v9.1, Exchange Agent, job just keeps running...

[PaulMThomas]

I am running BackupExec v9.1 on a Windows 2003 server. One of the jobs backs up the MS Exchange 5.5 (On NT4 Server) server via a agent.

This has worked fine for a couple of years but recently the job just doesn't stop. It keeps running and the byte count just keeps increasing way beyond the possible amount of space on the server!

Any assistance please?

Just to add, I have noticed in the Job Activity for the running job (Backing up Public Folders at the moment) it says Corrupt Files: 1.

Does this mean a corruption in my Public Folders database?

I ran ESEUTIL and ISINTEG on both databases yesterday.

I had the same problem a couple of weeks ago.

I took the exchange server offline and performed maintenance on the database. It works fine now.

Hi Lordmathos

What maintenance did you perform?

Thanks

Paul

restart the service, that worked for me

Have tried that, rebooted server few times and run isinteg and eseutil.
