So we cannot use GRT?? I cant beleive that is the solution? Thats a big part of our backup and it worked before the updates?

If you read the article you can see that Symantec is investigating this problem, and they may be working on a hotfix.
You can contact Symatec support about the status of this issue.

Even if i dont have a support contract with them?

No, they cannot help you without support contract.
If it is a new purchase, the first year of support is included.
BTW: you can try to install BE2010R3, you can 'free' upgrade to this version, it uses the same license keys as BE2010.

How do i download the R3 free upgrade?
Let me know
Thanks.

Go to Fileconnect and enter your serial number (M.......)

Hmmm this is a bit of a problem. We purchase Symantec Backup Exec OEM from Dell and it comes with a license key, but we have never received the Certificate with the serial number on! So not sure how to get round this? The frustrating thing is calling symantec support and giving them the license key number they dont seem to be able to provide me with the serial!

You can get a trial license here:

After downloading and during install use your 'normal' license key so you have a licensed installation.
(I think you even don't have to provide the license key during installation).

Do i need to uninstall previous version or can i just install this over the top?
07-28-2011 02:39 AM
install over the existing version, this will keep all your settings etc...

Ok so R3 installed. Now the exchange is failing with a different error:
V-79-57344-937 - The Backup Exec Virtual File Filter driver cannot complete the operation because of an internal error. (Minor error code: 0.0)
There seems to be no information regarding this error anywhere!

1) Uninstall the Exchange licence
2) Restart the BE services
3) Install the Exchange licence
4) Try again.

Its small business edition, so there is no seperate exchange license.
07-29-2011 06:57 PM
... then try uninstalling the SBS licence.
