Hello,
I am having a problem creating backups for a database. I am using the Backup Task in SSIS and executing the SSIS package against a SQL Server 2000 database. Sometimes the backup is successful, but recently the failure rate has increased with the following messages listed in the log:
[Execute SQL Task] Error: Executing the query "BACKUP DATABASE [Galaxy] TO DISK = N'\\mindata02\Data_D\DEVSQL6\Galaxy\Galaxy_backup_200706070927.bak' WITH NOFORMAT, NOINIT, NAME = N'Galaxy_backup_20070607092724', SKIP, REWIND, NOUNLOAD, STATS = 10 " failed with the following error: "BACKUP DATABASE is terminating abnormally. 10 percent backed up. 20 percent backed up. 30 percent backed up. 40 percent backed up. 50 percent backed up. 60 percent backed up. 70 percent backed up. 80 percent backed up. 90 percent backed up. Processed 4503024 pages for database 'Galaxy', file 'Galaxy_Data' on file 1. Processed 9360 pages for database 'Galaxy', file 'Galaxy_IDX' on file 1. 100 percent backed up. Processed 59228 pages for database 'Galaxy', file 'Galaxy_Log' on file 1.". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
MessageBackupDiskFile::RequestDurableMedia: failure on backup device '\\mindata02\Data_D\DEVSQL6\Galaxy\Galaxy_backup_200706070927.bak'. Operating system error 64(The specified network name is no longer available.).
If anyone has encountered the Operating System Error 64(The specified network name is no longer available) or Operating System Error 59(An unexpected network error arrived) and has some recommendations it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for the help.
From the error message it is clear there is a netwroking problem. Are you able to ping server where you are backing to ?
