Let me be the next to say that the fix in Backup Exec 2012 SP2 for the updating catalogs is not working.
Live Update shows no updates available and Installed Updates shows "Service Pack 2"
I am backing up to Deduplicated Storage
Have uninstalled and pushed out all agents. The backup runs very quickly until it gets to the Updating Catalogs stage then runs for a few more hours. 1 hour backup to about 3 or 4 of catalogs. There is no way in the logs to determine how much time is spent doing catalogs, so you have to watch it do its thing. My backups start at around 3500KB/Min then go down to the hundreds or even below a hundred while it does the catalogs as this is an average.
Not running GRT is not an option as this is why we sell and recommend the product. One backup to do whole VM or granular. Not doing GRT would be like going back years when we used to do Full Mail store backups and "Brick Level" backups for Exchange, so please do not suggest. Non-GRT backups run fine.
I will escalate, but if your developer are sitting back thinking they fixed it, they have not.
The known issues link doesn't list anything under deduplication option filter and I'm not about to scroll though 67 Pages with no search function or ability to filter by Product version E.g. 2012 SP2. If nobody is using this (The me Too button) then the reason is probably due to the less than thought out UI.
