Hi all,
i started to look at my device properties in Backup Exec 12.5 SP1 and i noticed i currently have 18434090 soft write errors of which 10236911 since the last cleaning (i clean every week, but BE doesnt register this for some reason)
i have 33.3 TB written in total, 2,222 hours in use.
I read in a support article that Soft write errors are an recoverable errors, but might indicate future problems.
How can i investigate were these errors are comming from ?
The Hardware is a Dell PowerEdge 2900 with an TANDBERG TS400 Tape drive (LTO-2)
Server is bought in 2008 and started running BE in jan 2009. So just over a year in production as a backup server.
I use Software compression and Encryption.
I hope i gave enough info and you can help me.
Regards,
