Schedule tape backup runs forever..
If I do a manual backup using the same kind of format , It completes with some active alerts..
No such pop ups with the scheduled job..

You may have a corrupt job def.

If you do a "Run Now" on the job does it not eject?

Try creating a new job from scratch

Hello,

- Please schedule the backup on a backup-to-disk folder and verify the results.
- Create a new selection list and verify on tape as well as backup-to-disk.
- Also refer the following technote.
Title:
How to configure Backup Exec to automatically respond to media alerts, including when a backup hangs at 99%, until the user responds to a tape eject prompt
http://support.veritas.com/docs/192055

- Upgrade the firmware and install the latest drivers.
VERITAS Backup Exec (tm) 9.1 - Device Driver Installer (20050115) - Includes Tape Driver Release (20041231) and Robotic Library Release (45) (Intel Only)
