Backup Exec Database Size
Hello I am having problems with my backup exec database BEDB_dat.mdf. The database keeps growing in size and reaching its 4GB cap. I am able to go into SQL manager and run commands:
use BEDB truncate TABLE BElog select Count(*) from BElog DBCC SHRINKDATABASE (BEDB,5)
From website: http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH201551
Once I run that query the database will shrink down to about 100MB. After about a week and a half it will be back up to 4GB. I checked event viewer and I am not seeing any failed database maintance errors until the database reached 4GB then I will start to see the error. Attached is a screen shot of the setting for the database maintance.
Backup exec 2012 SP3 currently backs up 18 servers, runs on Server 2008 R2 and I B2D and use no tape.
Hello, I hope evertone had a nice holiday weekend. I checked the size of the BEDB_dat.mdf and the size went from 1.9GB on Wednesday to 300 Megs today. I am thinking that SP3 was the fix, but why it took so long for the size to come down is a mistry to me.
