The tapes are Quantum SDLT 160/320 tapes. i have already run backups on the sdlt tapes and once the tape reaches about 80 GB, the unit moves on to the next tape. I have had problems before with Arcserve suddenly thinking our dlt tapes for our old dlt8000 library were 8MM, so this doesn't really...

Our Arcserve 2000, SP5 is seeing our Overland 4100 device with quantum sdlt 320 drives as having Compac III tapes installed, whatever those are. Both the drive and the library are on CA's certified device list. I have contacted Overland and the hardware is setup properly. Arcserve has complete...

Hi, Speshalyst, Thank you for your help. I am too embarassed to say how long we struggled with this problem and it was such a simple solution! Thank you, Heather

we are running arcserve 2000 with windows sp2 (we removed sp 3 and all hotfixes after that and the security roll up package because it was preventing files from restoring properly). However, when we try to merge tapes it will do one tape, beep like it usually does when asking for the next tape...

Hello, DebiJo, Thanks for your suggestion. I checked and it does have full control. however, the everyone group was listed as having read only rights. Would the deny everything but read-only from the everyone group override the full control permission given to the Arcserve account? Heather

Hello, Is there any way to export the activity log? When I look in Arcserve.log it has all the files from the last prune job on back, but the latest information is scattered into several hundred different text files that seem to correspond with each job. Is there a way I can just get the last...

Hello, I'm running arcserve sp4 on windows 2000 server sp3. Our backups are skipping a lot of files with the error 3406 EC=Sharing Violation. So I read that the arcserve services should be running under a domain account with the proper rights. So I created an Arcserve account, added it to the...

Is there a way to set a time limit on the amount of time a job is allowed to take? I had a server lock up over the weekend and Arcserve sat on the job for the entire weekend causing all the other scheduled jobs to not run. I was wondering if there was a way to set a time out for something like...

I am trying to backup databases and transaction logs through sql 2000. I am very new at sql and know very little about the whole thing. when I check the log in SQL Server enterprise/the sql server/management/sql server logs, it seems to back up the databases ok most of the time but never the...

Greetings, I am trying to back up SQL 2000 databases from Backup Exec v.8.6. I am constantly getting the box that wants a user name and password. No matter what account I enter, and I have double checked the passwords on all of them, it wont' accept it. The backup account has sql admin rights...

We are having a problem with Accpac's Faxserve and Exchange 2000 server running on Windows 2000 server using a Brooktrout TR114 card. Every time we try to send a fax to an area code below 255, it returns a delivery failure. This is because the area code of the fax number that the message was...

I have a remote Windows 2000 server SP2, that completely locks up after it gets backed up. There is nothing in the logs to indicate why, no error messages or anything. It was doing this before I applied SP2 and continues to do this. If I don't back it up, it doesn't lock up. It gets backed up...

I don't know if this will help but I had the same problem and did two things, I'm not sure which one or both solved the problem. I erase all the tapes before the job runs in the evening. I also ran a cleaning tape through the drive. I haven't had that error since. Hope that helps.

The server only houses user directories for the staff at that site. But, the Backup Exec remote agent is on it and that server is backed up aroud midnight each night. I didn't back it up last night and the server didn't freeze up. I think I may have found the culprit but am still unsure what to...

I have a server running WIndows 2000 SP2 that freezes up every night around 11pm or 12 am. It was doing this before I applied SP2 as well. There are no errors reported in the log before it locks up. Everything appears to be functioning normally up until it freezes. I have tried to use...
