I am running SMSQL 7.2.0.2184 on Windows 2012 R2 with SnapDrive 7.1. The SQL Server is SQL Server 2012 SP2. I am having a heck of a time getting scheduled backup jobs to run.
If I run the backup wizard via SMSQL and manually execute a backup, the backup works fine. When I attempt to schedule the job I get the following behaviors.
1. I enter the name of my job. I want to run it as a SQL Server Agent Job. My servername is in the dialog box. When I click OK I get the error.
"An error occured while processing SQL Agent Job Creation. An error occured while processing SQL Agent Jog creation. The specified @server_name("myserver.company.com") does not exist."
I click OK and browse to my server "myserver.company.com" then check the box Replace job if exists and click OK. I then get the error
"An error occured while processing SQL Agent Job Creation. An error occured while processing SQL Agent Jog creation. The specified @server_name("myserver.company.com") does not exist."
I then uncheck the 'Replace Job if it exists' box then get the error
"A job by name: BackupJob already exists in the server MYSERVER.COMPANY.COM"
Funny, it just told me twice that the server doesn't exist, but now the job already exists...
So in SQL Server Agent Jobs, the job exists and the command it is sending is this:
"C:\Program Files\NetApp\SnapManager for SQL Server\SmsqlJobLauncher.exe" new-backup –svr 'MYSERVER.COMPANY.COM' -ver –verInst 'MYSERVER.COMPANY.COM' -mp –mpdir 'C:\Luns\SQL_SnapInfo\SMSQL_SnapInfo' -RetainBackupDays 7 -RetainShareBackups 7 -cpylgbkshare NOTHING_TOSHARE -lb -bksif -RetainSnapofSnapInfoDays 7 -rudays 7 -updmir –mgmt daily
If I tell SQL Agent to run the job, the job fails with the error:
Message
Executed as user: COMPANY\administrator. The step did not generate any output. Process Exit Code -1. The step failed.
I have the following errors in event log
Event ID 304 - Error code 0xc0040803 - SnapInfo registry key is not set or it has invalid entities. You may need to re-run Configuration Wizard (I have many times)
