Holiday Schedule Stopping Backups in Backup Exec 12 ver 1364?
Each time there is a holiday, it seems it takes a week before I get a good backup again. This time, coincidentally, our backup went to requiring two tapes rather than one. I have cleaned up the server (or so I thought) so It would require only one tape. However, where our largest single tape before held 92,912,314,309 bytes, I can now only write 70-73,000,000,000 bytes before requiring a second tape. Additionally, the backup just seems to take longer to write, although that could be because I need to finish the backup during the day with users on.
There are a couple of hot fixes that will not install, and I don't know if that is part of the problem. They are 336064, 340028, and 340354.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I have had only one good backup since Memorial Day.

- Check your job log and look at the compression ratio. If as you said, the files are not changed then the compression ratio should remain the same.
