Backup to disk jobs - number of images available

I need a solution

I currently have a job that backs up the Exchange databases to disk, a duplicate job then runs which copies the B2D to tape.

The backup to Disk job is holding 2 nights worth of the backups on the disk. Is there a way I can reduce this to only hold 1 night which gets overwritten the following day?

I've looked at all the options but dont seem to be able to find anything.

Many thanks!

Error during restoring from .bkf restored from tape

I need a solution

Hello!

We got a small problem here!

We have .bkf named B2D000508 restored from tape. It was placed on a newly created backup-to-disk folder. That folder was inventoried and .bkf was catalyzed. When we tried to restore data from it we got this:

1.png

At the moment it was restored there was another media with the same name but on another backup-to-disk folder. We placed it in retired media set and deleted it from BE but it didn't help. Now we don't have media named B2D000508

So how can we restore our data?

Credential test failing

I need a solution

Hello

I have just setup Backup Exec 2014 on a Windows 2008 Standard server, backing up an Exchange 2010 server. I was not getting a notification that the backup job was either complete or failing, just no notification at all. I researched this and found that I needed to change the login account, which I did. when I run the Test credentials though, although most test pass, the test against the mailbox databases fails, with "Test Failed, Test Recommended." What do I need to do to make this work? The login account has domain admin rights and is a member of the Exchange Mail Admins.

I need a solution

Hi,

I'm planning to install Backup Exec 2014 to my environment. Currently I have single physical server with Windows Server 2012 (Hyper-V host) and it's running five Windows server 2012 virtual machines. Where should I install Backup Exec in this situation? Should I install it directly to Hyper-V host or in a dedicated virtual machine? I'm using NAS as my backup storage (connects via ISCSI)

Hallo,

wir haben eine virtuelle Maschinen die über einen USB-to-Lan Adapter ein USB Dongle eingebunden hat und ein Laufwerk zugewiesen bekommt. Backup Exec 2014 kann diese virtuelle Maschine nicht sichern, da auf das Laufwerk nicht zugegriffen werden kann.

Besteht eine Möglichkeit die Sicherung dennoch durchführen zu können, ohne, dass ich die Maschine einzeln sichere und das Laufwerk ausschließe?

I need a solution

We have Symantec Backup Exec 12.5 Rev. 2213 installed on Windows Server 2003 R2 with SQL jobs defined.
One of those jobs is performing full SQL backup (Backup entire database or filegroup), the other one backs up transaction log.
Database log file is growing and needs to be shrinked. Is there a way to shrink it through BE configuration or must I start Pre/Post command to accomplish this? If so, which command(s) and at which point in time?
Please advise.

Backup Exec 2010R3 Jobs Now failing with Error Code E0000602

I need a solution

Beginning on 1-14-15 BE daily backup jobs started to fail, although no hardware changes had been made to our enviroment, and no modifications made to the backup job.  As suggested in some of the forum threads I disabled BE services and ran CatRebuildIndex.exe, then restarted services, but the error persisted.  Then, also as suggested, I disabled BE services, renamed the Catalog folder to force the create of a new one, ran CatRebuildIndex.exe, then restarted services, but the error continues to persist. Does anyone have an idea of what is going on?  Oddly enough, the Saturday job has run successfully once during this period.

Under Job Completion Status:

Tape library names incorrect in BE

I need a solution

We have just installed a new Dell PowerVault TL2000 dual tape library. The old library was a single drive unit. I have disabled the 2nd drive until we get a license to use the 2nd drive.

When a backup takes place according to the Dell login URL it is backing up to drive 2, however BE says it's backing up to drive 1.

Screenshots attached which will hopefully explain things better.

System don't boot after SDR-recovery

I need a solution

Hello out there,

I tried to perform an SDR recovery of one of my DC (Windows Server 2008 R2) using a customized SDR disc (included the drivers of the "old" machine).

After adding a registry key as mentioned in http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH188910 the recovery process starts and I dont get any errors anymore.

But unfortunately I only have a black screen and a blinking cursor after rebooting the system.

Booting again by the SDR-disk shows all harddisks and partitions as its on my working machine.

Any suggestions how i can convince my recoverd Server to boot now?

Sorry for my bad english.

Hi Guys.

Has anyone had any experience using Backup Exec 2014 to backup a Windows 2003 Server running Exchange 2003.

I know on the SCL it lists Exchange 2003 as not supported anymore but it does say that the Agents for applications and Databases are still backwards compatible with Backup Exec 2014.

thanks for any replies.

orphaned AVHDX Files after Hyper-V Guest Backup (Full/Inc)

$

I need a solution

I have two Hyper-V 2012 R2 Update 1 Host Server with several Hyper-V Guest (2012 R2, 2012, 2008).
I use BE 2014 SP2 and do regular full backups and daily incremental backups of guests.

Within the Virtual Hard Disks folder, a AVHDX File is created during the backup.
These differential VHDX Files are created during running backup jobs.

If i open the explorer at the Hyper-V Host i can see these files beeing created and merged after the the backup has finished.
If i query the state of the VM guest with get-vmsnapshot servername i receive this information

servername   servername  - Backup - (17.01.2015 - 09:20:33)     Recovery     01.01.1601 01:00:00

not all, but some machines are showing the state Recovery and all these machines have growing AVHDX files.

Some of these are backed up with a full backup only and some with incremental.
The machine above has only a full backup once a week.

Is this normal, that AVHDX files are remaining after a full backup or after a incremental backup?
I can´t find any information in the whitepapers or knowledbase how the backup deals with the backup.
Can someone explain how it is by design?

Thanks

Jürgen


Backup Exec Migration from 2012 to 2014 on new Hardware

I need a solution

Hey there,

my name is Manuel and I'm new in thos Forum.

Actually I've to migrate a Backup Exec 2012 on old Hardware (Server 2008 R2 Std.) to Backup Exec 2014 on new Hardware (Server 2008 R2 Std.).

On both Server, I disabled all BE Services.

Then, on the old Server, I've started Backup Exec Utility and added the new Server.
After that I started to copy the Database, but this doesn't work. I get the error Message (German):

"Daten aus angegebenen Datenbankdateien kopieren.

Der Zugriff auf die Registrierungsschlüssel des ausgewählten Servers NewServer.Domain.local zum Abrufen der Backup Exec-Versionsnummern schlug fehl.

Speicherortänderung der Backup Exec-Datenbank zu SQL Server-Instanz NewServer.Domain.local mit Fehlern beendet."

In BEUtility, both Servers are marked as "unknown", Firewall is inactive. Both Servers are Domain-Members and the User Account, I do the changes, is Domain Admin.

So, what can I do to solve this issue?

Kind Regards

Manuel

The restricted encryption key 'xxxxxxx' cannot be used because the key owner could not be validated within the time limit. The host server of the key owner may be inaccessible or busy. Try again later, or choose a different encryption key.

Hello

I have an Exchange 2010 running on Windows 2008R2, which I am backingup with BackupExec 2014. You will see in the attached log file the error I am getting. On researching it, I came to this: https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/forums/exchange-2010-cmdlet-failed-events-during-backup-operation

Has there been a hotfix or update to solve this issue?

Cannot logon to mapi randomly

I need a solution

Hey folks,

We have a SBS 2008 server running with Exchange 2007. It is backed up with Backup Exec 12.5 to a tape. For most of the time it was running great. However, from time to time we're getting an error which stopps the backup. The error is E00002FE and says that the backup can not log on to MAPI with the credentials. The credentials haven't changed. I'm using a domain, exchange, schema administrator account for this backup and he has his own post box.

Following some hints from the www I've disabled IPv6 and added some lines to the hosts file which lead directly to the server itself. I've also checked that the first storage group of the exchange is on first position of the ressource order. I've also checked with MFCMAPI and there are now errors on accessing the exchange database and mailboxes.

Regarding this the only possible breaking point would be 8. But can this be resolved, worked around or anything? This backup is now running for years..

Last week backup was fine but the last 3 daily backups ended with this error. We had the issue before, one of my colleague somehow took care of it and then didn't write down how. Maybe he even ignored it till it was gone, I can't tell. He's not available for research on this so I come to you asking for help :)

I appreciate every answer, if you need more information do not hesitate to ask.
