Hi, I am using BEW10d with an SQL agent. I am using SQL 2005 Standard edition. The SQL Server is remote. I installed the SQL agent locally and remotely and I can see the local drives on the remote PC when I create a new backup job however when I attempt to expand the SQL Server I get an error:

"An error has ocured while attempting to browse the content of Servername. A network connection to the Server could not be established"

Any ideas?

Hi,

Is it a clustered SQL?

Please install the following hotfix:

10.1.5629 Hotfix 6 - SQL 2005 (Yukon) support for Backup Exec 10d

Hi, They are non clustered and the Hotfix has not resolved the issue.
