I am testing Domino backup, and I want to exclude *.ft folders which are in d:\lotus\domino\data\mail
howto exclude all folder in the partition which have .ft in end?
Example:
d:\lotus\domino\data\mail\abc.ft
d:\lotus\domino\data\mail\123.ft
How can I create an EXACT duplicate copy of a Tape (on another Tape) ?
I am using HP 1/8 g2 autoloader LTO5 with Backup Exec 2014.
I cannot see any such option in the application and I have never done this before.
Also there are no KB articles that suggest how to do this.
Any help would be appreciated!
I have Backup Exec 2012 ver 14 rev. 1798 running on Windows Server 2003 R2 32 bit, backing up remote server data to a 1 TB eSATA external hard drive. The backup jobs take a few hours while the verify jobs take 8 to 10 hours to complete. Why is that? I have the verify jobs runnig as a separate job after the backup job completes. I read that separating the verify job from the backup job can improve performance but I haven't noticed a performance increase since separating the jobs. Anway, my question is what does the verify job do? I've read that the job confirms the backed up data can be read but doesn't confirm whether the data is good or corrupt data. However, my Google-fu hasn't found the answer to *what* data is accessed by the verify job. Is the verify job running against the data on the Backup Exec backup drive or is is running against the data drive on the remote server? I ask this because the verify jobs take so long to complete. The verify job for our file server, for example, takes on average 10 hours so it is running until noon or 1pm during the working day. Is the verify job running against the file server's hard drive? If so, I want to stop this veriy job from running during production hours so the users are getting the best performance out of the file server. However, if the verify job is running against the backup drive then I see no harm in it running during production hours.
Thoughts?
Thanks community!
So the hotfixes go on about installing the latest ralus, but (as is the symantec way) dont refer to where they are.(I'm talking about the latest ones, not the ones on the installation DVD). Seaching "ralus update" produces a first page full of hits dating between 2004 and 2008.
Meanwhile a group of symantec employees sit around a table uttley puzzled as to why symantecs reputation is so poor.

We have a HP server running ESX5.5.0 update 1. It currently hosts 6 vm's, all windows based.
We want to backup these 6 machines to our D2D device, then to tape.
Without creating an individual job for each of these vm's, is there a way that Backup Exec 2012 can simply access the datastore, and through one job, archive these 6 vm's? I know that it isnt a huge task to create 6 jobs, however as this number grows, it would obviously be better to have one job backing up the entire contents of the datastore.
Being a relatively new user to BE any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hello,
Nice to see the Job Monitor and multi-server backups back in BE2014. We rolled back to BE2010 rather than struggle with BE2012.
I have installed a demo of BE2014 but am really missing Policies and Selection Lists.
Are those included in BE2014 or will they be soon? We found policies and Selection lists a great fast way to manage our servers.
We have about 25 that we are backing up with BE.

My server have Exchange mailbox1 and mailbox2 and control via DAG mode . I use BE 2014 backup DAG and try to restore mailbox but have a error while restore job.
My step .
I create database on exchange server and then create mailbox for it.backup . I run backup job of DAG. After run success i delete mailbox of it.backup and try to restore job.
Job ended: Tuesday, July 15, 2014 at 1:10:36 PM
Completed status: Failed
Final error: 0xe00002fc - Cannot restore one or more mailboxes. The database that the mailboxes reside in is dismounted or is not accessible. Ensure that the server is available and that the database is mounted, and then run the job again.
Final error category: Resource Errors
For additional information regarding this error refer to link V-79-57344-764
Restore- \\TEST-DAG1.test.in.th\Microsoft Information Store\_TEST ESW-EXCHMB01V-79-57344-764 - Unable to restore any content for it.backup [79e36c0d477642a39f516e3efbc81b17-it.backup] because the Microsoft Exchange database that hosts that mailbox is offline or the mailbox doesn't exist.
I'm not sure, Why i cannot select cerdentail of the job ? Before i use BE2013 can select and choose user authentication of the job.
The Backup Exec SQL Agent was not used to create the last full, differential, or log backup of this database. You must use the SQL Agent to run a full backup before you can run a differential backup or transaction log backup.
Am getting this error. I have seen many articles about this here. I need to know whether backup exec wil stop showing this only if the SQL's default backup is stopped totally? wont it work if the job are scheduled in a way that these backups doesn't coincide at the same time?
Please advice!
Hello,
Currently we have BE 2012 installed in windows 2008 , we are planning to install 2014 in windows 2012
Can we install BE 2014 fresh and copy the catalogue from BE 2012 , will the backup/restore works ?
or
Just upgrade 2012 to 2014 on windows 2008 and install BE 2014 on windows and move it ?
I believe Be 2014 support 2012 Windows agent does it require reboot when upgrading the agent to 2014 ?
Please help...

Hi Al,
We have recently upgraded our BE2010 R3 to BE 2014 and so far we are verry happy with it! :D
But Today I had to copy one of our SQL database Production environment to the acceptation environment. When I want to restore a SQL database with redirection, the restore wizard crash....
The error message is:
An error with the Backup Exec administration console has occurred. The administration console will close when you click OK. To restart the console, click the Backup Exec icon or click Start > All Programs > Symantec Backup Exec.

My question is:
-is there an option to turn the wizard off?
-could someone check if this works fine in your environment??
Redirection with file servers works fine.
PS. I have already created a case
Because I need to mimic what customers in the field are using, I need to keep a VM server-2000 box running.
On that box I'm backing up successfully:
1) C:\ drive
2) D:\ Drive
3) The Sql instance on it
4) Utility partition
Not backing up successfully:
5) SystemState
For the last couple of weeks, everything has backed up successfully except the ststemstate. I've rebooted the server, looked at services, HD space, looked at logs. This used to work, I cannot ID any changers that would cause the SS not to back up.
Below are my error messages:
Completed status: Failed
Final error: 0xe000847c - An error occurred retrieving System State files.
The System State file could not be backed up.
Final error category: Resource Errors
V-79-57344-33916 - An error occurred retrieving System State files.
I'm stuck having to backup this server until the software we sell is no longer supported for our customers.
Any thoughts anyone?
Thank you
hi
we recently attched new backup library in our company , the library is HP MSL 4048 with media tapes LTO6
now , we use backup exec 2010 r3 sp4 but if you look at the media details it shows only 2.4 tb total
and if you look at media types of each tape (we have 4 inside the library there is no LTO6 media details
what i need to do and how to recognize LTO6 media tapes in the backup exec
thanks

Hi all,
This post is related to this original discussion
https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/forums/err....
We have a hyper-v host (call it server1) with backup exec 2010 installed. One of the jobs backs up VM's on another phsical hyper-v host (server2).
Our backup of the VM's on server2 is failing with the error "e000e020 - The job was scheduled to run, but the availability window closed before the job could start. There may not have been any destination devices available during the window, or the job may have been submitted to run when the window was closed."
Now I know about the availability window adjustment, but the thing I notice is that after this type of error occurs, if I try and connect to the remote host or test the credentials to connect it just hangs. Last night I reregsitered the writers and rebooted the server2 to resolve this issue. After I did that, I tested the credentials to make sure I could connect to the remote host and it succeeded and passed. So I let the backup run last night and sure enough it failed again with the same e000e020 error.
I dont think this is a problem with the schedule window. Whats happening is the attempt to connect to the remote host server2 is failing. The backup gets stuck in the snapshot processing and never stops. After I did the reboot the credentials check passed but for soem reason when the backup started it got hung up in the snapshot processing and just hung there until it went beyond the availability window.
I did notice these errors on server2. Is this a credentials issue that the Administrator account used to connect is being denied?
I have had an ongoing issue with my Backup Exec 2010 R3 and my NetApp SAN CIFS. I believe, but am not certain, that it was coincident with the upgrading of the NetApp controller firmware. All of a sudden, I could not restore any backed up NDMP files! The backups were good, but I kept getting restore errors. After going round and round with Symantec and NetApp support, I was able to figure out myself a workaround: I could restore directories, but not individual files. Which worked fine until I had to restore a 20Mb Word doc that was in a 150GB directory! So I'm back hoping that in the interim, something has been found or some new eyes might see this and have a clue.
Here is the error I receive:
Completed status: Failed Final error: 0xe000130a - The NDMP server returned a restore error. See the NDMP Log for more information. Final error category: Resource Errors For additional information regarding this error refer to link V-79-57344-4874

Instead of writing the files, it creates directories with the files names! You can see that the real crux is the Path Could Not Be Created in the NDMP log, right after the "path" whcih includes the filename with the curious /: appended. Why would Backup Exec try to create a directory instead of restoring the file?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
I'm creating the SDR iso for the first time on my BE2104 media server. The install wizard requires ADK to be installed. As it's a large download, I downloaded it manually from the MS website and installed OK. When I run the SDR wizard it tells me that I require the ADK to be installed, after I click on Next I get a pop up saying that a newer version of the kit is already installed. After I click on OK on the pop up I'm returned to the ADK install page of the SDR wizard telling me I need the ADK and to click next, so I end up in a loop.
How can I progress the SDR setup if I've manually installed the ADK?
Thanks,
Has anyone experience the same as me regarding the lack of support during Sydney Australia moring session for Backup Exec 2014? I tried to call Symantec again this morning at 9:06am a case that has been drag on for a whiles but the Symantec call system keep drop me off the call when the services desk tried to transfer me to U.S. support team. I got drop off 4 times and finally the services desk transfer me to a duty manager and ask me to wait for another hours for India team to come online as US team unwilling to take on call as they are about to finish of their day in an hour. He also advise if I spoke to them the maximum is 1 hour support time. I have even worst experience on weekend support but don't worth to mention in here. I have no one I can escalate this issues and would like some feedback from Australia and New zeland customer if they have experience the same issues?
Hello,
I've read a lot of post here but didn't find solution. I'm using Backup Exec 2012 SP 4 to backup file server. Both servers are Windows 2008 R2 x64. The backup is full to disk ( 1 per week ) and after that duplicate to tape. The other days of the week is differential.
The speed of the full backup is 152 MB/min
The speed of the differential is 1200 MB/min
What could be the reason for the slow speed on the full backup. Is there a way to improve it. The servers are connected on 1 Gbps. The connections is OK. If I try to copy files between the servers the speed is OK.
Hi there,
I am using Symantec Backup server
Actual backup size of source server is 1.5GB
and taken backup size of destination symantec backup server is 6.5GB
Can anyone tell me why this happening
