Scheduled 22:00 - actual start 04:00

[pabby]

HI,

Sometimes my server backups seem to start at 04:00 even though the scheduled start is 22:00. My past three or 4 backups started at 22:04 and took approx 4 hours and were successful. The ones that seem to start at 4am (even though the schedule states 22:00) run up till about 8 or 9am and the elapsed time is reported as 10 and 11 hours.

Has anyone seen this type of thing before ?

thanks,

Paul

Overwrite protection on the tapes - it expires at 4am, so the backup starts then.
Check for any please insert overwritable media alerts - if there are any - go in and change your overwrite protection on the media set u use.
