Ready; No idle devices are available
I'm new to Symantec Backup Exec as I've taken over the duties of someone else that left the company. The problem that I'm having is I can't get Backup Exec to backup anything, not to tape, not to a shared drive, etc.. Logically I would have thought the issue was that the previous employee had used his account for all Symantec functions, I was able to change his account information for all the services and the connection to the server. Everything appears to be fine, I'm able to do a Test Run without any problems but when I go to do a backup I don't receive any alerts I just get a message that says "Ready; No Idle devices are available". Same result no matter where I try to backup to. Anyone seen this before, have any suggestions of how I can fix it? We're using Backup Exec 2012 S1a. Thanks
BackupExec Agent for Mac OS X Server not working
I cannot seem to get the BackupExec agent for OS X Server working. I have an XServe running 10.6.4 and RALUS/RAMS 2896.9 (2010r2). I have gone through the installrams script and verified everything is correct. All ports between my server and the backup server are open while troubleshooting this problem. The admin for the backup server has verified everything is correct on his end. Whenever he goes to connect to my server, it is killing the remote agent on my server. I have restarted with the logfile option and can attach if needed. The only thing that stands out to me is that some of the dylib's are not being loaded even though I have added that directory (/opt/VRTSralus/bin) to my DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH variable. Everything else looks normal, at least to me, but the agent is killed when the backup admin tries to connect to it from the BackupExec Console.
0xe000feb9 - The NDMP subsystem reports (Any real fixes or work arounds)
OK I have seen and read quite a few posts on this matter, with very few solutions. Here is my issue. Here is what I am having for an issue. Iam using the BackupExec 11D (7071) and backing up Windows Systems. The majority of my jobs run fine. There are a few jobs that error out because of the *** Completed status: Failed Final error: 0xe000feb9 - The NDMP subsystem reports that a request cannot be processed because it is in the wrong state to service the request. Final error category: Resource Errors For additional information regarding this error refer to link V-79-57344-65209 **** I have checked out the port 10000 on the affected servers. The port on the affected system is used by Client system I have uninstalled rebooted reinstalled on the affect system with no change. Changing the port on all the servers is not a good option as the amount of systems that is affected is not large, and change it on good systems I fear may cause more harm then good. So anyone have a good solution for htis or a wokr around for the affect systems to be able to back them up? Thanks for any suggetions.
Impressions of BackupExec 2012
Is it just me, or does anyone else absolutely HATE the redesign of Backup Exec? I have worked with BE since version 8, and I have become acutely familiar with the menus, where everything is, and how it works. This redesign of the UI reminds me of the differences between Microsoft Office 2003 and Office 2007, only much worse. Menus are now hidden behind other menus, and everything has a completely counter-intuitive feel. At first, I thought that the feeling would pass as I grew more familiar with the product, but in fact my dislike has grown as I have found more issues. Does anyone else feel the same way?ERROR: Failed to register/unregister D:\Program Files\Symantec\BACKUP~1\NT\
