b88-4c74df2b2d65} State: [1] Stable Last error: No error Now the typical question that comes up at this point is how do I actually deal with an Exchange writer that consistently disallows backups.
