Backup Exec 2010 System State Fails E000FEDD

I need a solution

I know there has been a lot of discussion and related articles for the system state backup failures. I have been through most of them and have had no success on a Windows 2003 Server with Backup Exec 2010. I have tried most of the fixes and suggestions and it completes fine with NTBackup.

I'm am still getting:

V-79-57344-65245 - A failure occurred accessing the object list.

The item System?State\Active Directory\C:_WINDOWS_NTDS\ntds in use - skipped.
V-79-57344-65245 - A failure occurred accessing the object list.

The item System?State\COM+ Class Registration Database\COM+ REGDB in use - skipped.
V-79-57344-65245 - A failure occurred accessing the object list.

The item System?State\Internet Information Services\IISMETABASE in use - skipped.
V-79-57344-65245 - A failure occurred accessing the object list.

The item System?State\Registry\Registry in use - skipped.
V-79-57344-65245 - A failure occurred accessing the object list.

The item System?State\System Files\System Files in use - skipped.
V-79-57344-65245 - A failure occurred accessing the object list.

The item System?State\SYSVOL\SYSVOL\8e7591ee-71bd-4513-a34938fc4d2c58e0 in use - skipped.

Disks are ok, disk space is ok, memory is ok, I have applied all updates for Windows and Backup Exec, Backups that do not include the System State run fine, System State backup with NTBackup run fine, I've tried AOFO, changed BEUtility settings, etc, etc. Nothing out there seems to help, so if anyone has any further suggestions I would greatly appreciate them.

After migrating to BE 2012

I need a solution

Hi All,

I've finally gotten to my W2008R2 file server migration and thus a new install of BEX 2012.  I have re-attached my same Quantum LTO-4 tape drive.  I will start fresh (ie, no migration or upgrade/import from BEX10d).  From what I have been reading here, I believe I need to invetory and catalog the drive and setup my new backup scheme using the tape drive, but before I do anything, I want to make sure;

1. Is it best to use the Symatec drivers or the Quantum drivers since I have the choice?  

2. I want to be able to recover data if necessary, from the old tapes (that willl serve as past monthly/yearly full backup archives) collected on my old W2003, BEX 10d file server.  I'd make a "Restore Data" directory on the new server and restore to it if old files are ever needed.  Is it as easy as putting the the tapes into the drive, invetorying and cataloging them, and then seeing the contained data to restore?  

3. Still unclear on the ups and downs of using hardware vs. software compression and if they are widely recommended.  

Tnx in advance!

Backup to disk set to OPP 0 and APP 0 but backup still retains 2 days data

I need a solution

Dear Community,

I am not sure if this is a bug or not.

 

Scenario:

My backup (Backup vm daily) is set to backup to disk with an OPP and APP of 0 and then upon job completion, it is duplicated to tape.

 

Problem:

I am still able to see  my VM which is backed up 2 days ago. Why is that so? If my understanding is correct, I should only be able to see data which is backed up the previous day only.

 

This has been an ongoing problem all along but lately, my storage is out of space hence i have decided to post the issue here. Did I mis-configure or is this a bug or?

Advice appreciated please. 

 

I have attached the logs and my backup exec version is 2010 R3

Happy new year!

Hello,

Need help with most fragile release of Backup Exec,

All of sudden AVVI \ non GRT backup for a Unix machine started failling.

Nothing is changed with this machine or enviorment side (beside 2 hotfixes from symantec for BE),

I guess, it is just the attention seeking tendency of the BE, that cannot see me working on other Imp assignments.

 

V-79-57344-65304 - The Virtual Machine resource is not responding. Backup set canceled.
V-79-57344-65304 - The Virtual Machine resource is not responding. Backup set canceled.

 

Also BE remote agent service stops after that:

Faulting application beremote.exe, version 14.0.1798.0, faulting module ntdll.dll, version 5.2.3790.4937, fault address 0x0002a80f.

 

Thanks in Advance

Backup Exec 12.5 issue with HP Storageworks Ultrium 448 SAS

I need a solution

Hello,

I have a SBS 2008 server with HP Storageworks Ultrium 448 SAS, and Backup Exec 12.5. The issue is that when the backup job starts - it says queued and stays like that for ages. If I try inventory - says no media servers available. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the backup tape using Symantec drivers - same thing. Tried newest HP driver - same thing. Tried the driver suggested from Microsoft updates - same issue. Repairing the backup exec did not help. The only strange thing that I noticed is that after every install, the device shows in Backup exec that it is in use. I tested the device with HP storageworks and library tools - it is visible, and does not report any issues. 

What can be the problem with that device, and is it possible for some reason the Backup Exec to be broken ?

Ready; no media servers are available - BE 2010 R3 Server 2008 SP2 (x64)

Hi,

I’m having a problem with Backup Exec and not backing up any jobs at all the moment – the job status states on all jobs (disks and tape) ‘Ready; no media servers are available’. I am running BE 2010 R3 with all latest patches and updates on a Server 2008 SP2 (x64) box.

This is both Disk backups and tape backups – I have done the following: -

·         Ensured all updates are up to date via LiveUpdate

·         Restarted all BE services

·         Paused ALL devices, disable and re-enable

·         Uninstalled the drivers for the tape drive and disk, restarted the server (a couple of times), re-installed the drivers again

Done the above to no avail and still comes up with that message (Ready; no media server are available)

On the devices tab, I noticed that the media server states ‘Discovering Devices’. After I restart the services or server, all the devices are offline and I have to enable them manually but still states this message ‘Discovering Devices’. When I attempt to perform a job, then it comes up with that message in the job status and hangs there and no way I know of getting rid of it.

At the moment none of my backups jobs are performing. Any other things I can try?

Thanks.

Backing up 2 servers to one tape

I need a solution

I recently installed Backup Exec 2012 and I am trying to configure it to backup 2 servers to one tape.  I want to do full backups.  I can successfully backup each server individually but I'm missing something when I try to back both up to the same tape.  So here is how I have things set up:

I have a media set named "Full Backup" with overwrite protection set to 1 hour and append set to infinte-allow append.

I have 5 tapes associated with this set.

I setup a backup job for "Server1" to run 1st and overwrite media.

I then have a job for "Server2" set to run later and append to media.

Both jobs are configured to use the "Full Backup" media set.

The 1st job runs fine.  However, when the 2nd job begins, it ejects the tape and says "remove media and respond ok."

Do I have something setup incorrectly with the overwrite or append settings?  What am I missing?

Thanks in advance.

BE2010 R3 and robotic library ignoring named tapes

I need a solution

OK, so... we set up a robotic library on our Win 2k8/Be2010 R3 system, and all testing and backup schedules working fine.  However, we can't get barcode labels working for a number of reasons, so we're skipping that for now.  Inserted a bunch of new tapes, initialized, inventoried, etc.  I then applied Media Labels to five of the 8 tapes installed, and let the backup jobs run.  Fast forward Monday morning, and the backup jobs have completely skipped the named tapes in slots 1-5, and started using the tapes beginning in slot 6.  All are identified as "scratch media", so can someone enlighten me on why just applying a name to a tape PREVENTS it from being used (new tape, Scratch Media, at top of slot rotation).  Barcode rules are shut off; tapes have barcode labels on them, but BE isn't reading them (not that it should if barcode capability is shut off).  I'm at a loss here.

 

Thanks.

Password protected tapes.

I need a solution

Ok...next challenge.  I inserted an old tape full backup of my previous file server shares to inventory and catalog to test that I can indeed pull data from the old tapes and I got the following error "The password provided in the job properties does not match the password for this media."  We/I (inherited the old configuration) did not password protect the tapes unless it was automatcially applied by BEX10d when new tapes were added to the media set during preconfigured backup jobs ...configured by my predecessor.  I don't think so b/c i have worked with these tapes before to do restores and did not require to enter a password.  

I came across a users having the same error and they were referred to TECH194494.  Is the only work around?  If so, i'd need some clarification.  I don't understand in the solution how runnnig the commands from the BEMCLI circumvents the password prompt issue for the tape in BEX2012.  Can anyone explain the commands (eg. "enter password on the blank line" then "use the $pass variable in the catalog job"..get-bemedia B2D000031??).  "To catalog backup to disk media", B2D, does not seem to refer to Tape media or restore from tape media.

tnx....

BE2012 Duplicate to Tape stage not performing as desired

I need a solution

Hi there, here is another of the BE2012 strange behavior case (as i see it):

1) I have multiple servers/jobs with full backup configured daily evening having "keep data for - 1 week" & then a Duplicate to Tape Stage added with Source being "Most Recent Full backup" scheduled on the Last day of every Month (strange? yea..) after the full backup end time..

Now when the Duplicate to tape gets executed successfully i notice that it is taking not the Last Full backup but last 7 full backups (as keep data for 1 week is selected) which is consuming the storage on the tape device.. Can it be explained & solved for me???

2) Also some jobs are configured as Weekly Full backups and keeping data for 4 weeks. Duplicate to tape stage set with Source as "All Backups" scheduled time set after the end time of the weekly full job..

This gets executed and duplicates only the Last Full Weekly backup (and not All Backups).. Not as expected again..

 

Please let me know if this is a bug or am i doing something wrong?

Backup priority

Hi,

My scenario;

Server windows 2008 r2, Backup Exec 2012

I've created 4 backup schedule for each groups/servers.

1. Full yearly (not appendable) - last day of every year (31st December)

2. Full Monthly (retention 11 months) - last day of every month

3. Full Weekly (retention 2 weeks) - sunday

4. Differential Daily (retention 7 days) - monday to saturday

My problem;

however, I did not find any option as previous version where we can set the priority which job will override the lowest priority.

ie ; yearly job will fall on 31st december 2012 and day is monday which daily differential job will run too. How do I override the daily job since the full yearly is the priority.

 

Thanks in advance.

Tape Backup's are not overwriting.

I need a solution

Hi Guys,

Nedd your help on this.. I'm new to backup exec. We are taking backups for our servers to tape. We have set OPP as 4 days and backup runs every Tuesday. So if the backup ran today means, the tape is getting overwritable after 4 days which is expected. So on next tuesday when the backup ran again, it is getting the data appended to tape even though the tape is in Overwritable state. This is causing the tape to get full and backups are failing. Kindly help me on this.

 

Thanks & Regards,

TV.

I need a solution

we had backup exec 2010, ran the cleaning job to clean the tape drive once a month or when needed.  Never had an issue getting stuck.

installed 2012 and everytime the job runs, the tape gets stuck/does eject.

thought it was the cleaning tape, bought a new one and still sticks.

I'm able to run the job through the dell tape library directly, and it doesnt stick.

only gets stuck when ran from within backup exec 2012.

can someone please help me fix this. thank you.
