Using Backup Exec Version 10-1 Rev 5629
I am trying to Backup-to-Disk using a new Iomega Home Network 500gb hard drive. I have the drive configured via ethernet and can see it fine on my network, access it, create files, etc.
I created a Backup-to-Disk folder pointing to \\iomegadevice\iomegafolder. When I try and run a small one-file backup as a test three files are created:
@@@@@@@@.bkf
changer.cfg
folder.cfg
Then the job shows 'Active' with a status of 'Queued' and just sits there. I also tried mapping the location to a drive letter and using that but the same thing happens.
To make sure the Backup-to-Disk stuff is working ok, I created a shared folder on my local desktop and created another Backup-to-Disk folder pointing there and the same job works fine.
The Iomega drive uses SMB...not sure if that is the problem?
Many thanks!
