BackupExec 2012 ver. 14.0 Rev. 1798 64-bit Hi, I am trying to create a backup that excludes files older than a year. When I select the drive marked for backup then add an exclude for 'Files not access in 365 days' it cancels out the backup select...

I am trying to test a disaster recovery of the BE server itself. Our current serer is in trial mode and only does B2D to a NAS location. There is effectively no attached storage to the 'Source' BE server. I am trying to get the DR BE server to invent...

Hmm, I see the Low Space Threshold you refer to. If the Deduplication storage folder runs out of space does the job cancel altogether though? I see a few problems with this method of single location dedupe with data stores that consistently grow. I a...

Thanks Craig. We'll see how this holds up from here on out.

CraigV, Missed your message. Anyway, when it worked I'd get the green-arrows of it being accessed. This morning I came in to find the tape incremental drive had been queued for 70hrs. Again, running an inventory to test accessibility shows no...
