Problem with bakup recovery. Server 2012 r2 RRS feed

  • Question

  • Hey,
    I have set Bare Metal backup on a dedicated disk.
    Windows backup shows that the copies from the following days were successful. However, when I try to restore - I can only restore the last copy. I am asking for help because ransomware attacked me.

  • Restore options are depend on the settings of backup schedule.

  • I know that and full backup is set. The log shows that x copies were successfully made, but only one (last) can be recovered. Does this mean that the backup has overwritten previous versions? Or will they be available when recovering from the installation media?

  • Hi,

    >>I have set Bare Metal backup on a dedicated disk.

    Is this dedicated disk a external drive or a network share disk? Starting with Server 2008, the utility only allows you to keep one backup on remote shared folder, which means windows server backup incremental to network share is no longer available. 

    If your dedicated disk is a external media, you should run "vssadmin list shadows" to see if there is any other shadow copies in your server.

    Hope this can help.

    Best Regards,
