Cannot mount the windows PE image (SDR creation)
I'm trying to create a new simplified disaster recovery (SDR) disk (on 2 machines, actually). I get the error, "cannot mount the windows PE image. You may have insufficient privileges for the storage location C:\Users\<account>\AppData\Local\Temp\SDRStaging" I'm even running Backup Exec logged in as the service account we use for Backup Exec, and I'm running BE as an admin. Thoughts? Server 1: BE Version 16.0, 1142.1659, Windows Server 2016 Server 2: BE Version 20.6, 1188.2718, Windows Server 201625Views0likes2CommentsUpdating BE to ver 24-Firewall white list
Our internal network has blocked all internet except through a whitelist. I need a listing of what sites to open up so the internal BE server can "reach" the update server at Veritas and update itself. Support has been less than useful. (that's very kind) They keep giving me ports to open for backup jobs but that's LOL not what I"m doing. I just need the internel BE server to get to the BE Cloud device/server so I can update the program. Does anyone have any idea what I whitelist. Firewall traces are rather cumbersome and I've found no KB articles of any use. The product works fine I just NEED to update it.7Views0likes0CommentsProblem - Ready; Backup Exec server not available
Hello there, I am duplicating old L6 tapes to L8 tapes for a few weeks without any issues. Few days ago I've prepared new duplication job and it's holding on status "Ready; Backup Exec server not available". I don't know what happened. I tried to re inventory tape, re catalog tape, restarting server - nothing help. I can see that some backup sets can be duplicated and some (most) showing mentioned error. I' am also adding screenshot. I hope someone met this problem and could help. Greetings, Damian114Views0likes9CommentsHow do I delete IMG folders and contents?
It appears that the creation of an infinite number (up to the point of "drive full")of IMG folders (when using B2D to back up Exchange Server) is a known issue. Unfortunately, I have learned this only after creating 23 IMG folders of approximately 11 GB each. I cannot find a method within Backup Exec for deleting these IMG folders and when I attempt a manual deletion using Windows Explorer I get the error message "Error Deleting File or Folder - cannot delete ese.dll: Access is denied." I must get rid of these blankety-blank things before I run out of disk space. Based on the number of related posts I'm guessing somebody must've figured out an answer to this problem. I just can't seem to find it posted here. Thanks in advance.3.5KViews0likes16Comments(CEP-19123) Backup Exec Role Based Access Control Demo

Hi There, I'm new to this forum, I use Backup Exec 2010 with an IBM LTO5 tape drive and we have three tapes that are showing a capacity of 35.4gb. If I try to use them it does indeed become full after 35.4gb. I've tried a full erase and everything I can think of and they're stuck at this capacity. I know it's only 3 tapes, not the end of the world... But I'm really curious as to what has happened to them. They weren't new, I think they came with the drive and had been opened. Any insight greatly appreciated!978Views0likes6CommentsReconfiguring Tape Library Partitions
I recently took over admin duties at a company running Backup Exec 2010 using a Dell TL4000 tape library with two drives and 44 tape slots. The previous admin is gone but left the TL4000 partitioned with5 partitions. The first two each have one slot, the next two have three each and the remaining slots (9 through 44) are in the last partition. I need to change this configuration but I'm wondering what effect the changes would have on existing jobs that use the current configuration...will they update automatically? I don't want to make any precipitous changes that could cause problems. Any help would be greatly appreciated.Solved1.5KViews0likes7Comments(CEP-19097) Backup Exec Sprint Demo (April 18, 2024)
