WD My Cloud 4GB And Windows 2012 Server Backup

My Cloud OS 3 Personal & Network Attached Storage My Cloud
1

Hello,

Did anyone tried to make a windows backup from Windows 2012 Server on the WD My Cloud 4GB?

I have a weird situation here, all my backups fail with error “incorrect function” my drive has v03.04.01-230 firmware and i tried every available combination with user related authentication.

Windows server is fully update and are ok with other NAS and Local USB.

  

The error from the windows backup utility :

The backup operation that started at ‘‎2014‎-‎05‎-‎28T16:19:45.046622100Z’ has failed with following error code ‘0x807800C5’ (There was a failure in preparing the backup image of one of the volumes in the backup set.). Please review the event details for a solution, and then rerun the backup operation once the issue is resolved.

Are you trying to create a backup or a system image?

The instructions on how to create a backup on Windows are on the following link:

Hi,

I have the same problem with a 3TB MyCloud.

Did you find a solution meanwhile ?

Same Problem.

Server 2012 full patched.

WD my Cloud 2TB.

firmware:v04.00.00-607 (same problem with previously version)

Using WBAdmin via BatchFile to Backup the Server to a WD’ Share.

The same backup task works perfectly to other NAS or network share.

Regards.

I have the same error.  WD please fix.

The solution for this problem (at least for Windows Server 2012) is to create an iScsi device on the My Cloud. Then use the iScsi application on Windows Server to connect to the iScsi share on the Mt Cloud. Then use Server disk manager to initiate and create a drive from the iScsi connection. I did this and it seemed to work fine. Here is the article:
