    pre/post tasks

    Do you have client agents installed on your servers? The pre/post within the JOB on your backup server ONLY runs on the backup server. EVERY client agent has to be configured for its own pre/post jobs/commands. Hope that helps.

    Brightstor Arcserve 9 - What client agents?

    I recommend both the OS agent and the BAOF agent on that machine. The OS Client agent will provide better use of your network resources, as it is a push agent. The Backup Agent for Open Files SHOULD remedy the message you are getting, which indicates that a user or application (potentially your...

    BrightStor V9 Multi-NIC cards configuration with Exchange Agent

    If you are trying to backup the exchange database files, while exchange is still running, without using an exchange agent, the backup is worthless. This is because the files are in use, and will be out of syncronization. Hope that makes a bit more sense.

    AS2K Service Pack 5

    Please also keep in mind that CA is dropping support for Arcserve 2000 at the end of March, because version 9 has been out over a year now, and Arcserve 11 is due out in the next month or two. More information here: http://support.ca.com/techbases/asnt/bab_drop.html

    Rename tape?

    You're gonna neeed to use a physical label to do it. There is no way to rename the tape, without formatting it.

    BrightStor V9 Multi-NIC cards configuration with Exchange Agent

    The CLIENT AGENT technology in BAB 9.x allows you to select on the CLIENT system which IP address to use for communications with the backup server. For the person that started this thread, regarding exchange, you're doing COLD backups right? If you are trying to backup the stores (at their FILE...

    Shares private to all but owner.

    Windows does not have that capability. Novell Netware does. The best you can do is to share out the directory and give the users CHANGE access to the share, and CHANGE access at the NTFS level. Remember that by putting a $ at the end of the share name, it will be "hidden". i.e...

    Please mount any media

    How many slots in your changer, how many tapes in the changer, and how many of them are BLANK?

    SQL backup strategy

    Most customers will put a filter inplace to filter out \mssql\data. You MAY also want to schedule a WEEKLY or MONTHLY cold backup of the entire server, controlling all of the application/DB related services via a pre/post jobs, assuming you are allowed weekly/monthly downtime.

    Win 2000 or Win 2000 Advanced Server

    Assuming you are licensed for 2KAS, go for it. It doesn't run any slower than 2K standard, just adds support for more memory, more processors, and clustering support.

    IIS security

    From a default install, IIS 6.0 is configured in complete lockdown mode, meaning it will ONLY serve static HTML content, every thing else needs to be enabled. Visit these sites for more info: -...

    How to launch a batch file that starts a program on another computer

    Visit sysinternals.com and download the PSTOOLS suite. In that suite is a tool that allows you to execute commands remotely.

    media duplication

    The only method via the GUI (in v9) is to make use of the RAID option, and create a mirrored set of tapes when doing your backups. There is no GUI to the tapecopy command as of yet.

    2000 Server or Server 2003?

    2003 Server is 15-25% FASTER than 2000 server for file and print services, on identical hardware. Don't put your money in old versions of products, ever. :)

    Arcserve v9 and administrative rights

    CA does not support use of the product without Admin rights to the box. I've tried some workarounds, and none of them helped.

    One Tape, 3 sessions, Can't restore 3rd session

    Arcserve 6.0 was never certified to work with any service pack above SP3. Support for Arcserve 6.0 was dropped by CA in June 2001. The current version of Arcserve is 9.0. Arcserve 11.0 is the next major release scheduled for the end of this year / beginning of next year. I strongly encourage...

    Brightstor Installation Question

    There is no officially supported method to move the DB location. You'll need to uninstall and resinstall. Only other choice would be to install SQL on the box, and then convert the Arcserve DB to SQL. But thats a pretty costly endeavor.
