The issue is that I cannot get a Maintenance Plan to do a transaction log backup on one of the SQL instances, but it works fine on the other two. If I execute the SQL Agent job, or the Maintenance Plan itself, it never completes, there are no errors displayed and no backup file is created. However, I can copy and paste the SQL created by the View T-SQL button into SSMS and it executes fine, creating the log backups
We are running SQL Server 2012 Enterprise 11.0.5058 x64 running on Windows Server 2012 R2, 3 named SQL instances in a 2-node cluster.
There are no errors logged in either the SQL error logs or Windows Event logs. The databases are all set to Full recovery model. I have deleted and recreated the Maintenance plan several time to no effect. We only recently moved to the new hardware and the logs were being backed up fine on the old cluster.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions you may have.
