Event ID 528 — Backup Operations

Applies To: Windows Server 2008

You can use the Windows Server Backup snap-in or the wbadmin command to create and manage backups to protect your operating system, volumes, files, and application data. Backups can be saved to single or multiple disks, DVDs, removable media, or remote shared folders. They can also be scheduled to run automatically or manually.

However, system state backup is only available for the command line and is not available in the Windows Server Backup snap-in user interface. Also, you cannot configure a scheduled backup to create system state backups—but you can script the wbadmin start systemstatebackup command to run backups on a schedule.

In addition, you can use the Local Group Policy Editor snap-in (Gpedit.msc) to allow or disallow certain types of backups or backup locations. Policy settings for Windows Server Backup are located at: Local Computer Policy\Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Backup\Server.

Resolve

Update settings for scheduled backups or Group Policy

For a scheduled backup to run without errors, the settings for the scheduled backup cannot conflict with Group Policy settings for backups. If you encounter this problem, review the policy settings and your scheduled backup settings, and adjust either one as needed.

To create a scheduled backup or work with Group Policy settings for Windows Server Backup, you must have membership in Administrators, or you must have been delegated the appropriate authority.

Configure Group Policy settings

To configure Group Policy settings for Windows Server Backup:

  1. Open Group Policy Editor. Click Start, click Run, and then type gpedit.msc.
  2. Navigate to Local Computer Policy\Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Backup\Server.
  3. In the right pane, double-click each policy, click the Setting tab, and then update as needed.

Create a scheduled backup

Make sure that at least one of the backup storage disks is online.

To configure a scheduled backup:

  1. Open an elevated Command Prompt window. Click Start, point to All Programs, click Accessories, right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as administrator.

  2. At the prompt, type: wbadmin enable backup. Use parameters, as needed. (To view the parameters and help for this command, at a command line, type: wbadmin start backup /?).

    For example, to create a backup that will:

    • Schedule backups of hard disk drives e:, d:\mountpoint, and \\?\Volume{cc566d14-44a0-11d9-9d93-806e6f6e6963}\
    • Save the files to the disk DiskID
    • Run the backups daily at 9:00 A.M. and 6:00 P.M.

    Type: wbadmin enable backup -addtarget:<DiskID> -schedule:09:00,18:00 -include:e:,d:\mountpoint,\\?\Volume{cc566d14-44a0-11d9-9d93-806e6f6e6963}\.

Note: Reconfiguring a scheduled backup will reformat the backup storage disk and any old backups will be lost.

Verify

To verify that backup operations are running, or will run, successfully, you should do one or more of the following, as needed:

  • For any backup operations that you have run, look for Event ID 4, which indicates that the operation completed successfully with no errors.
  • Verify that no other backup or recovery operations are running so that you can start an operation.
  • Verify that you have enabled a scheduled backup, and is configured correctly.
  • Verify that the location where you plan to store your backups is available and online.

To perform these procedures, you must have membership in Backup Operators or Administrators, or you must have been delegated the appropriate authority.
