No Jobs Exist after LiveUpdate Run
So per CR, I ran LiveUpdate on our Symantec Backup Exec 15 (version 14.2) server. The LiveUpdate process ran and errored out saying that the updates were downloaded, but failed to install. So I thought that since they didn't install, nothing would be updated, right?
I attempted to start the Backup Exec services and found they wouldn't stay running. They would start successfully, and then stop automatically shortly thereafter. So I proceeded to reboot the server.
After the server was online, I opened Backup Exec and was presented with a pop-up outlining the updates that were installed to the software which was curious since LiveUpdate told me the files were decompressed, but not installed. After closing the pop-up, I panicked a bit noticing that all of the backup jobs were gone. The history was still there, but no jobs.
Therefore, I ran the beutility to see if I could fix what looked to be a database issue. The beutility process for "Recover Database" completed successfully. However, the jobs didn't re-appear.
From there, I found that a backup of the database was taken at 4:03 AM, and proceeded to run beutility again, but this time dropping the database, and restoring it from the 4:03 AM one. The process completed successfully, but no jobs re-appeared.
From there, I knew what jobs should be there, so proceeded to re-create them from history. After setting up the job, I clicked OK to complete the job setup, and was given the attached screenshot (bue_error.png).
In checking Google, I didn't see any information to this error. I'm assuming the jobs are still around somewhere, but not showing due to this error.
I'm working on getting support involved, but thought posting something here may help as well.
Any assistance on this issue is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
EDIT:
So the good news is that the jobs are still there. I had a job kick off for our domain controller and it completed successfully twice. So I know the jobs are there and working, but I just can't see them. The Jobs pane currently shows 0 items and the message "No jobs exist" is there.
ive Update is no longer supported in BE products as of May 2, 2018.
When you ran Live Update there are two "messages" that should have shown up in the diaglog box about End of Symantec Live Update support and new Veritas Update in newer product versions. There should not have been any hotfixes to install as they are not in the Live Update Inventory.

See if this makes a difference in the jobs showing up.
