Library Expansion Option-Lizenzverletzung

Hi,

my Backup Exec 2012 Media Server works well for about 2 years with 2 connected Tape Librarys (Qauntum Superloader & HP MSL), each with only one tape drive!

Since one week I get every hour an error:

"(Server: "XYZ") Library Expansion Option-Lizenzverletzung. Dieser Server ist zur Unterstützung von 0 Medienlaufwerke in Wechslern lizenziert. Die Anzahl an momentan verwendeten Medienlaufwerken übersteigt jedoch diese Lizenz. Sie müssen zusätzliche Lizenzen für Library Expansion Option erwerben oder 1 Medienlaufwerk deaktivieren. In der Produktdokumentation finden Sie weitere Informationen."

Can anybody help? Symantec Knowledge Base was not helpful.

    There are some other users who complained about this same problem. I would suggest the you open a formal support case for Symantec to take a look at this problem

    Hi pkh,

    thanks for your comment. Unfortunately, my customer has no maintenance contract with Symantec. So I can't open a support case.

    All my other Backup Exec-Customers have no problems.

    From 10 Dec onwards, the second library is showing as disabled. Is that the case ?

    Hi VJware,

    yes that is correct. The second library is currently not used (it is an older Quantum Superloader 3), so i disabled it.

    Hi VJware,

    I will try this, but (unfortunately...) has my customer company holidays until January, the 2nd. I'll contact you again.

     

    Thank You
