The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Backup Exec job monitor says backup job "Recovered"  included log file in question.

Tags: Veritas, backup exec, 10.0
I have a new installation of Backup Exec 10.0 on a Win2K server.  I think the weekly backup job is completing, but the Job Monitor description says "Recovered" instead of "Completed"  I am including the backup log for this job.  All of the other weekly logs look exactly the same.

Every time that I look at the services running on the server, the service that says "Backup Exec Job Engine" is not running.  I can start it manually though.  The other thing I have noticed is the service says the end of the service line log on description it says "BCM/myname.  All of the other services say "Local System" for the log on info.  
I sure would appreciate the help.  I have been trying to get this backup installation going for over a month.  I think I'm making some progress but need to get it working properly.  Thanks!

known bug w/ BE 10.  below is link to Hotfix...

03.04.2008 at 11:22AM PST, ID: 21044122
I am using Backup Exec 10.0  The hotfix says use for 10.1  Is it okay to use for my version 10.0?
Thanks for the quick reply.
 
03.04.2008 at 11:31AM PST, ID: 21044214
you'll probably want to go to 10d first to be safe.  take your time with this & be ready to reboot the backup server & anything using remote agents...

installation file link

Okay, I'm downloading the install file now, but wont be able to run the upgrade until tomorrow.  Are you saying  to install the hotfix patch then, or do you guess the upgrade to 10d will fix my problem alone?  I used 10d at my old job and knew it worked pretty well without many problems.  I did not do the initial install though.  I will keep you posted on how the upgrade went.  Thanks again.
 
03.04.2008 at 12:50PM PST, ID: 21044981
I would do the upgrade first for sure.  Then I would run Live Update from the Backup Exec interface.  Install any updates it tells you to.  If the error is still there, apply the patch.  If not, I would leave it be.  
 
03.04.2008 at 01:57PM PST, ID: 21045549
Ok I will let you know how the update goes.  I am scheduled to go in tomorrow am.  Thanks for the advice.
 
03.04.2008 at 01:58PM PST, ID: 21045561
good luck.
 
03.05.2008 at 08:10AM PST, ID: 21051554
I am wondering what to put for the Backup Exec Services logon account.  Do I use my own account (admin priveleges) or do I type in BESA in the box for username and create an account in active directory?  I am almost ready to do the update.  Thanks.
 
03.05.2008 at 08:42AM PST, ID: 21051872
I've seen it done both ways.  You can create the backup services account with Admin privelages or you can use the domain administrator account.  I've seen more consistent behavior with the DOMAIN\Administrator account but that's just in my own personal experience.
 
03.05.2008 at 08:50AM PST, ID: 21051952
Okay if that is the case then I will have to wait until I can get the domain/admin password from the head honcho.  He is out of the country right now and won't be back until next week.  My admin account does not do all that his does, even though I am supposed to have admin privaleges.  It may have been my problem all along since the backup service was using my account.  Like I posted earlier in the thread, the services said logged on as BCM/myname instead of BESA or ADMIN.  
 
03.09.2008 at 04:04PM PDT, ID: 21083071
Will retry the update Monday or Tuesday of this week.
 
03.11.2008 at 11:59AM PDT, ID: 21098865
I did the update today and have the normal weekly backup schedule paused, then went into the job properties and choose to run the job tonight.  I will see tomorrow if it runs.  I could not find the option for "Live Update from within the Backup Exec interface.  I will keep looking, but if you know how to get to it, please let me know.   I will report back what the job did tomorrow.  Thanks again for all your help.  I did remember to reboot the server that BE is installed on and confimed that all of the settings that I had previously in BE were still there.  I had no errors during the update process to BE 10d
 
03.11.2008 at 12:03PM PDT, ID: 21098902
It should be here...
 
03.11.2008 at 06:13PM PDT, ID: 21102189
Okay, I'll look tomorrow when I check the job status.  If it didn't complete, then I'll run the live update and then try the backup tomorrow evening.  If there are still errors, I'll apply the patch you told me abount.  Thank you again, glad you are still with me, sorry it is taking so long.  The head honcho got back from Honduras today.  He gave me the domain admin password.  
 
03.13.2008 at 05:29PM PDT, ID: 21122144
I ran the live update and downloaded the recommended updates.  The backup, set for last night did not kick off.  I looked at the job staus this morning and it said "Waiting for Media" even though a tape was in the drive.  I pulled that tape out and put another one in and the job started as soon as the tape was inserted into the drive.  I didn't want to back up then, so I cancelled the job and rescheduled it for tomight.  I'll look in the morning to see if it completed.  I double checked both tapes properties and they both said "Overwritable"  The tape graphic showed that the tapes were full and there was no unused protion on the tape.  I'm thinking that is normal, it showing that the entire tape is formatted?
 
03.14.2008 at 02:20PM PDT, ID: 21129670
I checked the backup this morning and had the same message to put a tape in.  Then I checked and the backup job said 10GB backed up!  The reason for the message was the backup job was too large for one tape.  The head honcho said that he figured it was maybe only 3 or 4 gigs.  I added up all of the folder and came up with nearly 20gigs of data...  Put another tape in and the backup finished with no problems.  Now they think they maybe need a little house cleaning on the server or they will have to purchase a larger tape drive.  Thanks for your patience, the upgrade did the trick and if you don't post back, I will award the question to you with nothing but excellent ratings!
 
03.14.2008 at 02:30PM PDT, ID: 21129747
i'm glad it worked out for you.  I would definitely recommend looking at the house cleaning.  you'd be surprised how much old data is out there.  If that doesn't do it, I have a 35/70GB 15 cartridge DLT Library w/Dual Tape drives we'll sell to you.  :-)
 
03.15.2008 at 06:10PM PDT, ID: 21135166
thanks again.
