For some time now we have been receiving the message:

The job was scheduled to run, but the availability window closed before the job could start. There may not have been any destination devices available during the window, or the job may have been submitted to run when the window was closed.

following the SUCCESSFUL completion of the backup job. This message is repeated every 5 seconds and only a restart of the services will stop it. But the same problem occurs the following night.

The availability window is 1am to 2am and the backup job starts in this time. The backup and verify finishes around 4am at which point these error messages start.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Robert
 
Steveot probably knows but my guess is:
The verify is a separate job. Perhaps the complaint is that it can't start within the alloted time.

Just a guess...
 
Thanks Lawn

The jobname reported (in Job History) is the same as the successful backup name and starts immediately after the backup finishes.

Other info: Version 10.0 and this has been happening since December.

 
For completeness:

Deleting the job in question and recreating it seems to have solved the problem.

Thanks All
