[RESOLVED] Win2008R2 SP1: STOP 0x7E in volsnap!VspQueryNtfsFreeSpaceBitmap+2fb

  • Article

Status: Resolved.

Update 110608: The problem is caused by the fact that the volume is larger than 64TB, which is not supported in the current design of volsnap. This is documented in KB950241.

As mentioned in a previous post, I've received a STOP 0x7E dump with the following stack on Win2008R2 SP1 (a similar stack is seen on Win2008SP2):

VolSnap version installed is from KB2460912:

I have asked one of our Developers to take a look at this. Updates will follow shortly.

    Hi Rob, Any update on the: STOP 0x7E FAILURE_BUCKET_ID:  X64_0x7E_volsnap!VspQueryNtfsFreeSpaceBitmap+2fb Problem. I have the issue on a Windows Storage Server 2008 R2 SP1 cluster protected (or not as the case is) by System Center DPM 2012. Any news would be gratefully received. I am running: 0: kd> lmtm volsnap start             end                 module name fffff88001d37000 fffff88001d83000   volsnap   Sat Dec 18 06:06:16 2010 (4D0C4F58)

    Update: After some further investigation it seems like it crashes only when the backed up volumes are on teh same cluster node as another 80TB volume. Even though this 80TB volume isn't being backed up it's presence on the same node makes tee system crash. Any ideas?
