...is the LEO installed...?

Yes... I added it through the Licence Assistant...

Did you try to restart all Backup Exec Services on the media server after adding the LEO licences?

Yes. I restarted them.

But the start and end times are the same then before.

Did I anything wrong?

Hi point_S,

you are talking about the start and end times of your backup jobs, right?

How often is the LEO listed under Help - About - License Information?

Thanks

Hi mage1,

yes, I talk about the start and end times of our backup jobs.

In the license Information tab the LEO is listed 3 times.

But on the licence sheet of symantec, there stand that 1 licence key is for 2 LEOs is that possible?

For the other 2 LEOs I got 2 sepperate licence keys.

Thanks for the help.

Hi point_S,

for my understanding you have 2 libraries with 2 drives each. so you would need only 3 LEOs. but it is possible that 1 license key stands for 2 LEOs, we have 1 licence key for 20 remote agents. so this should be okay.

Does BackupExec use all your drives? Could you check this in the job log please? Are your backup jobs configured to run on a single drive or on the whole library?

Thanks

Hi mage1,

I found the problem.

In the device-pool the 4th robotic unit was not entered.

So I think this problem is solved.

But can someone of you help me with the cluster function?

We want a secure backup for our company.

Hello,

I completely lost it. :D

Are we talking of 2 Tape Libraries each with 2 tape drives? And how many jobs are scheduled to run at the same time?

Have you already tried to go to the tab "devices" right click on the media server and pause it, wait a bit and then unpause it?

best regards

Dominik

For the cluster installation:

Create a cluster group which contains only a shared disk ressource. Then follow the cluster installation wizard.

Nochmal kurz in Deutsch erläutert:

Das ist gar nicht so spektakulär wie man denkt. Man installiert auf beiden Nodes Backup Exec. In der Clusterverwaltung sollte man eine Gruppe einrichten, welche eine gemeinsame Festplatten-Ressource beinhaltet, nicht mehr.

Wenn das gegeben ist, startet man von der Node, welche aktiv sein soll, Backup Exec und führt dort den Cluster-Wizard aus. (der ist wirklich selbsterklärend)

Der Wizard legt dann eigenständig die Backup Exec Clustergruppe an und nimmt sich die Festplatten-Ressource aus der vorher definierten Gruppe in seine hinzu.

Nun kann man noch die leere Gruppe der Festplatten-Ressource löschen und nach einem Schwenk kennt die Geräteansicht in BE auch die Geräte der passiven Node.
