Hi,
Our system on a daily basis creates a backup of Sql Server 2008 database. It is using "backup database {0} to disk='{1}'" command. It works for years now, but recently a problem occurred.
On our system side the following exception is thrown:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException (0x80131904): Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding.
Could not insert a backup or restore history/detail record in the msdb database. This may indicate a problem with the msdb database. The backup/restore operation was still successful.
Processed 1442744 pages for database 'hist', file 'hist' on file 1.
Processed 4 pages for database 'hist', file 'hist_log' on file 1.
Sql Server log:
Backup,Unknown,BACKUP failed to complete the command BACKUP DATABASE hist. Check the backup application log for detailed messages.
Backup,Unknown,Error: 3041<c/> Severity: 16<c/> State: 1.
Backup,Unknown,Database backed up. Database: hist<c/> creation date(time): 2013/05/20(14:13:10)<c/> pages dumped: 1368896<c/> first LSN: 2054:172392:244<c/> last LSN: 2054:172493:1<c/> number of dump devices: 1<c/> device
information: (FILE=1<c/> TYPE=DISK: {'e:\backup\hist20131129.dmp'}). This is an informational message only. No user action is required
There are no other errors. The same problem occurred twice during last few weeks. DBCC CHECKDB is not returning any errors. Any idea where the problem may be?
Many thanks,
Martin
