chances are it's a hardware problem. have you tried everything in the CA link in this thread? http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1361317&page=1

What conditon is the tape in? Are you able to format it succesfully? can you try a new tape? Are there any other errors with it?

my experience with e3719 is, if it happens only on a couple tapes but works fine on others, than there is something wrong with the tape(s). but if it happens on every tape the tape drive may need to be replaced... You may want to check and make sure the media isn't write protected.

How old are the tapes? if they have expired they may need to be reformatted or replaced.

Hi, I have a number of servers that require the SP3 upgrade, and was wondering if there was a way to create a generic setup.icf that would grab all the current settings from the Arcserve 11.5 SP2 install that they currently have. So that I could silently install SP3 to them. Any Ideas if this...

Hi, I installed a tape library recently on one of my servers and am noticing that it is creating multiple entries for the tapes when it runs the job. The tape name and ID remains the same but the Serial numbers are different, One has the Barcode number and the other(s) have generated serial...

I had that problem with the caroot password, the 11.5 SP2 install blanks the password. so if you entered nothing as a password it would let you log into the manager. I normally just change it back to how it was though...

for the first job I made a simple rotation which does the Mon-Thursday fine and names the tapes 'day - servername' when I make a custom job for the fridays though with preformatted tapes, when it grabs a tape for the friday job it reformats it as dd/mm/yy. Any idea why its doing that?

Is there a way to turn the auto naming off in GFS or within a simple rotation allow for four differently named Friday tapes?

Hi, I just got a new autoloader and am trying to determine the best way to create the backup jobs on it. OS:Windows 2000 SP4 Version: r11.5 SP2 Normally for regular servers I don't use media pools and I set up two seperate backup jobs. The first does Monday night to Thursday night and the...

Okay, I checked out that link, but am not really sure how to create the .ini file... here is one of the patches I want to install silently http://supportconnect.ca.com/sc/solcenter/sol_detail.jsp?aparno=QO82963&os=NT&returninput=0&prev=true I'll see if I can find the remotely possible utility...

You could try doing a DBFix as shown here: http://supportconnect.ca.com/sc/kb/techdetail.jsp?searchID=TEC389855&docid=389855&bypass=yes&fromscreen=kbresults Or if you don't mind re-merging tapes, you could try Initializing the database, In Server Admin, select the database engine tab, then go...

Hi, Is it possible to create a response files for patches? I've never made one before. I'd like to be able to silently push 2 arcserve patches using SMS, but only local and remote appear as options when I click the mastersetup.exe How do I create a response file? or is there a switch that...

I have a check box in that field. but it still only shows active and on hold jobs. It's like it is ignoring the "display done jobs with the following results" section altogether.
