I am using Backup Exec 12D to backup Enterprise Vault 8.0. I am having a nagging failure issue and would like to ask for help in resolving it. First the groundwork:
Backup Exec server is running 12D version revision 1364 service pack 3
Database server is MS SQL 2005 Sp1
Enterprise Vault is version 8.0 SP1
I have configured my backup job as detailed in:
https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/sites/default/files/ev8%20%20and%20bew%2012.5.pdf
My backups are fine except for one error that generates a failure message. That failure message is:
"Unable to attach to ."
"Unable to attach to a resource. Make sure that all selected resources exist and are online, and then try again."
I do not understand what the . stands for in this error. The log does not detail what resource it is trying to attach to. To add more confusion the job process all of the components that it is supposed to. The EV Directory, the vault stores, and the monitoring database backup just fine. Anyone else have this problem or have any idea what the . means? Or is this backup exec's way of giving a windows "I don't know what went wrong but something did" message?
I realize the document above is for version 12.5 agents, however, I am hoping the configuration information would be the same for version 12. If it isn't I understand. I just would like to understand why.
