hello,
I am sadly writing here because of an issue we are having with veritas backup Exec ver. 10.0. So far whats happening, everything has been installed already, and veritas of course successfully recognizes that we have 2 tape drives, we are using IBM tape drives, veritas also recognizes our network layout and servers, so we already successfully made jobs to back up each server each week with a full and thoughout the week differential and incremental. The problem started 2 weeks ago, when for some reason, out of no where, looking under job monitor in the top tab section where it says "current jobs - 33 items" meaning 33 jobs assigned or made, within current job list, right before it or before it starts the first backup for the week whether its incremental, differential or full, it says under job status, READy; NO IDLE DEVICES ARE AVALIABLE. however when I look at our devices under the tab "DEVICES" it shows our 2 tape drives under all devies including our servers as folders, but the tape drives shows as tape icons. so it recognizes it, but it shows that error. what can we do to fix this? i tried restarting the server, tried going into job monitor, then top menu click on tools then stop all jobs, and restarted them, but nothing, please help. thank you
