Synthetic Backups
We curently have arounf 50tb of files on our file server, split over various jobs that are Full to tape and Incrementals to disk (and duplicated to tape). I want to move to disk based for all the fulls (synthetic) with duplication to tape. 1. Would the synthetic full from disk to tape be any quicker than going directly to tape? 2. Would the synthetic full fromtape to tape be any quicker than going directly to tape? 3. Could incrementals run whilst the synthetic full was being run or would it be superseded - (I want to increase the frequency of incrementals) thanks!

Exchange Catalog Job Failure - 0xe00002f7 Cannot Extract Mailbox - VFF Open Failure
Using BE 2014 and its driving me nuts. One of the Exchange Incremental Backup keeps failing! It has been fine for a while. Other databases on the same server dont seem to return this error. Completed status: Failed Final error: 0xe00002f7 - Cannot extract mailbox messages from the Exchange backup. Review the job log for more information. Final error category: Resource Errors Catalog- \\MAIL01.X.ORG\Microsoft Information Store\X Mailstore V-79-57344-759 - Unable to complete the operation for the following reason: VFF Open Failure. This can be caused by low memory or disk resources. I tried these and it did not help. Also restarted all BE Services. https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.TECH128187 https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.TECH180039 If you guys could please give me any kind of help, it would be appreciated.

Storage Expiration Settings for Synthetic Backups
I'm creating a synthetic full backup job on Backup Exec 15. I'm only interested in keeping the synthesized full backup and the incrementals that follow it before they get rolled into the next syntheticbackup at the end of the week. What should I set for the storage expiration for the full, incremental, and synthetic full backups? I'm doing an incremental backup every weeknight (M-F) and then on Saturday I'm creating the synthetic full. I want to keep the incrementals only until the synthetic full is created at the end of the week, and then I no longer need them. And the synthetic full only needs to be kept for a week -- once the next week's synthetic full is created, I no longer need the previous weeks'. The bottom line is that at any time I only need one full backup of my data on disk (that I may duplicate to removable storage). Also, since I need to do the initial full backup only once, how do I create the backup job and schedule it to run the full backup once without a recurring schedule? Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

BackupExec 2014 - No writable idle devices available
Hello, I'm needing some help with what to me is a strange issue. I have several jobs which were queued but not running even though they should have completed. I found thatthe spoold service was stuck or hung in a starting condition.After searching the forums before I tried anything, I re-started the server and this time the spoold service is no longer hung. All services are running correctly. Now I'm getting a Job Status of Ready; No writable idle devices are available. Also when I go to the storage tab I find that everything is online except Deduplication disk storage 0001 of the Robotic library says it is offline. I am using BE2014 v14.1 rev 1786 64-bit on a Dell PowerEdge R320 Server running Windows 2012 R2 Server Standard (full installation) 64-bit. I appreciate any help that I can get for this issue. I'm not sure what other information anyone may need. I'll be happy to try andsupply any information needed. Thanks in advance for your assistance!

Differental Backups w/Modified Time does Full Backup
I recently switched our backups from using the archive bit to using the Modified time instead. The idea was that modified times are supposed to be faster than checking each archive bit. I've since run one Full backup using the Modified time settings, and now our differentials are all performing full backups each time they run. The Full and Differential jobs are both set to use time stamps(they are under the same parent job), but it seems like the Modified Time is being completely ignored. The files are stored on a Hitachi NAS unit and shared as CIFs folders. A Backup Exec agent cannot be installed on it.I recieve an error each time this unit is backed up due to this(full, incremental, or diff), though the files backup successfully. Backups are direct to tape via fiber channel. Can I not make use of modified times to backup this server, or do I need some additional configuration?

BE 2010 won't use empty disk folder
Hello and thanks in advance for any help you might be. Problem: BE 2010 keeps trying to backup to a full disk folder when I have another disk folder empty. I just inheirited this setup and am new to BE. I have tried to google this problem but have not been able to find an answer. Under the Devices tab I have 4 disk based backup devices defined. Simply Disk-Folder-1, ... Disk-Folder-4. Folders 1-3 are full, folder 4 is empty. I have a media set called VMware-Incremental I have a job that uses VMware-incremental. The job keeps trying to backup to Disk-Folder-2 which is full, how do I tell it to use 4? I'm at a loss to determine how to tell whatmedia set uses what device. Any Help will be greatly appreciated.

V-79-57344-38264 - Unable to copy the virtual machine disk using the VMware VixDiskLib.
Hello Everyone, Currently we have a server 2008 64bit server with BE 2014 which was upgrade from 2012 and for some strange reason I keep getting this particular error message while backing up a few VMs as you can see below. V-79-57344-38264 - Unable to copy the virtual machine disk using the VMware VixDiskLib. VixDiskLib_Read() reported the error: NBD_ERR_DISKLIBV-79-57344-38366 - WARNING: "VMVCB::\\10.0.1.5\VCGuestVm\(DC)ha-datacenter(DC)\vm\SCSMDW\SCSMDW\SM Warehouse-000002.vmdk" is a corrupt file. This file cannot verify. Transport mode 'nbd' was used for the read operation of the disk 'SM Warehouse_1-000002.vmdk' In addition, I have research this particular message and I have not yet found anything online that is exactly what I am having issues with. Furthermore to provide additional background information the issue that I am having with the VM are on an Exsi host that is running version 5.5.
