Hi all,
I've setup 3 SQL Agent jobs to run my backups: Full, Differential and Log.
I'm using the scripts provided by: https://ola.hallengren.com/
I using basic configuration of these scripts and all backup directories are pointed to the same folder (@Directory) on the local drive (i know). I went to check them today and I find my differential and log back up files are where they should be but my full backups are nowhere to be found.
I checked the SQL Agent job history and the back up history - logs suggest my full backups are firing per the configured schedule. However, the device name for my full backups is a GUID and the device type is 7 (virtual device).
I believe there's volume backup service that runs on the machine - can this be the cause? If so, why?
Thanks for reading,
Clay
