Unfortunately, I've haven't found anything that works any better. Only some that works worse. ![[sad]](/data/assets/smilies/sad.gif "[sad] [sad]")

I have done so much with so little
for so long that they think I am now
qualified to do anything with nothing.

It seems you guys have a pretty good handle with the dealings of this software.
Backup Exec 8.50
MS Exchange
Windows 2k Server
I have a problem, ever since July 4th holiday we did not replace the tape on July 5th and returned to replace the tape on Monday, July 8th. The backup has not worked since.
I tried everything from:
rebuilding the schedule job,
cleaning tape drive,
new tapes,
new hardware drivers,
unchecking follow junction points,
unchecking verify option,
renaming the catalog directory,
checking the license and version numbers,
checking with Veritas Support and no help except that it might be hardware related.
I think it is something in the software because run a complete successful backup on the exchange server.
Our company has more than 60 workstations and I ma starting to wonder if one of them is left on will the backup run?
Please respond with anything. Tell me to find another job.
Thanks

I have to disagree. I like the Veritas Backup exec software. I think it is user friendly. Guess it depends on the environment. Try using Arcserve and you would appreciate backup exec in my opinion.

I agree with Zoeythecat. Arcserve2000 is worst than Backup Exec. All backup software have their short commings. Its just some are more problematic than others. I like Legato and Backup Exec. Arcserve leaves much to be desire! It is not user friendly.

All backup software is a joke.
You look at the list of hot fixes for Arcserve 2000, things like "Fix for corrupt files on restore", DUH!
The one piece of software that should work flawlessly (its a file copy for christ sake) in a diaster and its the first to pack up and go home.
BOO! BOO! ComputerAssociates & Veritas
Paraody of their add:

"Backup Exec leaves everything else in the dust"
Software Company.
Veritas.
I'll say it leaves everything else in its dusts, mainly 'cos it just blew up

Guess I must have the good version of Backupexec. Never had any problems restoring or backing up files.
Don't take this the wrong way, but Zoey, you sound like the pro.
I am having a serious problem that I have posted all over this forum and others and contacted Veritas. This problem started July 4th. We have a scheduled event that runs every night approx. 11pm and ejects the tape when completed. July 4th holiday we did not replace the tape and did replace on july 8th. ever since the jobs have been failing and a couple not completing.
I tried everything I and others could possibly think. I even tried not backuping up the mailboxes thing that might throw the failure. Before the 4th we never had a failure on corrupted mailboxes.
This is the log file of a job that did write bytes to the tape, but is failing on the verify. Yesterday, I had a job that would not complete.

Jspirit,
I am definitely not the expert. Just reporting good things in my enviornment backing up with BackupExec 8.6. Here is an article from the Veritas knowledgebase that may help. Basically what this article is telling you is download latest fixes for 8.5 or upgrade to 8.6. Check it out and let me know how you make out. Hopefully if this gets resolved Bob Jones will give you Rangers tickets.

I'm reading your post rather quickly and I'm taking a guess here based on the obvious error I see from your paste.
I had the same error and had the user delete this item from their box and any other item noted and had no further issues. But, that's just my quick guess. And, yes, you should always patch your software to the latest, more so if your having issues.
WARNING: "Bob J Jones [B_Jones]?Top of Information Store?Inbox?NYRangers Pre-Season Schedule" is a corrupt file.
This file cannot verify.

I too would have to agree that BK Exec is a good piece of software, it simple and effective and does what it's supposed to do well. No problems here.
Jspirit, Have you tried deleting the messages that it says are corrupt, out of the mailbox it mentions ?. We had a similar problem a short time ago and found that deleting the offending mail and then restoring them from a successful backup was the way to go.

I'm a NY Rangers fan. But that's not why I am entering the forum.
With Backup Exec, check the message regarding OFO, virus scans, etc. Also, if the file can be removed, it could resolve the corrupt file problem. v 3878 of 8.6 seems to have resolve some of the problems.
I have been using Backup Exec 8.6 almost a year and I have had some success. Some failures, too.

I have a few issues with Veritas Backup as it's not the most user-friendly of programs. My major issue with it is the Virus Protection Update, which is not configurable in any way (not from what I can find anyway), all you can do is just run the job and that's it. No FTP site setup, no user credentials info, nothing.
Other issues are things like it just stopping backing up for no reason at all. I discovered to my dismay a few weeks back that there had been no backups for over two weeks! EEK! I chose not to mention this to my bosses...
I reckon it was probably my fault but still, it is darn annoying.

Same here Jo0lz. I could not figure out why the backup kept failing on mail. I finally deleted all the mail and told everyone we were performing regular mailbox cleanup procedures. Now i am getting OFO errors in the BE logs.
I contacted Veritas and upon reading there lengthy email they finally advised to reinstall the software. I did and now I can't get the OFO to initialize drives.
Supposedly when this software is working it works great!!!
