Hi,
Until recently I have had nothing but successful backups from our VM environment through BE2012, however on monday all but one of my virtual backup jobs failed with the same error;
Backup- Backupserver
Insufficient memory available.
I ran the job again during the day using SGmon to capture debug info and have the following output;
BENGINE: [10/30/12 15:24:36] [8324] 2012-10-30T15:24:29.678 [loops]
