Ive received this error message when trying to run a backup. I got round this problem in Arcserve 7 by deleting the tape engine registry key, and rerunning Device Group Configuration.

Will this work with Brightstor Enterprise 10.5?

 
That same process can be used in 10.5 and 11.1.

However do not delete the debug key, barcode key, any keys for FSD File System Devices.

10.5??? Why stay on 10.5? Since it is BEB you probably are under contract for a free upgrade to 11.1.

BEB is being phased out and it will just be BAB. There are now enterprise options to cover the additional functionality that BEB had over earlier versions of BAB.
 
Thanks for that tip.

I'll look into the upgrade - my client (Xerox) has a standard build however so any upgrades would have to be installed globally... dont think i fancy that rollout!

Thanks again!
