Scan Command

$

I need a solution

Hi Experts,

We have one master server windows 2008 and 8 drives.

8 drives are visible on OS level and working fine.

We are experincing issue with the Drives 1 or 2 drives are taking too much time to mount tapes. Its an intermittent issue. Sometimes all 8 are working perfectly fine. We observed its not only a particular drive but if all 7 drives are working 1 of them is not mounting tape due to which backups are in queue and after half an hour it mounts the tape and all drives start working.

In scan -changer command on master server it shows all the 8 drives with serial number.

However scan command also shows all 8 drives with serial number and on specific each drives there are only 5 drives. Is there any issue?

or if scan -changer shows all the 8 drives is it ok? if its ok then why scan command is showing 5 drives( Indivudual details of the drives ) after showing all 8 drives ?

ERR - Cannot write to STDOUT. Errno = 110: Connection timed out

I need a solution

Hi,

I have some server didn't complete the backup and I receive ''socket write failed  (24)''.

If I look inside the log I have this information: ''ERR - Cannot write to STDOUT. Errno = 110: Connection timed out''

The connexion are good between client server and master. The full Backup are good but not the Differential Incremental Backup.

My client server is Linux Redhat 2.6.18 and my master is SunOS(5.10) version 7.5.0.6

What do you think ?

It's possible to put a trap for to see what happen during the backup ?

Thanks,

Opscentre report to report back arbirary timeframe for genuinely failed backups

I need a solution

Ops centre has a canned report for failed backups but thats not quite what I need: I need one that tells me a backup that ran and failed and didnt complete successfully at all over a period, ie the client wasnt backed up: thats primarily what we are interested in right?

In other words, lets take a typical weekends set of full backups: I need to be able to report policy/client combo failed all attempts at backup ie for that combo I have not achieved a successful backup. Lets say failed means any non-zero status.

I'm looking at the consecutive failures report....this may be what I'm after.

Thanks in advance for your input.Jim.

How to migrate backup exec history to new server

I need a solution

Hi everyone,

I'm currently setting up Backup Exec 2010 R3 on a Windows 2008 server, and I'm wondering how to migrate all of Backup Exec's history from the old server.

The old server has Backup Exec 2010 and its Windows 2003.

I'll be creating jobs from scratch to re-organize them, but I'd still like to retain job history and anything else that is suggested.

I'm not really clear on the details and differences between catalog and dabase data, and if history is kept within those or is located somewhere else.

Any suggestions are appreciated, thanks in advance!

My computer caught fire…

I was advised to repost this topic here by Symantec...

All I have got left is the external drive, (USB, 1000 GB), containing the backups.

I wasn't unduly worried – after all this is why you have backups isn't it? 

The computer was fairly old and had two IDE drives with Windows 7 and a matching motherboard with an older type of RAM. The backup was made with Ghost 12 – I had no idea that it had become obsolete.

I bought a new computer with two SATA drives. Apparently IDE drives and matching motherboards boards are no longer made. I booted from the SRD but the machine couldn't see the USB drive. I installed Windows 7 and then it could see the USB drive when I booted from the SRD. I told to restore the C drive after which it wouldn't boot from the drive.

I subsequently chatted with Symantec support who told me that if I installed the appropriate Ghost application on the new machine it would be possible to restore from my USB drive. The agent insisted that in the whole of Symantec there was not a single remaining copy of any version of ghost…

I managed to find a "Try and buy" copy of Ghost 15. Will this work? If not what can I do?

The chatline agent did not know the answer to these questions and referred me to this forum.

BackupExec Job Log for ESX

Gents,

Can you please explain, why are you doing different backup sets for each Virtual Machine in the Job Log ?

There is no summary section, how many Gb was processed by this one backup job.

I.e. if I need to know, how many Gb was in the backup, I need to open each Set entry, open each 'Backup Set Summary' and count processed bytes.

Scheduling Issues

I need a solution

Hi All,

I need your inputs on one of the issue I am currently facing related to scheduling.

Setup:-

Master Server [linux 2.6]

Media Server [Linux 2.6]

NBU Version [7.6.0.4] on both master and media server.

Admin console installed on [Windows 2008 R2 enterprise Machine]

Issue:- I need to understand which time would the backup schedules follow. I am configuring the backups through an admin console installed on a windows machine and the machine is located in EST. However the actual master and media server are located in CST time zone. Now when i configure the backup policy through an admin cosole which is installed on a windows machine located in EST time zone. Which time zone would my policies would follow.

Options 

1) MASTER SERVER time zone which is CST

2) Admin console Server which is EST.

I am bit confused as I see schedules running or triggerening at a random time and hence i am confused. Please let me know your suggestions.

Hi all,

Having some issues with restoring data using DLOCommandu -EmergencyRestore.

We have previously changed netowrk locations for our NUDF and also upgraded to DLO 7.6.

When running -

dlocommandu -emergencyrestore "\\DLOServer\DLO NUDF\COMPANYDOMAIN-user5\.dlo" -W mypassword -AP \\DLOServer\temp -i

From the original location or any location we recieve the following error -

User share path not found. The user share path format could be different from the path configured in Symantec DLO.

Anyone know of a solution to this issue?

Many thanks.

I have created a Backup job for a Synology NAS device. The full backup runs with no issues, but when it is time for an incremental backup it just preforms a full backup again.

I am using Backup exec 2014 currently. Just curious as to what I may have missed to get this working correctly.

BE2014 Optimized Duplication - 'Loading Media - Duplicate' for hours

$

I need a solution

Hi There,

I have BE2014 on the latest version, and my architecture is as follows:

-Production Environment, with CASO, Duplication Add-on, and a local dedupe store on this windows 2012 R2 server.  (no extra devices connected)

-DR environment, with a BE managed server out there, and Deduplication Add-on (no extra devices involved out there either). I have a dedupe store shared out on this managed server (shared with the CASO server in Production)

-At present, there is a 1GB LAN connection between the two servers/sites.

I have my backup jobs defined on the CASO server in production, and the data is being saved to the dedupe store in Production just fine.

I have a stage added to duplicate the data over to the shared store over in DR, but the jobs are taking forever (too long for the backup window at present).

Every time i check in on it, it's almost constantly stuck on 'Loading Media - Duplicate'

Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Replicate Adv Disk backup between remote masters

$

I need a solution

I have a situation where I need to backup 3TB of compressed data on a regular basis.  I have two 5220 appliances both acting as Master/Media servers.  I really don't want it sitting in my Dedupe pool, so I'm trying to take advantage of the 3.5TB of Advanced Disk storage that I have.  What I would like to do is to have one appliance backup the data and keep it for a week and have it copied over to the remote master and stay for another week, about 2 weeks total retention.  Any thoughts on how to do this?  I thought I could back it up to the Dedup pool on the local master, duplicate it to AdvDisk and replicate to the remote master, but that doesn't seem to be working.  I know I will have to use the Dedup pool for AIR, but I want that backup to expire immediately if possible.
