Hi we use Microsoft Virtual Server to host other Windows Servers. And when I try so backup, in 80% of the times, I get this error:

Waring 210: Thread 0 warning:
Warning 210: ERror writing to backup file: E:\SQLBacup\Hourly\DIFF_(local)_BM_20081013_120000.sqb
Warning: System error 1117 (The request could not be performed because og an I/O device error)

Thread 0 error:
Error 620: Error writing to backup file(s).

Any help appreciated

best regard

    Were there any errors recorded in the Windows event logs?

  • Yes, this is the error.

    The operating system returned error 1117(The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error.) to SQL Server during a write at offset 0x00000000470000 in file 'E:\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\DATA\tempdb.mdf'. Additional messages in the SQL Server error log and system event log may provide more detail. This is a severe system-level error condition that threatens database integrity and must be corrected immediately. Complete a full database consistency check (DBCC CHECKDB). This error can be caused by many factors; for more information, see SQL Server Books Online.

    Do you encounter similar errors when backing up using regular SQL Server backup commands?

  • Yes, I tried this now, and there was a problem with regular backup, so the problem is not red-gate related, sorry to have bothered you guys.
