Hello All,
In the maintenance plans for backups, if I select "Verify backup integrity" options, maintenance plans fails with the following error message: "Cannot open backup device........Operating system error 2(The system cannot find the file specified.). VERIFY DATABASE is terminating abnormally"
Details on AG setup: Its 4 (2HA+2DR) instances, as I am running backups on secondary replica, though I have maintenance plans on all 4 replicas, but when we select "copy-only' options in maitenance plans, backups are taken only on preffered replica, on other replica's backup maintenance plans are executing fine but without any backup files. So as backup files doesnt exist on other non-preffered replicas(for backups), verify database task is failing, does anyone encounter similar problem? Any workaround to tackle this is appricated. Thanks!
