Deduplication Storage Folder in Undiscovered State
I am trying to setup Backup Exec 2010 on a new server for testing and eventual production. I am trying to setup a Deduplication Storage folder on a dedicated volume (5TB - iSCSI), and everytime I do the storage folder is created sucessfully but I can not use it. If I go to the devices view the folder is marked as "Undiscovered". I have tried running backup jobs to this folder and any job that tries to use it just sits in a queued state. Can someone help me out and tell me what I am doing wrong. I am using a Windows 2008 R2 x64 server, with and EMCAX4-5i iSCSI SAN One other thing that is strange, is that if I look at the properties of the deduplication folder that was created it has different properties than the ones that I specified when I created the folder. The folder location is missing/greyed out, also the logging levels are set differently than when I created the folder. Any help would be appreciated.

Exchange 2003 Incremementals keep failing with 0xe000035e (but full backups work)
Backup Exec 2010 running on Windows 2008 R2 64 bit Exchange 2003 running on WIndows 2003 server Full backups run correctly (Ihave them running once a month) Incrementals always fail saying "The Backup Exec Agent for Microsoft Exchange was not used to create the last full backup of this database. You must use the Exchange Agent to run a full backup before you run a differential or incremental backup. " The incremental fails at night even when Ihave run a full backup that same day. Nothing else is trying to backup Exchange.

I need to develop an Excel spreadsheet that will list all of Symantec Backup Exec 11d individual backup jobs & then what servers, folders, and files are backed up under each individual backup job.
Question: I need to develop an Excel spreadsheet that will list all of Symantec Backup Exec 11d individual backup jobs & then what servers, folders, and files are backed up under each individual backup job. Is there a way that I can automatically generate such a report, or can I export such a report into a CSVDE file and then import it into Excel? I would rather automatically generate this report rather than having to manually create the spreadsheet. How can this be done? Can someone please provide me with step by step instructions? I have a VERY LARGE server envrironment and each individual Symantec Backup Exec backup job backs up quite a few servers. I need to be able to generate a report that will list the name of each individual backup job and then what server names and folders and files on the server are backed up.
