I am new to Backup Exec. I have 5 tapes for a work week and all I want to do is stick a tape in, back up over night and repeat every work day each week. I have set up each tape to be overwritten (infinate). It worked fine the first week. Now when I come in in the morning the tape is ejected and hung up at logging onto media and it says my back up is in a state of running. I can't do anything to make it stop. I have to reboot NT for it to stop. I am at a point where no tape seems to work so I am unable to back up. Can anyone help. I want to keep this simple and the manual has absolutely confused me. This program seems to be a lot more powerful than I need it to be. Plus, the old version 7.something we have is no longer supported by Veritas, so there is little to no documentation on their site. Are there any easier back up programs? Any help is appreciated.
