We have a Windows 2003 Server runing Backup Exec 9.1 Rev. 4691
We are receiving the following error during backups:
Job ended: Friday, October 13, 2006 at 2:57:00 AM
Completed status: Failed
Final error: 0xa000fec9 - A failure occurred accessing the Writer metadata.
Final error category: Resource Errors
If we reboot the server, the backups will complete ok for a day or 2, but then start failing again.
Hotfix 833167 has already been applied, as has Windows 2003 Server SP1 and Exchange 2003 SP2. The server is regulary updated with critical updates.
Because the server does it's backups in the middle of the night, there's no one available to check the VSS Writers' status right after a failure, but when checking later that day, they all show "No Errors".
Other than rebuilding the server from scratch, what else can we do to alliviate this problem.
