Tape change

Hallo

First, sorry for my bad english.

So, i have Veritas Backup Exec 9.1 for Windows. My OS is 2003 server.
In Veritas Backup Exec have two jobs, first run from Monday to Thursday and make diff backup. Second job run on friday and make full backup.
Problem is that every Monday i eject tape whit friday backup and put new blank tape. When i do this, next Friday cannot make a full backup, because when i run job, his job status come queued, and it span for a long time, while i cancel it.

How i can this problem solve?

  • Hello,

    As job status reamins as queued verify if any alerts are generated in the Alert tab.If so then repond to the pending alerts.

    -- verify the Overwirte protection and append period settings.

    -- You can refer the following technote.
    Device jobs remain in a "pending" or "Queued" state indefinitely and "scheduled" jobs do not run at their appropriate time.
