The data being read from the media is inconsistent.

An inconsistency was encountered on the storage media in Pubserver. V-79-57344-33994 - The data being read from the media is inconsistent.

The tech note related to this error says "The error occurs when Backup Exec is reading a tape prior to backup and encounters End of Data unexpectedly. Various things can cause such an error: losing power to the tape drive or server, a system or engine service crash, or a tape drive failure."

Strange that the backup that gets this error is only backing up to a hard disk, the server did not loose power or crash and there is no tape drive even connected to this server (windows server 2003) backup exec is actually running on the same server that is being backed up!

any suggestions??

Hello,

Perform the following steps and verify the results.
1. Reboot the server
2. Create a new B2D and fire a job on this new B2D

- Is B2D on the same server as well or on the network?
