Ready; No idle devices are available
I'm new to Symantec Backup Exec as I've taken over the duties of someone else that left the company. The problem that I'm having is I can't get Backup Exec to backup anything, not to tape, not to a shared drive, etc.. Logically I would have thought the issue was that the previous employee had used his account for all Symantec functions, I was able to change his account information for all the services and the connection to the server. Everything appears to be fine, I'm able to do a Test Run without any problems but when I go to do a backup I don't receive any alerts I just get a message that says "Ready; No Idle devices are available". Same result no matter where I try to backup to. Anyone seen this before, have any suggestions of how I can fix it? We're using Backup Exec 2012 S1a. Thanks
Cancel Duplication jobs
Does anyone know how to kill a duplication job? I had to cancel some jobs because of where they were attempting to duplicat from and now i cant get them to stop retrying. The jobs keep failing with status 191 but i want them removed completly. I tried stopping all services and delete the bpjobd.act.db file but that didnt help. My console is just a sea of red where the duplications keep trying over and over. How do I kill these for good?
