Backup Exec log files 38GB
We've had an issue with our server due to lack of free space. We've examined the contents of the drive and "C:\Program Files\Symantec\Backup Exec\Logs\" is taking up 38GB of space. Can you tell me why it would take up this much space please? More importantly how do i cap it at say 10GB? We are using Backup Exec 2010 R3 on a windows 2007 sbs server. All our backups are backup to disk folders on removable drives and we backup also backup exchange and SQL. Thanks, your help is appreciated ThanksSolved12KViews1like4CommentsBE 2012 and Data Domain w/ DDBoost
Background: So we have Backup Exec 2012 and two Data Domain DD620's. We have all the required licensing including the Data Domain DD Boost and replication licenses. I have installed the Open Storage Technology (OST) plugin 2.5.0.3 as suggested for the version of BE. Both DD boxes are visable and connected to my BE server. I have foud some documentation and a video that explains some of what I am looking for but not entirely and most of it is for BE2010. The BE 2012 documentation from DD is not up to date yet. I am trying to setup backups as my tape drive has had enough and is not working properly. Anyone I have talked to just says you backup to it, then I continue finding little things that need to be done. No verify, no precompression, some said no deduplication in the job, other said server side dedupe because DDBoost manages it with OST plugin. Too much information and not enough people knowing what to tell me. The DD weekend support guys don't know the software titles they just know the hardware. I need help now unfortunately... Question: What settings do I use for Backups? I have Active Directory, Exchange, SharePoint, and SQL agents.6.4KViews1like32CommentsFailed Final error: 0xe00084bd - The system cannot find the path specified - unable to restore file or directory.

Hi I'm back. After small issue to upgrade to backup exec 2012 sp1a, I have a very strange error. If I make a full backup of my virtual servers (CSV cluster), the backup to disk works just fine.

Recently I upgrade BackExec 2010 to 2012, updated remote agents etc... and I created all "new" jobs and started from scratch.

Hi All, I've just taken over a backup exec 2012 server and my main issue at the moment is that the person that set up the SQL backup, just did it as a file backup only - and had de-selected the MS SQL Server Instances. I've tried adding them to the backup, but the windows logon account credentials that I am using fail in the test credentials screen I can log in to the SQL server using the same credentials, and the user has the server roles of serveradmin and sysadmin assigned to them. What am I missing?4.4KViews1like5CommentsBest solution to back up Citrix Xen Server
Hello, I am wondering what the best solution would be for the following: I have on Citrix Xen Server host that has 7 virtual machines on it. I am currently using PHD Virtual to back this up to a NAS. I am looking to move to different software for the backups. One of the virtual machines is running SQL and one is running AD and DNS. There is also one physical server that has AD, DNS, and DHCP on it that i would also like to back up in the same solution. What i was curious about is what is the best way to back all of this up? Is it Back Up Exec or System Restore? Or would neither work? I am looking for something that will back up to the existng NAS and allow for item level restores as well as fast restores of full VM's if ever needed. Second question is, assuming one of the two products will work is it best practice to install it on its own server or could it be installed on teh physical that is existing with AD, DNS and DHCP? I am assuming its own server and that is what i would shoot for, but for the sake of saving money i like to know my options. Thank you for your assistance.Solved3.5KViews0likes4CommentsThe configuration of the AdminConnection\TCP protocol in the SQL instance BKUPEXEC is not valid.

I do not know why if it is a common issue that Symantec does not have a TechArticle that explains how to fix this issue (If it really is an issue).
