Now you’re less likely to miss what’s been brewing in our knowledge base with this weekly digest
"An operation on a socket could not be performed because the system lacked sufficient buffer space or because a queue was full"
Repairing or removing unsuccessful iSCSI connections, followed by the server reboot, was found to fix the issue. Additionally, remove any unused targets from the ‘Favorite Targets’ tab that are associated with these connections as they may be reconnected after reboot.
This issue has been addressed by Microsoft. Apply the appropriate update below to resolve the issue

The update that resolved the above Buffer Space iSCSI issue (KB4025335) has caused another iSCSI issue that only affects Backup from Storage Snapshots using an iSCSI connection.
After installing Windows Update KB4025335, KB4034681, KB4025333, or KB4025336, Veeam jobs utilizing Backup from Storage Snapshots using an iSCSI connection fail with the following errors:
“Error: Cannot retrieve physical extents for connecting iSCSI target IQN iqn.2007-11.com.nimblestorage:lun-nim-oracle-veeam-lun-nim-oracle-v069a713ff86811d1.000000d1.fef260ee.s069a713ff86811d1.000000de.0000b1cb on proxy IQN iqn.1991-05.com.microsoft:mtl-s-fs0005.solotech.local”
In the logs, it can be seen with this error:
