Open up BEUtility.exe and run a repair. Right-click your server's name and choose the repair option.

Thanks!

BEDB is Backup Exec Database, CraigV has asked you to repair BEDB which may fix your

issue. So open BEutility->right click on the media server and select Repair database.

BEDB is locted at X:\Program Files\Symantec\Backup Exec\Data\

Repair of BEDB will not cause any problem. You may make a copy of the Data

folder before repairing database.

You need to repair BEDB when none of your backups or restore jobs are running.
