Hello, I have not seen this. If the green dot is there and the backup is successful, a DR file is created. So let's take a look. Under Configurations and setting - > Backup Exec Settings -> Simplified Disaster Recovery verify your paths. Put in an Alternate path if one's not there.
Check the job log for .dr file creation. It should tell you that a dr file was created in the job log. Check the Windows\system32 directory. If something happened to the dr path, then it might put them there. Make sure Backup Exec has rights to the folders you want the dr file in.
If you have both a successful backup with a dr file creation and another successful backup without the dr file for the same resource, please attach it.
Hello again
The path is the right one and BE has the rights to it and the alternate path.
In the job log there is no indication of creation of any DR file or update of one. There is no file in System32 or anywhere else.
This "error" happens to 50 % of our servers. But with no indications off any fault in the backup job
Is there any common thread between the servers where the DR file does not get created? For instance are those servers running the same Operating System / SP ? Or same version of the Backup Exec Remote Agent?
If a specific server does get a DR file created, does it always get one created ? Or does the issue move around ?
A screen shot of your selection screen might also be helpful.
The only common thread is that it is the same servers and it does not move around. After the re-installation of the of 2014 on another server it was still the same servers that have this problem.
When I load up the SDR media I can select the server to restore, but there is no point in time or backup sets hence the missing DR files.
Hello again. I did a test of my system and in the job log it states that the .dr file was updated. Can you attach a job log of a successful backup without the .dr file creation and a screen shot of the selection from that job.
I have attached the logs for a succesful server and an unsuccesful server and a screenshot of selection screen of the unsuccesful server.
