I checked the device manager, showed the hidden devices, and the scsi changer was with yellow exclamation mark (unknow publisher, unknown device) and was not able to start. So I did an experiment - disabled it and restarted the server. Everything seems fine now, I will monitor the backup for a few days.

Hello,<br />
<br />
I have a Windows 2003 server, with a HP Ultrium1 SCSI tape drive, and backup exec 10d. I know that it is too old, but I want to keep it running as long as possible. <br />
<br />
When I boot up the server or reboot it, I receive the following error:<br />
<br />
Event ID: 7026<br />
Source: Service Control Manager<br />
<br />
The following boot-start or system-start driver(s) failed to load: <br />
SCSIChanger<br />
<br />
How do I resovle this error ?<br />
<br />
Thank you,

Servers are computing devices that are similar to desktop computers in that they have the same basic components, but are significantly different in size, configuration and purpose. Servers are usually accessed over a network, and many run unattended, without a computer monitor, input device, audio hardware or USB interfaces. Many servers do not have a graphical user interface (GUI), and are configured and managed remotely. Servers typically include hardware redundancy such as dual power supplies, RAID disk systems, and ECC memory, along with extensive pre-boot memory testing and verification. Critical components might be hot swappable, and to guard against overheating, servers might have more powerful fans or use water cooling.

The term "Backup" means the methods and processes involved to copy computer data (system data as well as application data) to media other than the ones where the data originally live (disk, tape, optical, cloud). "Restore" in turn means the methods and processes involved in data recovery, i. e., bringing back copied computer data to their original location. Backup/Restore primarily serves as a means of protection against data loss, be it due to disaster, corruption or sabotage. It can also be used for recovering data from an earlier point in time and even for cloning machines or applications. There is a wide variety of backup/restore software available, from expensive commercial products to free or open source tools.
