Hi Experts...

I am having a problem...

I have a server with a tape, and i have a job backing up my data to the tape.

That's ok, the backup starts but it doensn't finish... in others companies works perfectly... but this doesn't.

 

What happen? starts normally, going on... going on... The Byte Count stops.

Ps: The Byte Count looks complete. 50 GB and there isn't a Green circle with Queued.

To check what updates and version you have got please click on help-about --which would give your backup exec version with build like 4164 or 5204 let me know what is that and then click on install updates to let me know what updates you have got

 

Thanks

Hi

No you won't loose any job install R3 on top of existing version and it will upgrade to R3 so please upgrade first and then install Sp2 and other updates and update remote agent on your remote server

Hi

Thanks for the update and good to see all working fine ,but to ensure stability of your backup and restore it is good to be on latest version of backup exec which is BE 2010 R3 and R2 is an intermideate version so try to upgrade it to R3 and other updates using live updates and update your remote agent too ,plan it accordingle and you will see the difference

 

Thanks
