Unable to install Windows Server Backup


Recommended Posts

Hi guys and girls,

 

I have inherited a server 2012r2 host with a 2012r2 DC. I am trying to install the Windows Server Backup role using the add roles and features wizard, but keep getting errors (see attached capture).

 

When looking through the server manager dashboard I found the following 3 errors which I think are linked.

 

Faulting application name: tasklist.exe, version: 6.3.9600.17415, time stamp: 0x545042cc

I have also tried installing Windows Server Backup using powershell but receive the following error:

 

Add-WindowsFeature Windows-Server-Backup

Add-WindowsFeature : Server execution failed
At line:1 char:1
+ Add-WindowsFeature Windows-Server-Backup
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : DeviceError: (Microsoft.Manag...rDetailsHandle):CimException) [Install-WindowsFeature],
   Exception
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : UnSupportedTargetDevice,Microsoft.Windows.ServerManager.Commands.AddWindowsFeatureComman
   d

I'm not really sure where to start looking to solve this, would anyone be able to help??

 

Many thanks

Apologies for the late reply. Seems the previous company in charge of this server didn't believe in updating servers. After installing a butt load of updates I was finally able to install windows server backup. Thanks for your help :)

    • I think it's bloody great, old chap!
    • Not the deal that 2nd hand purchasers tend to look for - no.  It's cheaper than the sum of it's parts new - yes.  But people looking for 2nd hand, pre-built computers are rarely looking for what you are selling. Don't misunderstand; as an informed enthusiast I like that computer, and as an informed enthusiast I am often asked "My son wants a gaming PC and here's my budget" - in which case, as an informed enthusiast I would totally point them in this sort of direction.  But I am not the mass market, hence you may well have to wait longer for a sale. If you're looking for speed - then breaking it into parts is likely to pay off better on that front, as there will be more people who suit that market and their likelihood of buying 2nd hand is more fruitful.  But - chore!
    • What is the purpose of this article? You didn't even mention that CPU is powering it, so we don't know what GPU/iGPU it has. We don't know if the memory is on chip, on the motherboard, is expandable or replaceable. And that's only the internals. Display type, resolution, brightest you didn't even mention the DPI. Without one or more if these capabilities no one who reads these strung together words will know if they should or shouldn't buy it. The only HINT is from the sticker on the photo of the laptop. Q: what do you get for wasting people's time? Their must be some value or you wouldn't have wasted your time either.
    • That is some storage. I have an old F4-210 and it works well for what it is, just a shame Terramaster will not update the software for it.
