Repository does not exist
Upgrade failed: Repository does not exist
Challenge
After upgrading Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 to version 1.5 or 2.0, out of date repository upgrade fails with an “Upgrade failed: Repository does not exist” error.The following can be found in the proxy log files:
[Timestamp] 99 (6232) Error: Access is denied [Timestamp] 99 (6232) Stack: [Timestamp] 99 (6232) at Veeam.Engine.FreeSpaceController.FreeSpaceInfo.GetFreeSpaceInfo(String uncPath) at Veeam.Archiver.Proxy.ProxyFileSystemProvider.GetFreeSpaceInfo(String path) at Veeam.Archiver.Proxy.Proxy.ProxyFileSystemService.GetDiskInfo(String path) at Veeam.Archiver.Proxy.Proxy.ProxyAdmin2.GetDiskInfo(String path) at SyncInvokeGetDiskInfo(Object , Object[] , Object[] ) at System.ServiceModel.Dispatcher.SyncMethodInvoker.Invoke(Object instance, Object[] inputs, Object[]& outputs) at System.ServiceModel.Dispatcher.DispatchOperationRuntime.InvokeBegin(MessageRpc& rpc) at System.ServiceModel.Dispatcher.ImmutableDispatchRuntime.ProcessMessage5(MessageRpc& rpc) at System.ServiceModel.Dispatcher.ImmutableDispatchRuntime.ProcessMessage11(MessageRpc& rpc) at System.ServiceModel.Dispatcher.MessageRpc.Process(Boolean isOperationContextSet)
Cause
This issue occurs if the services were running under a domain account prior to the upgrade and the repository was located on an SMB share. After upgrading to v1.5 or v.2.0, access to this share may be lost, because services in the new version run under the local system account.Solution
Give the account running the services on your Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 server access rights to the repository ([DOMAIN\]VBOSERVERNAME$). Do not change this account for Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 Service.More Information
If the repository was accessed via an administrative share (e.g. c$), this needs to be changed to a direct path to the repository.Tape job fails with “The specified network resource or device is no longer available” or “The system cannot find the file specified. Problem with CreateFile in '\\.\Tape0'”
Challenge
Tape job fails with the following error messages:“The system cannot find the file specified. Problem with CreateFile in '\\.\Tape0'. The system cannot find the file specified.”
“The system cannot find the path specified.”
“The specified network name is no longer available”
Cause
The issue occurs when the tape drive is reinitialized within the operating system while the job is actively writing to it.Solution
Disable “Portable Device Enumerator Service” on Veeam tape server.Service is by default in manual startup mode (Triggered) and we need to set it manually into the Disabled state.
