I am using NBU 7.6.0.3 and have policies that use the vmware policy type, and the advanced attribute Post vCenter events is set to All Events.  I backup each vm through a VMware backup host running Windows 2008 R2.  The backups run successful, but none of the VMs are getting the NB_LAST_BACKUP attribute assigned to them.  Any ideas?

Hi

 

How can I implement and setup Backup Exec 2014 on windows server 2012?

Using BEMCLI for delete existing older backup sets

$

I need a solution

Hello,

i don't find a cmdlet for delete older existing backup sets from an Media Server.

From the UI, Backup and Restore, select a Server and Backup Sets. I select the needed Backup Sets and with right Mouse clic Delete. Easy

This is possible only for one or more Backup Sets but not for any Servers and any many old Month backup Set.

 

From bemcli, i want use :

Get-BEJob "$ServerName $BackupType" | Get-BEJobHistory | Where-Object {($_.StartTime -lt $a)} | ????????

I found : Remove-BEJobHistory but will only delete the history. What happens with the Backup Sets ?

 

Otherwise, is it possible to change, with bemcli, the Expiration Date ? So BackupExec will remove automatically this older BackupSet

 

Thanks for help.

Hi,

I have a new setup  with a CASO and MMS - The catalogs are configured as distributed.

When CASO is offline shouldn’t the locally created jobs not continue? (Now it's just stuck at Loading Media - Target is B2D locally)

I'm getting database error messages on the MMS and console becomes unstable. (See attached picture)

 

BE 2012 D2D2T DLM and duplication stage vs. NetBackup SLP...

$
0
0
I need a solution

Hi Forum,

Re: BE 2012

With NetBackup SLP, NetBackup will retain the backup data on the intermediary disk staging device until the SLP duplication to tape stage is complete.

Does BE do this?  I mean, in BE, if a duplication stage is missed or fails, then does BE retain the backup data until it is duplicated to tape, or does BE just follow its usual DLM retention rules.

I guess I could re-phrase this as... In BE are the 'duplication to tape' stages loosely coupled to the backup job, or are they tightly coupled (as in NetBackup)?

Thanks.

Backup Exec 2014 appliance for backing up all servers,

We have 2 backup tasks one for Hyper-V hosts (backup Vm’s), and second for backup up exchange DAG.

We are facing issue in DAG job that in the middle of task one of the mailbox servers freeze and stop responding the following:

Backup exec agent lose the connection.

But server is available on the hyper-V console with limited connection status on network icon.

However in that time server stop responding for any network traffic (RDP, Ping, ETC) for 2-3 hours then it back to live again or once we do manual live migration for one of the hosted VM’s on the same host as the failed mailbox server it comes a live instantly.
 

In that time server goes down (Mailbox2) some errors in event viewer.

Mailbox-02 errors with screenshots are uploaded here

 

 Alos i'm opening ticket with Microsoft regarding that issue. but urgent for me so i came here :) 

Also Symantec EXEC job status fail with the attached log.

Remote Agent Versions

I need a solution

Recently I did an upgrade for a customer, backup exec 2012 SP3 to SP4. The upgrade went well, no problems at all. So after the upgrade I told the customer to plan the agent upgrades. I demonstrated how to do this in the bexec gui by right clicking the server and then click update. I tryed this on one of their servers and the agent went to version 14.0.1798.1373.

 

After couple days I hear back from customer that some agents cannot be pushed so I explain to him the local installation method by copying the RAWS64 folder and running setupaa64.cmd.

 

Again the customer mails me that agent installations now work but the version number goes to 14.0.1798.1364...which is lower then the one I did from the gui.

 

I tryed doing the install local again by myself and I got the same version, I see no errors popping up during the installation...I see the command prompt window which closes after about 4 seconds and then a _setup.exe process runs on the server for a while. When that was done I rebooted the server...still the 1364 version. I also tryed killing any msiexec.exe processes before running setup64.cmd but still no luck. I did NOT try to remove the agent and reinstall from scratch...these servers are not easy to reboot for the customer and time windows are short for reboots. It's all physical servers and mix of regular, oracle and sql...

 

Also backup exec gives no mention of the agent needing an upgrade in the job logs, the backups run fine with "green" status, so no warnings.

 

So my question is, is it normal that the version is not the same ?

Duplicating to another disk or tape from an AdvancedDisk

I need a solution

Hi,

 

I'm wanting to duplicate a number of images from one storage unit to another, to free up the disk shelf for redeployment. Using the catalog section, when I select duplicate from the top box, I can't select AdvancedDisk (only Basic Disk) so I can't search for the images to Duplicate.

Is there another way to do this when using an AdvancedDisk?

 

Thanks

I need a solution

I have a job in which I have 5 VMs selected for backup. If the 1st VM backup fails for some reason, does it continue with backing up the remaining VMs or does the whole job fail.?

Also is there a way I can multistream the VM backups instead of it running sequentially.

 

Thanks

I need a solution

I have couple of virtual machines which run SQL 2008. Are there any cons to backing up SQL using the AVVI, is there any drawbacks in terms of restore or should I stick to backing up SQL server using the traditional approach ?

I came across a few forum discussions that along with the VM backup I need to create another job for transaction logs. 

Can anyone suggest whats the best approach to backup the SQL server 

 

Thanks in advance. 

 

Exchange Backup—GRT Processing Hangs at 0 of N backup selections

I need a solution

I'm running Backup Exec 2014, and backing up an Exchange 2007 server. For a good amount of time, everything was going well. Recently, however, after a change to one of the storage groups (Disabling circular logging), the job hangs immediately after GRT processing begins. The latest job has gone for 36 hours without processing any Storage Groups for GRT data. The backup, itself, is only taking about four hours.

Any thoughts on what will cause this, or what debugging I could turn up to get more information?

Thanks,
Brian

BackupExec 3600 Appliances - Duplicate to the cloud & data calculator?

$

I need a solution

Guys

I have 2 appliances. My data growth is growing at a huge rate and I'm struggling to keep a hold on the amount of server backups taking place. I'm constantly battlig with the space on my 2 applicances and have regular deletions of data setups due to no space. My companie's growth is great but there's an underwritten expectation that I have to manage the data no matter the demands. As such, when I speced out BackupExec 3600 appliances for my backups, I was only running 8-10 servers and running weekly full and daily incrmentals. That was over 2.5 years ago,  and I now have 45-50 servers that require to be backed up. I currently running BE2012 but im in the process of upgrading to BE2014. Here are my 3 questions

* Is there a BE calculator I can use on a new or existing servers to determine the amount of data that will be backups and deduped?

* Is there a data retention calculator where it can say how much storage I would probably need to keep X days/months/years of X amount of data?

* Is there an option to allow me to send backups to the cloud (deduped if possible) so I can keep old backups/server images of my local storage but still allow for recovery for legal and compliance laws?

Cheers.
