WMI Error during Job setup

Post by TheJourney » 1 person likes this post

"WMI method call failed"

Veeam endpoint on a Windows 2008 R2 server.

Error occurs after selecting drive then clicking Next, under volume level backup. Have rebuilt WMI several times. Any suggestions on what to try?

Code: Select all

You should go ahead and open a support case with Veeam through the control panel from the icon in the system tray. Once you have submitted the case post the case number here to be tracked.

Cheers!

I opened a case for the piece of equipment mentioned above by TheJourney.

the case number is 00943583.

Any ideas about what is going on would be appreciated. I had to open the case from a different machine than the one with the problem. It has no internet access.

After the case was opened I sent all the logs to the case ID as an email attachment.

Dear Customer,
Thank you for contacting Veeam Customer Support. Your support case number is 00943583. We will be in touch with you soon.

Tom,

Just to get it straight. You opened a case from your computer, and then emailed the logs from Sams PC to the support case? Is that correct?

Let me know so I can talk to the support team to see if everything is well received

Thanks

Mike

The computer with the problem is the one I emailed the logs from. Sam was referring to the same computer. It's name is ntcamsys03. It does not have internet access so I opened the case from my own computer and after it was opened I emailed the logs from ntcamsys03. Thanks for the help. Tom
