App Control: Backup Database is Terminating Abnormally

App Control: Backup Database is Terminating Abnormally

Environment

  • App Control Server: All Supported Versions
  • Microsoft SQL Server: All Supported Versions

Symptoms

The 'das' database backup fails due to error:
BACKUP DATABASE is terminating abnormally.

Cause

There can be many reasons that cause this error. Here is the list of some reasons:
  1. Automatic Database Backup feature in the Console is being used on an unsupported edition of SQL Server.
  2. Failed the medium in which the data backup was stored.
  3. A write failure occurs simultaneously while the backup process is running.
  4. A loss of connectivity occurred during the network backup procedure.
  5. There is not enough space on the backup drive.

Resolution

  • The automated database backup feature built into the Console is not designed for deployments of more than 100 endpoints.
  • For deployments of more than 100 endpoints a Maintenance Plan should be created via SQL Server Management Studio.
  • This error is from MS SQL Server. Please engage your database team to troubleshoot the issue.
