Hi there,<br />
<br />
I agree with dovidmichel.. &nbsp;try initialising the arcserve database first (server admin -&gt; Database Engine -&gt; Operations -&gt; Initialise Database...)<br />
<br />
If this doens't work, then try to modify your job and make sure those files which has been deleted don't still appear to be selected in the backup job<br />

ARCSERV 11.1 error &quot;unable to add job to database&quot;

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.
