Problem
Restore of Exchange server fails with error code
Error
0xe000fed1 - A failure occurred querying the Writer status.
Writer Name: Exchange Server, Writer ID: {76FE1AC4-15F7-4BCD-987E-8E1ACB462FB7}, Last error: 0x800423f3, State: 0014.
V-79-57344-65233 - A failure occurred querying the Writer status.
Following Event can be seen on the Exchange server :
Event Type: Error
Event Source: MSExchangeIS
Event Category: Exchange VSS Writer
Event ID: 9751
Date:
Time:
User: N/A
Computer: EXCH
Description:
Exchange VSS Writer failed restoring a backup because a prohibited attempt was made to add additional restores to a previous restored backup set where database recovery was already performed (perhaps unsuccessfully). The restored backup set is described in the existing restore environment document 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\Mailbox\First Storage Group\E00restore.env'.
Additional restores to this storage group or location will continue to fail until the remnants from the previous restored backup set have been manually cleaned up.
Cause
If the remnants from the previous restored backup set are left behind it would cause Exchange writer query failure.
Solution
( Note : Only remove or rename the files restored by previous restore job, like restore.env file. Renaming or removing any other file may cause data loss )
Run the restore job. Restore should now be successful.
