Increasing Storage
Greetings to the well of knowledge... I know this has been discussed ad nauseam, but I don't think I've heard an answer to this one: Understanding that the storage would need to be reconfigured and that the current backup sets would be lost, can the physical disks in the appliance be replaced to increase capacity? Currently, there are four 1.8 TB drives in the appliance configured as RAID 5. Why can I not replace these with 3TB drives and rebuild the storage and the database? Seems like this should be possible. Regards, Ken790Views0likes1Comment

Directory or File Not Found
I have a Backup Exec Appliance running Backup Exec 2014. It is backing up multiple Windows Servers and SQL databases. Everything is being backed up fine except for one server. This particular server is running Windows Server 2008R2 and has SQL 2008R2. I am receiving the following error: Final error: 0xe00084af - The directory or file was not found, or could not be accessed. If I restart the Server with the problem, the backup runs fine for the first night, and then fails the next night. It will continue to fail until I restart the Server. I have tried setting up two individual jobs for this server. One job backs up the C:\ and other data, while the second job backs up only SQL instances. They are set so that the first job is finished well before the second runs, so there is no conflict there. The first job always runs fine, but the job for the SQL instances always fails with the above error. Also, the following error is in the job log as well: V-79-57344-34108 - An unexpected error occurred when cleaning up snapshot volumes. Confirm that all snapped volumes are correctly resynchronized with the original volumes. I have read solutions involving shadow copies on the server being backed up, but shadow copies are disabled on the server, so that should not be the problem. Does anyone have any advice or suggestions? Thanks in advance.Solved1.7KViews1like4Comments
Backup Exec Appliance 3600. Dedup device is offline
Hi, I happens from time to time that Backup Exec 3600 Appliance stop working. Normally , a reboot and/or restart of services will fix the problem. We have done it several times, and it fix the problem each time. Almost. Last year we had a simular problem, the dedup device went offline. We tried to reboot/restart services. It doesn't help. So we google about it on net. One article mentioned somethng about a specifc file that can cause problems with dedup device. We renamed/removed the file, and then restarted the services. The server start working again. Problem this time, I cannot remember the file name. Hope someone can help me with it /Geir871Views0likes2Comments
What Java version on a 3600 appliance
Hi everyone! I am new to this company, and just started to do some vulnerablity scans. One thing that came up is that our Java is out of date on our 3600 appliance. If I update Java from Java 7 to 8u71 then the WebUI will not work. Is there a trick to getting it to work? I have added the IP address to the exception list, but that did not resolve the issue. Can I make it run without Java? What is the highest level of Java that works with this version? Model 3600 Version 3.1.2190.0 Thank you for your help.Solved994Views0likes1Comment
