Unable to restore database with SMSQL [ Edited ]

[#1]

I'm unable to restore databases with SMSQL. When I try to restore snapmanager service crashes with this error: (sorry OS is in spanish)

Anybody can help me?

Thanks.

Can you provide some details as at what stage of restore you are getting this crash ? Does it happen always or sometimes?

What is the version of SDW ,Windows and SQL Server ?Can you send the event log and SMSQL reports?

Regards,

Abhishek

Hi, the problem are in the backup sets for only three days, The backups are verified OK. When I open the backup set in SMSQL the service go down with only the error waht appears in this post.

The OS is Windows 2008 R2.

SQL server 2008 2 in cluster.

Snapdrive ver.6.4.2.5234

SMSQL ver. 5.2.0.996

I will try with powershell.

I will post backup and verify reports.

Thanks.

Cheché.-

Using PowerSell for SMSQL, the restore runs OK. It seems a problem with the GUI and SnapInfo folder data?

[#5]

We're getting the same error on wizard.

If we try to run "restore-backup" it says there's no backup-set for writed databases, but we see it on wizard.

We have same soft as cheche030.

The OS is Windows 2008 R2.

SQL server 2008 2 in cluster.

Snapdrive ver.6.4.2.5234

SMSQL ver. 5.2.0.996

Additionally, we run that OS on VMware 5.0, database 6 luns as RDM: System Databases, User Databases, Log Databases, TempDB, SnapInfo and verify.

If I run "get-backup" it only shows System Databases (master, model, msdb) but inside backup-sets there are user databases (checked on other instance)

[#6]

Can you also share the logs,error id with me ?

Thanks for your help.

In "-ServerInstance" parameter I wrote "Server\Instance" instead "Instance" alone and it was OK. Did you try with only one database?

[#9]

A little more explanation about our case:

We have 4 Instances on 2 SQL nodes MSFC on VMware 5.0 on Principal Site. 7 Lun's are RDMS's distributed like this: System Database, User Database, Log Database, TempDB, SnapInfo, verify, Backup.

We are using SMSQL & snapmirror to send Luns (System Database, User Database, Log Database and SnapInfo) to a remote site.

Jobs on SQL generated via SMSQL works. Logs says us jobs are completed 100%, fulls & transactional logs.

On 3 Instances there are no errors when we would restore from the last tlog (last error reported on wizard Fune2k8 was license key not founded, but error persists on Instance SHP2k8)

If i run script with one database on remote site:

PS C:\Program Files\IBM\SnapManager for SQL Server> restore-backup -Server "SRVV
SQL03\shp2k8" -ServerInstance "shp2k8" -Database "WSS_Content_Everis" -SnapInfoD

Number of Backups = 6.

That's a bit strange because if a run same script on other Instances it only shows me System Databases, but the wizard restore works well.

Thanks for your help!

[#10]

I've uninstalled .net framework 3.5.1 and then install it again: the problem persists. I've installed several VisualC++ runtime libraries: the problem persists.

More data&colon; Two node SQL 2008 R2 clúster. All instances on all nodes are affected by error.

The backup and verify reports are all ok.
