During the restore of a vRanger backup to Recovery Manager for Exchange an error may be presented which is similar to:
"An error occurred when replaying logs from 'D:\Recovery Manager Sources\QS2c4ee1ad\': One or more logs that were committed to this database, are missing. These log files are required to maintain durable ACID semantics, but not required to maintain consistency if the JET_bitReplayIgnoreLostLogs bit is specified during recovery."
Or
"An error occurred when replaying logs from X:\Recovery Manager Sources\Q553a52d77\': The required log files for recovery is missing"
An additional error similar to this may also be seen even when using Windows 2008:
"Access to the path 'C:\Documents and Settings' is denied."
These errors may occur as the restore process begins or may occur hours after the process begins.
Add a line to the Freeze.bat file to effectively create a pause to allow the VSS service to flush all files before creating the snapshot.
The line should look like this:
Ping localhost -n 100
And it should appear immediately after the line with your drive letters
The resultant Freeze.bat file should look similar to:
echo off
if "%1" == "freeze" goto doFreeze
goto EOF
:doFreeze
"c:\program files\quest\vzShadow\vzshadow.exe" -bc=c:\backup.xml C: E: F:
Ping localhost -n 100
:EOF
Note: The above steps will only work for Backups on a Go forward basis. If you can restore the Backup to an alternative location you can run a hard repair on the backup and then be able to add it to storage in the Recovery Manager Console.
