Backup Exec 2014 - Deleting expired jobs on USB drives automatically?
I needed to recover a file today. I plugged in the USB drive from the backup job I needed. I check the storage tab and the drive is empty. I check the drive and there is nothing left on there but the BEData folder. I grab another drive, check it on my laptop first and see that it is full. I plug it into the media server....same thing....deletes all the jobs! I had a really old drive and it deleted everything....but the more current job. Retention was set for 2 weeks and all these jobs were more than 2 weeks old.
Is there a way to prevent BE2014 from deleting expired jobs when a USB drive is plugged in? Seems silly to delete jobs when I'm trying to use that drive for recovery!
