Windows Server 2003 Failover cluster Backup failure

Window Server 2003 Failover cluster 환경의 서버에서 ASR 백업이 실패 한 사례입니다. 단일 노드 Windows server 2003 Cluster 환경에서는 bakcup이 되지 않는 다고 하네요..-___-;

[현 상]

When you run the Automated System Recovery (ASR) Wizard in the Windows Backup program, the backup may be unsuccessful and you may notice the following error logged in the backup progress:

Error: Could not access portions of directory System State\Cluster Quorum.
You may not have permission to open the file, or the directory may be missing or damaged.
Please contact the owner or administrator

[원 인]

This issue can occur if you try to back up the Local Quorum resource in a single-node Windows Server 2003 cluster.
The Windows Server 2003 Backup utility does not currently support the backing up of the Local Quorum cluster.

Windows Backup cannot back up and restore the cluster database (ClusDB) because there is no quorum log.
By default, local quorum clusters do not have quorums because the ClusDB does not need to be synchronized between multiple cluster nodes. Because they do not have a quorum, there is no quorum log and Windows Backup cannot back up or restore the ClusDB.
