I am running Arcserve 2000 and using MSSQL as the database. Is anyone running this configuraton? I need to do some maintenance on the database and don't want to loose all the tape and job records. I believe in Arcserve 6.1 this was possible on the rima database. I have purning set to 21 days and...

I am running ARcserve 2000 on Windows 2k service pack 2. I have several MSSQL 2000 databases to backup with the ARCserve SQL agent installed. Can anyone tell me if the perfered agent configuration is to use named pipes or TCP/IP and what the difference between the two is.

Running ARCserve 2000 SP3 on Windows 2000. I have ARCserve clients that run the client agent, OFA and SQL agent all for ARCserve 2000 SP3. These are all clean installs of the agents not upgrades. In the windows system log I have a OFA warning event id 48. The warning is "Backup agent for...

I have several servers running the NT client for ARCserve 6.61 Advanced. I would like to back them up to a server running ARCserve 2000. Is there an upgrade path for the client agent or do I just install the NT/2000 client for ARCservre 2000 on top of the old one?

Yes, expand the media pool that so that you see the save and scratch set. Right click the set that has the media you want to move. Click remove media, select the media you want this will move the media out of the pool. Expand the media pool save set where you want to put the media. Right click...

Thanks, I will give that a try.

We don't run exchange but our SQL DB is over 500GB. The last test restore we tried was over 300GB. There was a registry setting for the agent that we had to increase the key was "Max_vdi_wait_time". There may be a similar reg key for exchange.

If the only issue is the connection to the client agent the media should still eject. The only time I've seen media remain in the drive and not get placed back into the proper slot is bad media. Have you cleaned the heads on the tape recently, that may help.

I kinda got this handed to me a short time ago. I am running Omniback 3.5 for NT. If I install an Omniback patch on the cell manager, do I have to also patch the agents on the clients? Will installing a patch on the cell manager update the certified device list, or do I have to do something...

Has anyone been daring enough to try the new release? I think I read that it uses tape stripping for the RAID option. Is anyone using raid with v9 and if so is there an increase in performance?

If you have no sub directories clicking the plus will not expand. You have to click on the actual name of the directory and this will list the files in the show list window. If you click the version history tab after that you should see all the versions that are recorded in the DB.

Are you using the client agent as opposed to the network to so the backup? The client agent will push data and may solve your issue.

Have you tried using the local sa account? Program Files>ARCserveServerAdmin>Admin>MS SQL user account confirm that ARCserve is using the sa account.

I think there are some problems with your ARCserve enviroment. Are you running the correct client agents? How have you established that the tape engine goes idle? The tape engine is either running or it isn't. Do you have any errors in the ARCserve log? Have you checked your NIC cards and...

For SQL2000 get LO82876 from the CA website. Then install the patches.

Make sure that your NIC cards match your switch setting. If they are set to auto, try 100/full.

Are both the drives the same make and model? It could be a block size issue. After your prodution enviroment writes to the tape the test enviroment drive may be looking for a different block size on the media. If you backup to your test drive can your production drive read that?

When you so a restore of a SQL DB you will have to do it through the network.

In the backup window, drill down to the database name that you want to backup. Right click that DB and select Backup Agent Option. You can select differential SQL DB backups there. I have been told 2 different things doing DB backups, over the network and through the client agent. I have...

I don't know of anyway to do that. I have a backup of the transaction logs scheduled for every 2 hours. If a DB backup is running and the transaction log job tries to start it will not be able to connect to the agent and fail. Then once the DB job completes the the next scheduled log job will...
