OFO error

Robin_Lindheime
Level 2
I have a Windows server 2003 box with Exchange 2003. I am copying to an external USB disk (because I could not get the backup tape to work without all kinds of errors)

I have not had a successful backup for months. I have swapped out every piece of hardware known to man and updated BIOS and all of the firmware to boot.

The errors I get have changed over time. This is what I now get. I am not sure if the issue is with Backup Exec of with the Volume Shodow Copy.


Any help would be extremely appreciated.

Hello,

it seems that you are using AOFO to backup Exchange.

Create 2 separate jobs for Exchange without AOFO and the local drives with AOFO.
