Post by IgorStepanenko_URGuU »

Hello.

     Is it possible to set the waiting time for preparing a shadow copy for more than 30 minutes in the virtual computer based on vShere?

Sincerely.

Hi,

i think you are referring to this article right ? VSS wait timeout

Did you already try to use more than 30 Minutes ?

I read this article. I set the timeout of 14400000 ms - 4 hours. But in the backup report the timeout is 1800 seconds, i.e. 30 minutes.

Ok,

so this proves that, the hard limit is at 30 minutes.
May i ask, why you need such a long amount of time ?

VSS does not have time to prepare the backup. The server is running SQL Server.

Have you restarted the Veeam Backup Service after changing the registry value?

Then I suggest asking assistance from our support engineers, since there might be some other timeout values to check.
