BIG-IQ backup failure

ted

If you happen to get an error message like this from a BIG-IQ backup look for an orphaned ucs file in /var/tmp. Once the orphaned ucs file is removed the backup should complete successfully. The message itself is true, that directory does not exist (on my BIG-IPs or BIG-IQ anyway), but seems to have northing to do with the cause of the error.

Error occurred during backup/restore operation on 00.00.00.00: /mgmt/tm/shared/sys/backup not found

I managed to solve this by restarting the restjavad service which is the REST daemon.

Thanks for the heads up @ted . For the message itself, would you mind reporting that into a support ticket if you have a moment? This would help in getting it clarified and accurate in future versions.

@buulam: was there any update on this?

I am investigating an issue with our scheduled backups. I get the same error for one of our load balancers.

So? Someone have news about this error?  task .ucs failed: error occurred during backup/restore operation on : /mgmt/tm/shared/sys/backup not found; please ensure the device is healthy

 

Please contact support, that is what Buu is also pointing at. They can more easily look into it with you safely.
