    Variable throughput on LTO3 drive

    Hi David, thanks for the response I contacted the tape drive manufacturer, Quantum, and it was sorted out pretty quick. I had been using SCSI ID 8 for the drive, and was advised to use ID 6 instead. Since then the drive throughput has been consistently over 800MB per sec.

    how to upgrade r11.1

    I upgraded from 11.1 to 12 without a problem. I checked the documentation before upgrading and made sure this was an available option. The upgrade went without a hitch. The database was converted, all job logs were imported, and the whole process was over in less than 40 minutes (on a dual core...

    Database Protection Job merged with GFS rotation scheme

    Hello, David Many thanks for the answer. It's a relief knowing that I can simply add the option to backup the database to the GFS job. I'm using SQL Express, so I expect that simply reinstalling ArcServe then restoring the database if required will be sufficient. Enjoy your weekend! Cheers!

    backup incomplete

    Glad you got it sorted out.

    backup incomplete

    When you modify the job, can you not see these files listed? When I remove folders/files I often forget to modify the job and Arcserve will report that the backup is incomplete the next time the job runs. Modifying the job and de-selecting the files fixes it.

    Variable throughput on LTO3 drive

    Hi I recently installed an external Quantum LTO3 drive. The drive appears to be working fine, but in the time we have had it (less than 2 weeks), throughput has varied. Normal backup operations take 6.5 hrs to backup 315GB of data. Twice this has dropped to 13hrs. Checking the logs, the...

    Database Protection Job merged with GFS rotation scheme

    Hi Folks I have just upgraded our installation of Arcserve from 11.1 to 12. Everything is working fine but I am a little confused about the database protection job (DPJ). I don't understand why the job needs its own media. From what I have read, the DPJ backs up essential elements of the sql...

    Can I keep my Dat72 and LTO3 connected at the same time?

    Hi, David Thank you for that. If we need to restore data then I will remove the LTO and connect the DAT72 in its place as there is just one controller in the server. Thanks again. Cheers! Mark

    Restoring from an old backup tape:

    Have you used the Merge function to add the database to Arcserve? Once you have done this you should be able to view the session status and query the database for specific files/folders.

    Can I keep my Dat72 and LTO3 connected at the same time?

    Hi Folks I am preparing to upgrade from Arcserve 11.1 to 12.5. I have been using a DAT72 drive on our server but have purchased a Quantum LTO3 to use for future backups after the upgrade. I have done this because the number of DAT72 tapes used has reached 8 for a full backup and it takes 24hrs...

    Document access monitor

    That's a great link, thanks very much for the information. It is to assist a member of staff who has a genuine memory problem. They need to be able to see the files they have opened so that they can fill out a timesheet (all our files are named according to project). At present, filling out a...

    Document access monitor

    Thanks for the reply I would like to install it on a Windows XP PC, hence the post here. I would like to monitor which documents are opened on the XP PC. I am not interested in remotely monitoring a PC. All monitoring will be local.

    Document access monitor

    Hi Does anyone know of a reliable program that records document access? e.g. when *.doc, *.xls were opened. Thanks.

    Copying drawn lines in Excel 2003

    Oh, man! Thanks very much indeed. Why did I not try to copy the cell????? That is the solution. I can't believe that I've spent so long doing it incorrectly. You each have my gratitude. Waiter! Get these people a drink :)

    Copying drawn lines in Excel 2003

    That has the same result. What I want to do is copy the line, select a cell, paste it in the cell, select the next cell paste it etc etc. I have to link numbers together thus: http://img75.imageshack.us/img75/6118/excelline2so6.jpg Pasting the lines is the easiest way to do it.

    Copying drawn lines in Excel 2003

    Hmmm, what I want to happen is for the line/shape to appear in the destination cell as selected, not several cells away from it. Here you can see that when I select a cell, right-click>Paste, the line is copied to a completely different cell...

    Copying drawn lines in Excel 2003

    Hello folks For years, when I copy a drawn line in Excel, I select the cell to paste it in and it appears several cells away from the selection. The only real way around this is to put the line, circle etc in cell A1. When copying and pasting it from there, the drawn line appears in the...

    Win Defender port change request

    For anyone interested, I discovered where this was coming from. The source is Group Policy Objects. Today I was configuring the firewall port exceptions for the domain and standard profiles and removed an old one for 3389. About 1 hour after setting the exceptions, Windows Defender popped up...

    troubleshooting arcserver 11.1

    Is compression either on the hardware device or within ArcServe properly set? Usually, as far as I am aware, the default is for ArcServe to set compression on the hardware because this is more efficient. When you say a 40GB tape, do you mean 40GB compressed capacity? Don't forget that if the...
