Backup exec 15 - problem with restore in CASO environment

Hi,

I have following deployment:

Physical server with disks that are configured as backup repository. Server hosts CASO.

VMware environment and one virtual machine with BE Media server installed.

On CASO i created deduplicate disk storage, and shared it with BE Media server.

Jobs are scheduled at CASO server to use BE Media server as backup server and use shared dedup disk storage hosted on same server CASO is installed. And everything works fine.

But when I try to restore something from CASO (try to select object to restore) it fails with error: Unable to connect to data source - connection with bemedia failed

If I try restore from BE Media Server, it works fine.

Is this some bug, or it is normal behavior of CASO installation I am not aware of?

Thanks.

Regards,

  • You should look at the Catalog modes between MBE and CAS server

      Hi Colin,

      It was in distributed mode. I changed it to replicated and it works now.

      Thanks!
