Good Morning,
I have two remote media servers that are not running backups.
When I look at the two servers, I see that none of the backup exec services are started.
When I attempt to start the serivces, I receive an error:
Error 1068: The dependency server or group failed to start.
Any assistance with this would be very helpful.
I have already rebooted the server with no change.

Any errors in the windows event viewer? What are the event codes?
Thanks.

After I run this fix, will I need to reboot the server to see if the services start back up or should I just be able to start the services?

On the problem media servers, make sure that the service for the BEDB instance is started before trying to start the BE services.
