    Get the following error with windows 2003 backup when using ASR
    ---------------------------
    Backup Utility
    ---------------------------
    The files for the recovery diskette could not be created. The operation was
    aborted.
    ---------------------------
    OK
    ---------------------------

    * I have tried several floppies, they are all good as is the floppy drive
    * I have tried article
    http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;316456
    * I have double checked to make sure the logical disk manager service is
    running

    This failure and the ones for other similiar posts appear to have happened
    since may.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks

    I have noticed that this behavior for Windows 2003 has started since May on
    several usenet posts. My configuration is a 2 node failover sql cluster
    with a shared quorum. This behaviour happens only on one node. I am using
    the other node (the one that backup works to backup the one node and the
    quorum). Fortunately this is not a production system. However my my
    confidence in the windows 2003 backup utility is somewhat shaken. Since
    this is a test system and the system drive is not raided I can use deploy
    center to backup the system drive but since the quorum is scsi I was hoping
    that the 2003 ntbackup would be sufficient for that drive.
