Greetings All,
Running Backup Exec 12.5
I have found an issue that started happening this Monday morning where I can no longer run Inventory or Eject Jobs on my Quantum DLT-VS1 tape drives. I have the Symantec drivers installed on these drives and my 12.5 install of Backup Exec has been running flawlessly for 6 months. I did not make any system changes this past weekend. The only thing that happened this past weekend was my routine 2 jobs ran successfully.
When I try to perform an Eject operation, I click on the Job Monitor tab and can see the job running, and running, and running. This can go on for 5 hours if I let it. A cancel operation does not work. I have to reboot the server and eject the tapes by pressing the eject button on the drives. The Eject Jobs both show a status of "Queued" and the "pause" indicator shows on the jobs.
Similarly, the same happens when I try to perform an Inventory Job.
My routine nightly backup jobs all run sucessfully without issues.
Any ideas on this? I've rebooted the server twice since this began happening.
Thanks, Jack
