Catalogue Reporting from Backup Exec 12.5
Hello time-travelers, No it's not 2010. No need to adjust your clocks. What's the easiest way to run a discovery report on the Backup Exec 12.5 catalogue please? Are there any native or 3rd party tools that could help the discovery? Looking for simple information about: * Names of clients with valid backup images in the catalogue. * Date ranges of valid backup images in the catalogue. * Any data restores performed in last 2 years. Background: We have a legacy Backup Exec 12.5 platform running on Server 2003 that's been sitting idle for a number of years. The last backup image was created about 2 years ago, so it definitely has valid images. We have finally decided to decommission the old platform, but our Risk team wants to know what data is still being held on backups before they'll sign off on the "early" destruction. Thanks in advance for any advice.Ransomware - Encrypted backups
Hi Guys, one of the servers have been hit with ransomware, they have encrypted all files and folders including the last good backup, there is no offsite backup and this is the real only hope to get our info back. The backup was done the night before the attack and no further backups have taken place. All files are now encrypted with .roger extension I can rename the files back to readable .v2i format, but when trying to open them it fails, not sure if they corrupted or if just not doing it right. Are there other tools out there that can retrieve content information of .v2i backups? Hoping for good news...Thanks in advance
No drives available.
Hi, I have 3 media servers sharing 2 drives in an Quantum i500. We have a Storage lifcycle policy which eventually write to these 2 drives. There are 2 active jobs however they will only write to one drive at a time. One job will be writing and the other active job states "No drives avaiable" and doesn't use the second drive. Both drives are working ok as the jobs flip between the 2 drives. Storage Unit has maximum write drives set to 2.Netbackup admin console backup error
Dear, I perform daily backup on tape from monday to Saturday. Since last week, everytime i start the backup i get the following error: a pending action is associated with the resource request. User intervention may be required. I move to device monitor and i find pending request from another tape (very old tapes). I tried to deny request, assign.... It won't work because everytime i assign or deny i get another request from another tape. I appreciate your help. Sincerely. Jad.
