failed retryable state… ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★ TIMMCMICMarch 11, 201247 Share 0 0 In Exchange 2007 and Exchange 2010 many customers are leveraging VSS based backups to how to restart microsoft exchange writer retain and protect their Exchange data. By default Exchange provides two different microsoft exchange writer retryable error exchange 2007 VSS writers that share the same VSS writer ID but are loaded by two different services. The first microsoft exchange writer state 12 failed is the Exchange Information Store VSS writer and the second is the Exchange Replication Service VSS writer. The Information Store writer allows for the backup of active / mounted databases exchange writer waiting for completion and the replication service writer allows for the backup of passive databases (should a replicated database model 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.

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.

with exchange, one of the first things i look for are the VSS writers. These writers create a snapshot function for https://vanbrenk.blogspot.com/2014/03/vss-writer-showing-retryable-error-and.html Windows and third party backup products. If the status shown is "Retryable error", "Waiting for completion" and a status other than "Stable" things might go wrong. I say might because the error shown is the writers last state, not the actual state. To check the status in a command box: vssadmin list writers To check the status in Powershell: & vssadmin list writers | Select-String -Context 0,4 '^writer name:' | ? { $_.Context.PostContext[2].Trim() -ne "state: [1] stable" -or $_.Context.PostContext[3].Trim() -ne "last error: no error" } Or: vssadmin list writers | fl name,state,last* All show this output: PS C:\> vssadmin list writers | fl name,state,last* vssadmin 1.1 - Volume Shadow microsoft exchange writer Copy Service administrative command-line tool (C) Copyright 2001-2005 Microsoft Corp.
