Scheduled Backup Doesn't Start

I'm running Arcserve 2000 on a MS Windows 2000 Advanced server. I can run an interactive job with no problems, but when I schedule a job the start time passes and the job doesn't start. There are no errors in the activity log to show why it's not running - it just sits there.
 
If you are modifying the job through a terminal session and you have ARCserve2000 < SP4 then you will need to stop and restart the job engine. The issue w/ terminal services is resolved with sp4.

Also, this sounds silly, but check the day on your schedule. I have sat there waiting, became frustrated and then realized that the job is scheduled to start tomorrow at the same time. :)

Also you may want to modify the job and check the destination. I've had it before where I have a group0 and a group1 defined. I have my tape drive associated with group1 but the backup job is looking to group0- when it does that it justs sits there and the job never executes.
