LTO5 tape is showing incorrect capacity
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!
Error EC8F17B7 along with Error ED800012: (CRC Validation) is invalid & Error E4F3000E: Snapshot failure while using Volume Shadow Copy Service
Hi I am trying to backup a PC using SSR2013 (Desktop ed). I have created a custom backup job to run on schedule but the backup continuously fails. I find the following error in the event log afterwards: Error EC8F17B7: Cannot create recovery points for job: Drive Backup of (C:\), (D:\). Error E4F3000E: Snapshot failure while using Volume Shadow Copy Service. Please check application event log for VSS errors. Error code: VSS_E_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND (-2147212536). (UMI:V-281-3215-6071) After running the job manually, I find the following in the event log: Error EC8F17B7: Cannot create recovery points for job: Drive Backup of (C:\). Error ED800012: The internal structure of the recovery point file (CRC Validation) is invalid, damaged or unsupported. (UMI:V-281-3215-6071) I have been trying a few solutions found on the Symantec website regarding these errors, but have not received any good results. I have also not found a solution that relates to SSR2013... Thanks Zaid
Tape Drives compatibility
Hi All, I Just want to know, Can we able to use the LTO6 Tapes in LTO5 supported tape library. And want to know the compatibility types. Got to know that we have backward compatibility while referring to the tapes capacity before inserting into the library. Could you please let me mnow that do we have FORWARD compatibility and how it work?? Pleas help me with that. Thanks, Yugandhar SGhost freezes up at same place (2%) when restoring a disk
I am trying to restore a disk using Ghost, and Ghost freezes up after only 2% restored (on multiple tries). Here are the details. I am trying to restore the E: drive of a Fujitsu R610 computer running Windows XP Professional. I am using Ghost 11 (booted off of a CD drive), and reading a 36.9-GB *.GHO file that is on a Western Digital (WD) USB drive, plugged into the CPU tower. The Fujitsu internal disks and the WD USB disk are all NTFS disks. I am running Ghost with the command: ghost> ghost -forceusb Each time I run it, the Ghost menu just freezes after only 697-705 MB have been restored (which is only about 2% of the data to be restored). Once it freezes, none of the numbers change in the Ghost status menu (waiting over an hour), and there is no way to exit. (The Tab, Return, and Esc keys do nothing in this state.) i had to then force a power-down by holding in the power button. I was able to use Ghost 11 to successfully restore the C: drive and the D: drive. When I initially backed up the E: drive, I created two equivalent *.GHO files, by running ghost "to disk" twice. Both *.GHO files had identical byte sizes, and Ghost completed without errors, so the *.GHO files seem to be OK. When I tried to restore using the second *.GHO file, ghost froze at the same place (after 697-705 MB). The internal E: drive is 72 GB, so it has plenty of room. I did a SCSI boot and ran the SCSI disk check on the E: drive, and the internal disk passed. I even tried restoring the *.GHO file onto another Fusitsu R610 computer that had a 146 GB internal disk, an it froze at the same place (697-705 MB). This 36.9-GB *.GHO file is the largest *.GHO file that I ever tried to restore on a Fujitsu R610 computer using this version of Ghost. I am wondering if thete is some limit in the size of the *.GHO file when restoring with Ghost 11. Or maybe there is some limit that I am hitting due to the computer's RAM? Tomorrow I might try to get the computer to boot, and then copy the *.GHO file to the C: drive, so that I can run Ghost by reading and writing all from internal disks. Does anyone have any advice? (This is a very critical disk that I must restore.) Thanks.
Did Windows NT or XP work on new hardwares (core i3, i5, i7 ..etc)
I have windows NT workstation 4.0 sp6 and XP, it's already installed in very old hardware , so i want your opinion to take this windows safe and put it in new hardware like (core i3) by backup or clone or any thing else like we will do it. so can we do it like i said , because the old hardware (cpu)s are totally different from new (cpu)s. So my question is can i backup my old system by (Norton Ghost, Acronis backup, Symantec ..etc) and put it in new hardware or new PCs??? So can anybody tell me more detail and more discussion about this ,and what are the problems that i will face it ?? THANK YOUUUU
