0xa00084ca - The data being read from the media is inconsistent

[P__Witteman]

When I backup my W2K3 SBS servers with an external harddisk and backup the "Shadow Copy Components" in a full backup I get the following error:
In the Job Completion Status:
"Final error: 0xa00084ca - The data being read from the media is inconsistent"
In the Errors:
"Verify - Shadow?Copy?Components Shadow?Copy?ComponentsAn inconsistency was encountered on the storage media in Backup-to-Disk Device 1"
When I catalog the backupfiles afterwards I get errors that not all the files were good inventoried. In the restore environment I can't restore the Exchange Store and a part of Shadow Copy Components

Who knows more!!!

Hello,
- Is the Backupto disk Folder on the same drive?
- Try erasing the Media and then run a backup job.
- Try creating a new Backup to disk Folder and try backing up to that Folder.

Let us know if that helps you.

The server was crashed and I had to build a new domain because the backups on different disks were corrupt... ;-(
1 week work... Also a lot of data was lost (4 months)

So now I bought a brand new tapestreamer from Dell (Powervault 110 LTO2 external) and again Backup Exec 9.1 give again problems. In the bios everything is oke. But first BE didn't show the streamer at all in the device manager, although it was seen bij the device wizard.

I installed BE 9.1 again (complete clean install!) in now it sees the tapestreamer but it gives an error when I want to inventory or label tapes:error:
Inventory Drive 0001 -- The job failed with the following error: Invalid Physical Volume Library Argument.

The BEdiag gives the following data:
0004:0000:0006:0000 Device Name "\\.\Tape0"
Primary Inquiry "CERTANCEULTRIUM 2 1748"
Serial Number "CERTANCEULTRIUM 2 JK00VV6"
Device Flags SCSI, SN(TYPE 1)
Device State 3, Online

Device IDs 1002, {76D58839-8CA9-4089-8D52-835CCEC9D604}
Device Name "CERTANCE 1"
Device Type 0, ""
Device Features 0x00000000
Device Element 0, 0
What's wrong... I'm desperate and losing my trust in BE!
Help me
