This error occurs when the backup device wasn't removed from the devices context following the media server deletion/migration to other cell.

In other words, the media server could have moved to another cell server or might have been decommissioned and by mistake the devices were not removed from the devices list.

Check the media server's existence, if available;
Check the cell server name, it is pointing to;

Mostly, if the orphan device entry is removed, this error will disappear.

[61:2051] All mountpoints on host \"winsrv01.in.com\" are excluded.

Error:

[Major] From: BSM@cellsrv01.in.com \"win2008bck_spec1\"  Time: 06/09/14 19:09:47
[61:2051] All mountpoints on host \"winsrv01.in.com\" are excluded.
Nothing will be backed up.

Reason:

>> This is something related to Inet error (which was discussed Here), but not necessarily be due to network disruptions. This could also be due to platform side issue.

Analysis:

>> Try to ping and telnet the windows server using default port number from cell server or any other server on the same network.

>> In this case, the server was pretty slow and non-responsive. Telnet to the default port was hung, so requested wintel team for server optimization which must fix the error.

>> Double-check by expanding the server's objects from the backup specification (which would hung as well).

Have a Great Day :)

TSM Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service


Error:

ANS9999E ntrc.cpp(928): Received Win32 RC 1450 (0x000005aa) from FileRead(): ReadFile '\\xxxx\. Error description: Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service.

Solution:

>> Edit the dsm.opt file by adding the param "MEMORYEFFICIENTBACKUP YES".
>> Save it.
>> Try a manual backup and check if the backup completes.

If not, this error needs attention from platform end.

>> Windows OS has the paging file space memory that needs attention. 
>> Issue can be resolved by adding/modifying "PoolUsageMaximum & PagedPoolSize" in registry

For more info, please refer the article from microsoft.

Your backup should be successful, once this is fixed.

Have a nice Day!!
