Hello,

Backup Exec for Small Business Servre License will be the BEST option as it include license to backup Exchange, SQL, Sharepoint which will SAVE a lot.

I assume that you have installed Backup Exec 12.0 in 60 days evaluation mode. After getting the keys simply add the BE SBS keys and everything will be up and running (No uninstall-reinstall required)

browsing the netwotk resources and expanding sbs take a long time.
the backup stop for a while with status - snapshut - why?

Are you browsing the Selection list in Backup Exec through Domains OR Favourates OR Windows Systems?


hope this helps..

hi dev

thanks for the reply

>Are you browsing the Selection list in Backup Exec through Domains
yes
all resources-> windows system - > server
the server resources open afetr 5 minutes

also the server appears now  with a yellow sign - what those it meen?

could it be firewall settings?
those backupexec have a utility that check ports from and to media server?

about licensing:
i need to check the coust to the sbs
yet for now i am using my licensed backup exec 12 window server
with a remote agent
and intend only to buy exhange agent license

thanks

Hello,

also the server appears now  with a yellow sign - what those it meen?
Yello Mark means that the server is not publishing to the Backup Exec Server.
1  : Go to the remote server-->start-->Program files-->Symantec Backup Exec-->Remote agent Utility.
2  : Click on the Publishing TAB and Check Enable Publishing and Add the Backup Exec Server using name OR the IP address...
3  : Restart the Remote agent service.

Hope this helps...

Hello,

Its very difficult to judge why it taking time.

Request you to enable debug logging:

To enable debug logging:
1. Click Start | Run and type REGEDIT to open the Windows registry editor
2. Browse the registry tree to the following registry key for the appropriate version of Backup Exec:
   For Backup Exec 10.x - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VERITAS\Backup Exec\\Engine\Logging
   For Backup Exec 11.x or higher - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SYMANTEC\Backup Exec for Windows Servers\Backup Exec\Engine\Logging
3. Double-click the CreateDebugLog registry value to open the Edit DWORD Value dialog box
4. Enter the value "1" and click OK to save the changes
5. Close the Windows registry editor to save the changes made.
6. Restart the Backup Exec Services and try to access the server.

Logs will be located in the following folder.
C:\Prog files\Symantec\Backup Exec\Logs

Please paste the entire debug logs



Note: The registry setting has to be changed to "0" after completing the debug to disable debugging.
