I'm looking for any and all information on installing BUExec 12.5 on a virtual Windows 2008 x64 system, that has MS SQL 2005 installed. Best practices?

Hardware problems force us to reinstall v10.0.5520, which uses an instance of SQL2K on another network system. How can I reinstall, yet retain all jobs, catalogs, data, etc., as well as NOT overwrite the existing BEDB database on my SQL2K system? I s...

Hello All . . . I have BU Exec v10.0 Rev 5520 on a Windows Server 2003 Standard Ed. w/SP1. According to the Admin Guide, it installed with Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine (MSDE 2000) SP3a. On this same server, I need to install some unrelate...

In order to retain jobs, catalogues, and preferences, can I upgrade from BU Exec 10 to 11d—USING ONLY AN EVAL COPY—then upgrade from 11d to 12 and apply newly purchased licenses?Thanks,Bill

I created a new BU job, using labeled media in a newly-created Media Set. The Media Set was configured with an Overwrite protection period of 10 days, and an Append period of None/Infinite - Allow Append. As I understand the process, the overwrite pr...

Kinda figured that's how it would go. However, I have an open license for 12.5. If it's supported, my Director will have me install, and upgrade to 2010 next year. If 2010 is the only option, we'll upgrade of course. Now, I hope my tape drive will wo...

Here's what I have. I have the physical, media server with BUExec v10d, and a 10 slot auto-lib with a single drive. Am I able to capture the 64bit virtual server with this older solution? And thanks again for your feedback.

Can I use a 32 bit physical media server (Windows 2003), then install an agent on the 64bit Hyper-V virtualized Windows 2008 server?

William_Bruce · 07-15-2011

Yes, that all makes sense. We have not re-installed BUExec yet. We're still working with the server in a degraded state, trying to salvage. I'll delete the BEDB from the existing SQL instance, then use the BEUtil to restore the most recent BAK file t...

I printed article TECH49757. With my current installation, the BEutility displays no Media Servers. Perhaps because I've never used the utility? Hopefully, everything will make sense during the install. Will I be prompted for SQL options, i.e., optio...
