Configuring BARS on CCM4

[askb]

I am trying to setup BARS to backup to a shared network drive. When I add the drive into the storgae location it authentictaes with no problem and starts working but then I recieve the following message.


[08:39:19 AM] Could not build archive successfully.

I can do a local backup with no problems but this is obviously not what i want to do

Anybody got any suggestions?

check the permissions on the shared drive/folder?

When you set up the storage location in BARS are you specifying a username and password that has permission to access the folder?

 

[askb]

Yes it has permission on the directory it is copying it to. The problem is that the ccm is not on our domain and sits on a seperate workgroup. Can I still back this up to a network directory if it is not on the domain?

 

[AdmanOK]

Yes, this is how I have mine set up. My CallManager is in a workground and backs up to a file server that is a member of the domain. In the BARS web interface I have a storage location specified with a username entered in the format of "DOMAIN\Username" I haven't had any problems with this setup.

make sure you set the directory persmissions to "everyone full control" on the backup target.
