Quick Fix: SBS 2011 wbadmin parameter incorrect

I never thought i’d be writing about SBS 2011 again, but here she is, back from the dead.

I’m working on a migration SBS 2011 > 2019 and as per my guide i was trying to get a system state backup of the source server before making any changes. Well, the SBS had other ideas.

Running the command

wbadmin start systemstate backup -backuptarget:g:

Would result in an error ‘parameter incorrect’ after a few minutes.

Introducing Windows Server 2019 Essentials

With the release of Server 2019 Essentials, the end of an era has been reached. Gone are the wizards and tools designed for the small business owner.

Gone is the Remote Web Access feature.

Gone is the Essentials Connector.

Gone is Client PC Backup.

Gone is Office 365 Integration.

Gone, is the Dashboard.

Gone, indeed, is the Essentials Role.

All that remains of Essentials, is the name Essentials and the licensing limits of the Essentials SKU, of 25 client access licenses.

What we are presented with, is now more in line with Windows foundation server from several years ago.
