Tobie. Thanks for the link.
I tried that, but no matter where I run chkdsk from, it always runs
against the C drive, which is the only drive letter assigned on this
system.
I CD'd as far into the Junctions as possible, but when I run chkdsk, the
info it returns is the same info I get if I run chkdsk c:.
Here it the path I went to.
C:\Program Files\Microsoft
DPM\Volumes\DiffArea\exchange.vhcc.edu\Microsoft Exchange Writer\First
Storage Group
Can't go any deeper.
>From the directory Microsoft Exchange Writer, dir lists
First Storage Group {\??\Volume\{87e268c-... which matches the volume
name listed in the DPM error, so I think I'm in the correct location.
Any other suggestions appreciated.
Glen.

It's how to get into the mountpoint and run a checkdisk.

Running DPM 2007 here backing up to a Drobo PRO iscsi box.
So far it has worked well.
Last weekend we had a power outage and things didn't shutdown properly.
I've got a DC and Exchange backups that wont run now.
I get VSS error on the DPM server that says to clear the VSS error and
run chkdsk.
When I try to clear the VSS error or re-run the job, I get the same
error.
Chkdsk /x \\?\Volume{89e268c7-......}
<file:///\\%3f\Volume%7b89e268c7-......%7d>
Gives error, cannot open volume for direct access. Does this mean my
syntax for the volume name is incorrect or what?
Chkdsk /x is supposed to dismount the volume and run, but it doesn't.
I've stopped all DPM services and still can't get chkdsk to run.
Also, disk management MMC, find volume in the sea of volumes, tools,
chkdsk doesn't do anything.
Any suggestions?
