About a year ago I was setting up Backup Exec 2010 to backup to USB drives using Backup to Disk. I encountered a problem, the solution to which I got from (I think) a Symantec KB article which was to create empty dummy files named the same as all the other backup folders. So if my disks (and the B2D folders) were called backup1, backup2, backup3, backup4 then on the backup1 disk I created files called backup2, backup3, backup4.
I can't recall whether this was a fix for a specific issue or something that was good practice and I can't find the KB article to check. It might have had something to do with all the drives having the same fixed drive letter and needing to do this to stop Backup Exec getting confused, maybe.
Does any of this mean anything to anyone? Can anyone point me to the KB?
