Windows 2012 R2 File Corrupt - Repair Volume Reports No Errors?!?

April 23, 2015, 1:44 am

Hi

I have a Windows 2012 R2 server with a volume connected to a HP SAN via iSCSI.

A single file on that volume is corrupt, attempting its deletion results in the following message:

An unexpected error is keeping you from deleting the file. If you continue to receive the error, you can use the error code to search for help with this problem. Error 0x80070570: The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable.

To fix this I ran the following powershell command: repair-volume -driveletter T -scan

However this returned: NoErrorsFound

I also ran a third party application to do an online surface scan and no bad sectors were found.

How then do I delete this file?!?

Thanks

Andrew

NFS Server: Use 32bit cookies / fileids in Windows 2012R2?

Is it possible to disable 64 bit cookies or enable 32 bit cookies within a Windows 2012 R2 NFS Server?

We are performing a migration, and the current NFS client (solaris 10) is passing back the 64bit fileid / cookie to the application.  Unfortunately the application is 32bit and it promptly fails to see the file.  Upgrading the application isn't an option at this time (as it works on the old linux NFS we are migrating from), so was looking for alternative.

Another alternative is NFS V2, but would rather see what else we could do.

Thanks in Advance

0x80070570: The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable.

This is on Server 2012 R2
I have a file that it is stored on a storage pool, space is parity and I'm getting the following error when trying to move/copy/open it:
0x80070570: The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable.
I have run full scan on boot, Repair-Volume cmdlet, SFC.
Nothing can see this file as corrupt except when I try to access it.
How can I repair this file? Isn't parity supposed to prevent this?
The corrupts bits should be able to be repaired if the OS would just recognize it.

Hello,

I have an issue on a brand new and fresh installed Win 2012 R2 Standard (all updates applied). I get this error when trying to enable shadow copies on one big volume (65 TB spanned volume):

Volume Shadow Copy Service error: Unexpected error DeviceIoControl(\\?\Volume{ec8c116f-e1ef-11e4-80c1-44a842035958} - 00000000000001AC,0x0053c008,000000BE7E2E96A0,0,000000BE7E2EA6B0,4096,[0]).  hr = 0x80070057, The parameter is incorrect.
. 

Operation:
   Processing EndPrepareSnapshots

Context:
   Execution Context: System Provider

Chkdsk shows no error. VSS writers are all ok, providers seem ok to me:

I noticed this error when I found Data deduplication was not saving anything. 

Any help will be appreciated.

attach vhd access denied - but works in computer management

I'm running windows server 2008 r2 sp1. When I attach a VHD as read only via Computer Management. It works fine.

However when I do it via disk part, example:

select vdisk "vdisk location"
attach vdisk readonly

I get an access denied error.

Whats the difference between attaching it via computer management and attaching it via diskpart?

I'm trying to automate the process of attaching VHDs, hence why I was trying disk part. Would there be an alternative way?

I found some threads on here about Windows Search not working on DeDup volumes? Most of the threads are pre-R2 timeframe so I am checking in to see if there is any updated info on if this was fixed in R2? It seems this is a critical feature if you are using a volume for redirected libraries?

Ricoh Aficio MP C2051 Scan to Folder - Windows Server 2012 Error: Authentication with the destination has failed check settings

October 31, 2012, 1:02 pm

I have recently upgraded a clients servers to Windows Server 2012 & since doing so have lost the ability to scan to folder.

Both servers are domain controllers and previously on a 2008 domain controller I would have had to make the following change to allow scan to folder:
 Administrative Tools
 Server Manager
 Features
 Group Policy Manager
 Forest: ...
 Default Domain Policy
Computer configuration
 Policies
 Windows Settings
 Security Settings
 Local Policies
 Security Options
 Microsoft Network Server: Digitally Sign Communications (Always)
 - Define This Policy
 - Disabled

However I have applied this to the Windows 2012 server but am still unable to scan, possibly due to added layers of security in server 2012. The error on the scanner is Authentication with the destination has failed check settings.
I have also tried the following at the server:
Policies -> Security Policies
Change Network Security: LAN Manager authentication level to: Send LM & NTLM - Use NTLMv2 session security if negotiated.
Network security: Minimum session security for NTLM SSP based (including secure RPC) clients and uncheck the require 128 bit.
Network security: Minimum session security for NTLM SSP based (including secure RPC) servers and uncheck the require 128 bit
I have created a user account on the server for the ricoh and set this in the settiings of the Ricoh and verified everything is correct.

Are there any other things I have missed?

Hi everyone.  I've read a lot of posts about Error 5 but all the recommendations haven't worked.  When I run the initial robocopy it works fine, however when I run the same script again the next time, it fails with Error 5 access denied.  I did notice that the use I am using shows permissions in the parent folder as Special Permissions to This Folder Only.  Anyone have any ideas?  I'm using version 6.1.7601 that was downloaded from this site: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2639043 and the command line: robocopy SOURCE TARGET /MIR /copy:DATSO /B /FFT /R:1 /W:1 /LOG:c:\robocopy\log1.txt

Windows Server NTFS Permissions Issues

Hello,

I recently created an AD new user account that is a member of the Domain Admins and Enterprise Admins groups.  I'm having issues when accessing folder shares on our servers when logged onto servers using this new account.  The folders have the local Administrators group NTFS rights set to Full Control, but when I attempt to open a folder I receive this message: "You don't currently have permissions to access this folder.  Click Continue to permanently get access to this folder." 

Share permissions are set for Everyone Full Control.

I have recently discovered that the issue occurs on servers without folder shares too.

Work Folders - Not Functioning Correctly - Sync Stopped. Blocked by security policies

Currently trying to deploy Work Folders so that when a user logs in, all of his/her settings are pointing to the local Work Folders which are then synchronized with the Work Folders server.  I have found the follow post regarding someone experiencing a similar issue to mine however it doesn't appear to be the exact same issue as the poster's fix doesn't fix my issue.  (See: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/bf6b77de-349c-454e-8746-f26e76c8f3a3/work-folders-not-working-on-second-computer?forum=winserver8gen)

I am seeing the following error - in the Work Folders section under control panel - on my account that I've configured to use WORK FOLDERS:

Note: The "manage credentials" link on the left-hand side when clicked displays the following:

Any thoughts?

PCIe SSD + Storage Spaces = HUGE read performance drop?

April 24, 2015, 9:41 pm

So I'm seeing some strange, slow behavior with a simple Storage Spaces pool with only a pair of mirrored drives.  I've seen lots of folks having problems with SS, but most are issues with parity spaces.

I've got a new Dell R730xd with 4 of their 400GB nvme ExpresFlash SSDs.  The machine also has a PERC card with a bunch of 15K rpm SAS drives and will be used for SQL Server. (and a pair of E5-2643v3 xeons and 256GB ram)

This is running Windows Server 2012R2 with all the latest patches.  I've used both Storage Spaces / pools and traditional windows disk management to create a mirrored pair of these drives.  I also tested a single drive by itself.  The SS volume actually showed huge promise for a moment where it was obviously reading simultaneously from both drives.  These are some of the fastest SSDs available now, so these results for just using a pair of them are pretty awesome.  Using the old-school windows disk mirroring does show a performance penalty vs. a bare drive, but it's not drastic, so it's probably what I'll be forced to use unless I can fix the problem.

*note I later rebuilt this pool using a 4k physical & logical sector size hoping that was the culprit, but it didn't help.  It sorta looks like I'm running into some PCIe bus contention, possibly overloading the backplane. *shrug*

You can see the PS syntax used to create this here:

Cannot add disk space

We have a virtual machine server that has a C: (OS), D: (data) partitions. I added unallocated space to the server as the C: (OS) partition is low on disk space. It will not let me add more disk space to the server using disk management.

The C: and D: partitions are setup as a simple volume on one hard drive. How can I add additional disk space to the server to avoid it potentially crashing.

Cannot delete network folders - thumbs.db "The action can't be completed because the file is open in Windows Explorer"

February 7, 2015, 4:24 pm

I have applied the GPO user setting "Turn off the caching of thumbnails in hidden thumbs.db files" to every device on my network. It has been applied for weeks.

When I attempt to delete a folder on another server, that I have full access to and could otherwise delete with no issue, probably 50% of the time I will receive the "The action can't be completed because the file is open in Windows Explorer" message for the thumbds.db.

Every thread (of the hundreds about this clear 100% bug) says to enable the policy I have to fix this. I have, I've confirmed via gpresult /h and checked the registry key it creates under the user profile. I have no idea how a user policy is meant to stop what I think is the server creating or locking these files, or how with the GPO applied anything should be accessing the thumbs.db.

I am unsure what steps I can take now to ensure 100% of the time I can delete a network folder. This is such a simple thing I want to do and is stressing me to no end not being able to fix such a simple thing.

See below. This is from a server where I am trying to delete a folder located on another server. Notice the registry setting is set where it shouldn't be generating (and therefore I assume in anyway locking or accessing) the thumbs.db. I have confirmed and every other client that might touch this folder definitely has this same registry key set.

Hi, I am planning on setting up DFSR on a lot of branch sites. the plan is to replciate them to the main server in the data centre and backup this serve every night. The data we plan to migrate on the branch servers are home drives etc. What are best practices for doing this? Would I use a read only option on this as I wouldn't want someone to change the data in the data centre and then this replicate back down to the branch server!

Thanks

Accessing shared folder created on 2003 server asking for credentials on windows 2008 R2 server

Hello All,

I am very confused with one of the issue I am dealing with and now I am running out with the ideas so now I need your help to troubleshoot that issue.

Issue is that I have a single forest but two domains. Both domains have two way trusts etc. I have shared some folders in domain A on windows 2003 server which is perfectly fine on accessing on windows 2003 server on domain B and not asking any credentials but same folders I am trying to access is asking for credentials on windows 2008 r2 server.

Interesting thing is when I have shared a folder on windows 2008 r2 server its accessing fine on both domains vise versa and on even accessing fine in windows 2003 servers with no credentials requirement.

So I know for fact that trust relationship of domains and all that are fine.

What confusing me is that why shared folder on Domain A windows 2003 Server is asking for credentials on Domain B windows 2008 r2 server?

Please can anyone help on this matter as this is very important and one of the P2 at this moment due to this issue.

Many Thanks

Ali

Dear All, 

I am experiencing crisis in the infrastructure 

I had virus infection and I had recovered from it "not completely" - the problem is folders keeps moving to hidden System volume folder

I tried working with security essential and it found that I have myfiles.exe infection 

I blocked all executable files from the system - re installed new OS 

I still get this problem that folders moved to system volume folder 

from event viewer - after blocking exe files 

user UUUUUUU  attempted to save D:\xxx.exe on D:\ on server SSSSS  This file matches the "Executable Files" file group which is not permitted on the system.

the xxx.exe name is the name of folder which then moved to system volume folder trying to put exe file on its place 

please advice for urgent remediation

Hi, 

Server 2008 with a number of shadow copy points. I wish to move to location that the shadow copies are saved.

Currently it is on the same drive as the as the data it is "protecting".

Can this be done without losing the current ones?

Cheers,
