backupexecmanagementservice.exe consumes all available RAM
I have a recent problem starting to occur on Backup Exec 2016. The Backupexec Management Service starts consuming all the RAM, then it fills the pagefile.sys which consumes all capacity on my C drive. The service normally runs at @100k RAM, but when this apparent memory leak occurs, it consumes all 24GB RAM, plus all my pagefile. Has anyone else experienced this error and what was the fix please? Any help much appeciated!Solved3KViews0likes6CommentsSlow backup to tape
Hi, We're having some trouble backing up virtual and physical servers to tape. We're not getting the speed it should get and it takes up a lot of time to back up the environment. 2,63TB of data takes up more than 24 hours. Information about job, tape & tape drive: Tape type: HPE LTO Ultrium 6 6,25TB MP RW Tape Drive: MSL 2024 Compression: Hardware Encryption: None Verify: Yes These backups are going through the internal network within the domain. The average backup speed is 4,300MB/m (which is way to slow) When we backup locally on the backup server (for example the D:\ drive where the incremental disk backups are saved on the backup server) it gets to a speed of 10500MB/m. Which is understandable considering it's a straight connection to the tape drive. What did we do to try and resolve it: * Checked the compression * Checked encryption * Replaced tapes for new tapes * Resetted the tape drive * Updated Tapedrive firmware * Checked out the network for inconsistencies (not found), file transfers via other apps around 126mbs from server to server) * Job from VM on hyper-visor to tape (around 2,900 MB/m) * Local disk to tape (between 10500MB/M and 13500MB/M) * VM to disk on the backup server (Around 6200MB/M) Help would be appreciated.1.9KViews0likes2CommentsDuplicate Jobs
Hi, I have a question that might not be easy to explain but I'll give it a try. I have some tapes from specific media sets that are shortly used because the backups spreaded amongst them and I would like to free some of those tapes by creating duplicate jobs that would concentrate the backup sets on only a few tapes. My question is, if I duplicate a media set that is spreaded across two tapes into another one, will it copy only the backup set I chose from a specific tape or will it copy the begining of that backup set that was written in another tape too? Because if that happens, I'll end up having duplicate data and I don't want that, I just want to free som tapes that have little data written on them, like the end of a backup set, so I can use them on other media sets I have for new backups. Hope I made myself clear. Thanks!Solved2.8KViews0likes6CommentsBackup exec 2016 & Dell Compellent

We are currently playing with Backup Exec & the AWS Tape Gateway to backup to VTL in S3/Glacier. We have an issue where backups are failing and also where once a week (sometimes every other week) when one backup job begins, it first wipes all tapes. Has anyone seen this before?441Views0likes0CommentsUnable to locate browser.exe within BE15 download
Hello Masters, We are trying to add new license we have recently purchased. We are following License installation wizard and have added all SLF files we have. But before It actually registered the licenses, BE asked to browse the Browser.exe file. So we downloaded the BE full version but neither we, nor BE wizard can locate the Browser.exe file anywhere in the download, which is stopping us to add/register the license. Can someone please help or guide us if we are doing anything wrong or missing something in this process of adding licenses?1.5KViews0likes2CommentsBackup Vertias 16 errror on Windows server 2016

HI All, So we started with Backup Exec 14 few years back and I've updated to BE 16 last week with latest patch due to following issue when Symantec could not resolve it. Issue: When backup up VM's, there are lot of Temporary folders been created in folder C:\Program Files\Symantec\Backup Exec\Data. (Folders name include VM's name and date ), and number of folders been created keep growing everyday. Troubleshoot done: I've logged a call with Symantec and for a week they did troubleshooting and today an Advanced tech called me and advised that this is a known issue and only work-around is to delete these folders manually ? Now I have had the same above issue while we were on BE 15, with all the patches installed, hence why I quickly upgraded to BE 16 to see if that resolve the issue. Symantec advance support tech directed me to this article ( https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.000023219 ) which is according to the article was an issue on BE 2014. So I don't believe that Backup Exec 16 will have this now, will it ? And I can't accept an answer been deleting these folder manually every day as a solution. Does anyone experienced this kind of issue ? Cheers3.3KViews0likes3Comments
