Hi.

i need your expert help.

for a few days back i started to have this error in backup exec.

before that, belated support maximum 3 hours, but is now taking 7 hours!,
that's too much. I've added more information to the backup job, the information
is the same.

ok, then i put the opcion "Cancel the backup job if not completes within 3 hours. "

excec backup now I send this message,
I guess it's for that configuration, but ... .
... . Why the backup task is taking many hours??? and how I can help?

 

Regars!

...I'd suggest rebooting the media server to see if this sorts the issue out. There are times where this works.

You can also check the job log and see which server/resource the backups are now taking the longest time on to concentrate your troubleshooting efforts on.

Thanks!

Hello suarez,

What version of Backup Exec are you using?  Please make sure all of the Live Updates have been run and the remote agents updated on the remote servers.

Also check and make sure that there isnt any maintanance running during the backup and that any virus scans are excluded from the Backup exec processes.

Hi,

      Is backups going to tape. If yes please check if firmware and drivers are updated. Reboot the tape drive once and try another backup.

Thanks
