Final error: 0xe00084f8 - The network connection to the Backup Exec Remote Agent has been lost. Check for network errors. Final error category: Resource Errors

Hello people

am backing up a total of 900GB of data to tape.

when it backup's a total of 23GB it stops and gives the following error

Final error: 0xe00084f8 - The network connection to the Backup Exec Remote Agent has been lost. Check for network errors. Final error category: Resource Errors

how can i trouble shoot this?

  • Apparently this was a netwok issue.

    the cables connected to the switched were looped.

    Thanks

  • Tried all of the solutions on the TN

    Doesnt seem to solve the problem. Also the backup speed is very slow

  • Are you receiving this error on a backup of a particular remote server only ? If yes, does manually copying over 100GB (try with a single file & then try with multiple smaller files) work fine ?

    Any AV scans/maintenance tasks running at this time ?

     

  • Yes i am receiving this error on a particular server.

    there are no AV scan/maintenance

    when i started the backup last night. out of a total of 900GB, it backup'ed 471GB and the failed with the error message

    Final error: 0xe000fe30 - A communications failure has occurred

    At the moment i have selected 4GB of data out of the 900GB to backup, just to see if it will be successful

    Please how can u assist

  • Possibly the connection is timing out, debug logs will give a better picture as to what happens when the backup fails.

    Consider running network diagnostics as well to rule out any network issues.

  • Where are the deug logs on the backup exec server

    I also thought about that, i am also trying to see if there are any network issues

  • Debug logs are to be manually enabled and to be enabled on both BE and the remote server at the same time.

    It'll probably be easier to log a support case for doing so.

  • I think u might be right vjware about the connection timing out

    because i did a backup of $GB of data and it was successful

    Also a total of 471GB was data was backuped yesterday before it timed out

  • Apparently this was a netwok issue.

    the cables connected to the switched were looped.

    Thanks
