Using Backup Exec 2014. The job was skipped (msg below) and I am not able to re-run the duplicate. If I right click on the job and say run now it is skipped again with the message:

e000e054 - The job was skipped because the source backup job is not present.

This is a similar situation to www.symantec.com/connect/forums/cant-rerun-duplicate-job-be-2014but not identical. In this case the backup stage is configured to duplicate the Most Recent Full Backup - as far as I understand it should be possible to re-run. The last full backup was successful, went to a disk that is online and is not due to expire for several weeks.

I have deleted and re-created the duplicate stage. Hoping to avoid deleting and re-creating the entire job.

I need some help understanding the licensing structure if I choose to go the CASO route.  With one existing Backup Exec Server, do I need to purchase another Backup Exec Server license and the ESO option to add another server?  Or can I just purchase the ESO option?  Is there anything else I should be considering?

Thanks.

Hello,

I am having an issue with my BackUp Exec. It is apparantly a well know issue, but non of the solutions I could find on the web worked for me.

So to start this is my system design at the moment:

Backup exec is 2014 version 14.1 rev 1786 64-bit, with service pack 1 installed. The software is running on a VMware virtualised Server 2012. The disk to which the data is being backeud up is an iSCSI target living on a Synology storage array.

Problematic system is a file share server running under Server 2012, where the disks with shared data are iSCSI targets also living on a Synology storage array (not the same as the backup one, they are different boxes).

The jobs fails on random files, no pattern that I can see. Originally I was backing up the entire shared folder (aroung 300GB) but when it all starder failing I split it down to smaller or larger chunks where I backup data by departments. As a reasult now I have around 10 jobs. This helped a bit as not majority or data is backed up, but still 2--5 jobs will fail with the E000FE36 error. Again random files, no patter and the same backup job will run ok the next day.

I have tried with AOFO switched on and of with Shadow copies storage enabled and disabled on th client server, pretty much any combinatin of properties I could have think of, but still no joy :(

Any ideas what might be the cause of this problem?

Hi,

my BE 2014 SP2 is failing with the following error while backing up a virtual machine:

V-79-57344-3844 - The Backup Exec server could not connect to the remote computer. Ensure that a Backup Exec agent is installed and running on the remote computer. If a Backup Exec agent is installed, ensure that it is the correct version.

This is happening all the time.

I've seen that there are a few technotes addressing this issue:

http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH216011

although it is not mentioned for BE 2014 SP2.

Whole server as well as it's agents are at the latest patch level.

Did anyone come across this issue?

Hello:

I just bought numerous licenses for Symantec BEX 2014, in this case a total of 4.  The plan is to install a backup server per site, per administrator to run and manage separately though all within the same larger network.  The SLF file produced combined all four licenses where each server now displays four licenses each giving the appearance that there are 16 licenses in total.  Is there a way to separate the SLF into four different files so I don't run into this issue?  Please keep in mind that my network does not touch the Internet so there's no way of commuinicating back to Symantec or anything of the like.

Thanks.

Hello:

Just bought 4 BEX 2014 licenses for 4 sites with admins to manage on their own...Because the SLF combines all 4 licenses, each BEX server shows 4 licenses each giving the false impression of using 16 licenses total.  How can I split the SLF into 4 separate licenses?  Network does not have Internet access nor will it in the future.

Thanks.

I'm a newbie with Backup Exec 2014 and am having issues setting up a job using client side deuplication.

My setup is Backup Exec 2014 running on Server 2012 R2 with a NAS as the deduplication drive. The job I've created is for a Server 2003 machine and when client side deduplication is enabled within the job I am getting is:

Client-side deduplication is enabled for this job, but it could not be used. Please check this link for additional information:
http://entsupport.symantec.com/umi/V-79-18273.

I've looked at the the following article for help but it didn't really help:

http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH77683

It does say to:

"Configure the Remote Agent with Deduplication on the agent that is being backed up.

1. Go to the Devices tab in Backup Exec console.
2. Right click on the media server node in question and select the Add Remote Agent for Deduplication menu item.
3. Specify the Server Name for the Remote Agent that is being configured and select Ok.

Note: Backup Exec will prompt to restart the services before this configuration takes effect.

Restart the Backup Exec services on the media server and run the job again. Verify that it completes successfully with the deduplication feature working as desired"

However, I don't think these instructions match anything I'm seeing in BE 2014. Can someone tell me if these instrucitons are correct for BE 2014 and if not is there anything special I need to do with regards to the client agent for deduplication?

Thanks!

I get this every so often on a NDMP job.

The event viewer on the media server shows

"The job failed with the following error: The NDMP subsystem reports that a request cannot be processed because it is in the wrong state to service the request."

With the job erroring out with

"V-79-57344-65072 - A communications failure has occurred. Remote Agent not detected on netappclusterdevice:10000. "

I read this article

http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?pag...

but states to update the agent, this is a NetApp Cluster with OnTap 8.2.2 so there is no agent. Yes, we currently backing up a cluster, with 95% success. We do have issues with this error being one.

Of course it won't detect a remote agent as it is a NDMP device. but if I had to guess it isn't detecting NDMP at all at that point right? also, if I just re-run the job it usually runs fine. I believe it usually happens when 4 NDMP jobs are running at once.

Anybody else experience anythig like this? just chekcing before I talk to india......lol

Hi, I am using BE 2014. I have two tapes in my autoloader. For tape A the "Overwrite Protected Until" column says 25 Jan 2015 and for the tape B it is 20 Jan 2015. For both the tapes the "Appendable Until" column says Not appendable. When I run a backup job now the backup is done to tape B. My concern is once the tape B gets full what will happen to the backup jobs. Are they going to overwrite the contents on tape B or use tape A? I do not want to overwrite the contents on tape B as I am taking one time backups which I want to store for life time.

Any documents which explains how the tapes are used?

Hello!

Can someone explain it to me, why Backupexec 2010 R3 crashes when windows installs updates and then restarts itself while jobs are running ?
The same happens if you manualy restart server while jobs are running.

If you are lucky, simple service restart helps, if you arent u have to reinstall the backupexec.

Happens on win 2003 servers

Happens on win 2008 servers  

Happens on win 2012 servers. 

I dont get it, The program costs a lot of money and it can`t survive simple server restart.

I`m responsible for more than 30 servers with backupexec and its always the same. If Backupexec doesn`t work check when the server was restarted and in 95% of cases the reason for backupexec fail is server restart.

Best regards

Andrej

Hi

We had a storage dataloss on our deduplication storage. We created a new storage to host a new deduplication storage.

As Backup Exec can only host one deduplication storage, I needed to delete the old one from the interface. It never really finished. The old deduplication storage disappeared from interface, but delete task was still running after a few hours.

I was able to create the new deduplication storage and restart backups but old catalogs are still there as delete task never finished.

Is there a way to delete old catalogs to prevent Backup Exec to show me that I can restore Data that dont exist anymore as old dedup storage was lost ?

Hello,

in our BE 2014 SP1 server environment  I have setup a GRT backup job for a VM Server hosting Oracle 10g2 database. In this server the BE Agent for application and databases has also installed.

My question is related to the deletion of archive log files

AFAIK there's no such option in backup job definitions (as the selectable one into the job definitions when we setup a backup job using the agent for windows) when we need to backup the VM.

Is there any way to do this using the same backup job?

Thx in advance
