According to Microsoft, exception 0xC0000142 (STATUS_DLL_INIT_FAILED) means that initialization of the  dynamic link library failed. It looks like some of dll's linked to e2010_bar are missing or not correctly registered.

1) In Windows 2012 environment .net framework 3.5 is not installed by default,  so please install it manually through ServerManager on all windows 2012 machines and after that try again to configure Exchange  integration. If configuration fails again, proceed with following steps.

Bob,

The tests you wanted me to run have returned the following output:

PS C:\Program Files\OmniBack\bin> e2010_bar.exe -v
HP Data Protector A.08.00: E2010_BAR, internal build 596, built on Monday, May 20, 2013, 4:25 AM

PS C:\Program Files\OmniBack\bin> e2010_bar.exe -chkconf

 Configured User svc-d-dataprotector is not a member of MS Exchange built-in group 'Organization Management'.

(which I find interesting because I have a screen shot from my Exchange guy that says this is NOT the case - the account in question IS in fact in the built-in group 'Organization Management')

PS C:\Program Files\OmniBack\bin> e2010_bar.exe -getexchversion

MS Exchange Server version = v15

Thanks

Ken

Reapplied Visual C 2008 and 2010 redistributables (not sure VC 2010 was ever on the Exch 2013 server)... second command changed:

PS C:\Program Files\OmniBack\bin> e2010_bar -chkconf

MS Exchange 2010 Configuration check success

Now I am able to configure the backup job.

HOWEVER...

DP8 doesn't seem to recognize the DP 7 licenses I had in place.  It tells me there is no cell manager license.

I seem to recall seeing that one out here somewheres... time to start digging!

Ken

OK, THAT was interesting.

Somehow the DP 7-8 upgrade smoked my cell manager license right out of the file.  Re-applied it and started my Exch 2013 backup job...  however... now, I get the "no hardware providers".  Any clues out there?

I found only one reference to this error, it goes back to 6.11, so, I can't swear as to its relevance

Apparently, this is caused by activating Instant Recovery when doing Zero Downtime Backups

I could reproduce the issue in the lab as well. Pls refer the following.
<---
C:\>cd "Program Files\OmniBack\bin"

C:\Program Files\OmniBack\bin>omnidbvss -resolve -apphost XYZ

        There is no hardware provider installed on the system.
        Backup cannot continue.

(I changed the actual hostname to XYZ to protect the innocent)

The command "omnidbvss -resolve -apphost cpewit25.intg.cpe.net" will be used only in case of ZDB.
I am not sure why customer is attempting this if he is not running transportable/ZDB backup.

Pls refer the CLI user guide content.

<---
-resolve {-apphost ApplicationSystem|-all}

Resolves the specified application system (if -apphost is used) or all application
systems (if -all is used) in the Data Protector cell.

The command applies only to instant recovery-enabled backup sessions and must
be run always after:
- installing or upgrading Data Protector
- your source volumes configuration on the application system has changed
    (for example, you have modified the existing source volumes or you have
     presented new source volumes)
- you have added a new storage object (for example, a Microsoft Exchange
Server storage group)

For more information, see the HP Data Protector zero downtime backup integration
guide.
--->

After reading the above text, it is clear that resolve is used only
"to instant recovery-enabled backup sessions"

Hence could you pls let me know the reasoning behind running this command. Also,
confirm the following.

1. Customer wants to backup file system or a application writer
2. Customer has any luns presented or not, if so from EVA/XP.

This was in the context of trying to configure an Exchange 2010 backup, so I don't know how much relates to you.  But, I would check the options in the Backup specification to make sure that you don't have this enabled

Your issue  is the way you defined your backup job

Connecting to Volume Shadow Copy Service.

If you want to use  VSS Transportable Backup.. this is the equivalent of Microsoft to our Exchange Instant Recovery.. so you need to have a Hardware provider in order to create the transportable snapshot

Rededine a new job

At the first screen select instead LOCAL OR NETWORK BACKUP instead of the VSS Transportable backup ( Unless you do have an EVA or an XP DISK ARRAY or any other 3rd party that will provide you with the hardware provider to manage the snapshots / copies )

hope this help you

Well, I'm back to DP thinking my service account isn't part of the built-in 'Organization Management'.  HAve to have my Exchange guru check that on Monday - but I don't think anything has removed it.

This works in our production environment.

But HP - come on, folks, get your documentation complete.  Please list the pre-reqs for using DP 8 with Exch 2013:

     - .NET 3.5

     - Visual C 2010 redistributable

(thanks, Bob Clark, for those two)

I actually found a lab case where this dependency was reported, and the documentation was supposed to have been updated.  I wanted to look at the integration Guide to see if it made it in, but, that site is down right now (go figure).  I'll try again tomorrow

The same problem of the DP user reported as not belonging to "organization management" group where it is instead.

Running DP 9.01

Any idea ?

thanks
