    Storage Agents Alerts

    I don't know... it would have to get reaaaaaly hot for a long time to do damage you would think. Our cooling system died once and before we could get the backup unit rolled up there it was around 140 degrees in the room... ambient temp :)!! Most of the servers were still on and things were so...

    Storage Agents Alerts

    Yeah running it to hot will really make the tapes suspect as it might lengthen the tape media which might of been the crc errors. If its a dell server the open manage software will let you know about all the stats of the system. I believe compaq has a limited version of that and i'm sure IBM...

    How to remove a computer from a back up job list

    You can also edit the selection order to put that resource at the top of the list.. that way when your in text view you can delete out the top most items instead of having to go way down the list each time if it wasn't first in line to get backed up. Best way to get a decent backup would be to...

    How to restore just one file?!

    It might be that it wasn't selected then. Doing the restores can get a bit tricky especially if you have complicated backups that do anything other than a complete backup each night. If you can't find it in the backup and you really need the file you might want to try and get ahold of a copy...

    PLEASE INSERT OVERWRITABLE MEDIA ...

    Problem might be that you setup media sets but since that media isn't in the set its complaining about it. I just had an associate do that by accident on a couple of 11D BE setups... it was set to never overwrite the media set he made by default when the system was first run so it wouldn't...

    full back up wont cancel

    For the latest versions of BE there is a recovery feature. Which i complained for ever since version 9.1 Your version should have the Automatic cancellation feature so it will eventually stop the job if it freezes up instead of sitting for days on same job getting nowhere. I use the Priority /...

    Why did my backup fail?

    I believe so. I used to get annoying errors like that all the time while supporting clients that used 8.6 I used to daily go thru the job log and compare with the previous to see what data changed. I found a cheap veritas 9.0 install license on eBay and was able to upgrade the system i was...

    Backup Exec 10d Completed with Exceptions (0xE0008516)

    It might be that veritas is getting into the exchange data when its backing up the system state data or replication information. You could try changing the username that backup job instance is using to see if its getting a permissions error and giving you a somewhat bogus error message. The...

    Looking for Backup Strategy

    With at least version 9 of Backup Exec you can make an online folder to backup files to. Basically what i would do in your situation is have the portable drive hooked up and set that as the location to where the data will go. Then from your Job setup in the media selection area from the drop...

    Can't see SQL DB in Selection List

    If they thought it was in the registry i would think it would be on the BE server side. Its most likely not an agent restriction but some sort of restriction on the BE server application side. I havn't had expierence with a setup that sounds exactly like yours but i have had to modify the...

    BkupExec Failed Log file

    Yeah with SQLExpress on there and not telling BE to join that Instance it was trying to make a new instance but couldn't since there already was one. You must also be using an older version.. i think everything from v10 up have been SQLExpress databases. -= Gfense / www.GFense.com =-

    Storage Agents Alerts

    If you had replaced the tape drive you can try running the veritas tape device install wizard again so it'll refresh the driver configuration. What might be happening is that drive is just a bit different so when its replying back commands to BE it might be sending something that doesn't match...

    Backup Exec 9.0-9.1

    I know when i did the upgrade i also had to re-download a veritas tape driver update because it started doing weird things with my library changers. Can you try telling it to not eject the tape in the job and see if it'll complete fully. It could be that you may need to delete the job, keep...

    How to restore just one file?!

    Depending on the version you have its normally just on the Restore tab at the top of the application. It should popup a wizard of some sort and it should show the available selections you can choose from. It should show the server / workstations you have backed up before and have available data...
