Renamed Resource still appears in Backup Job

Jason_Kaufman

We are running Backup Exec 9.1 on a Windows 2000 Server.
We recently renamed several of our servers. Ever since the changes were made, the renamed servers are backing up fine. However, one of the old server names still appear in the backup job. We are unable to remove it because the old server name does not appear in the selections list- it does however, appear in Resource order and Resource credentials for the job.
This results in a 'failed' backup job with the error 'a000fe29 - Authentication failed on connection to the server'.

I'm sure we can simply create a new job and the problem would obviously go away. However, I would like to avoid this if possible.

Any advice?

Thank you

When looking at the properties of the backup job, select the 'Selections' item and over on the right choose to view in text mode. You can delete the extraneous entries for the server there.

Thank you Jeff. Not sure why I didn't think to look there on my own. Thanks for posting a reply so quickly too!!
