Did not see this on the forum before, but I've spent the last 2 weeks trying everything under the sun to repair an Arcserve 7.0 SP4 installation that has been running just fine for years. The last change I made to the server was installing SP3 for W2k + critical updates. This is what I have:
Dell Power Edge 4300
Exabyte X200 Library
Adaptec AHA-2944UW controller
Windows 2000 SP3
While I was not able to manage the library while SP3 was installed I could still manage an older library (Exabyte X220). So I'm thinking it is a compatability issue with either the library or the controller.
Just thought I'd share this info in case someone ran into the same issue. Solution: roll back the OS to SP2.
