I am currentley backing up several Virtual machines to a CIFS hosted data store with VDR. The data store is 500 GB in size and only about half full. ALl of the backup jobs run fine except for one. It fails with one of two error messages.

Task terminated at specified stop time

Trouble writing to destenation volume, error -105 (unexpected end of data)

I am running VDR 1.2

Hi,

I am not sure if the error codes mean anything but I would try the steps below to resolve the issue

1. Manually create a new snapshot and Delete all snapshots for the VM

2. Ensure that there are no damaged Restore Points for the VM, if yes follow KB to delete them http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1013387

3. Check the Guest O.S logs i.e. event id for any errors

Let me know if the above steps work, if not we will check further Smiley Happy

I hope this information helps !
