Hi everyone,
Im looking for a little help please?
We run a tape backup every night to LTO 5 tapes using Backup Exec 2012. It has 4 jobs and the final one is to back-up our SQL server.
On Wednesday the final SQL job ejected the tape part way into the job (159GBs in) and instead of showing the media title in the Storage section, showed a question mark.
I rebooted the server and restarted all the BUE services and the storage then showed 'No Media'. Restarting the services fixed this and it showed the media title again.
Last night the exact same thing happened - The SQL job ejected the tape at 159GB and shows a question mark in storage - Any ideas?
Im thinking that as both jobs ejected the tape at 159GB that maybe a file on the SQL server is locked? (we have a SQL dev in making changes on the server which I have no control of).
Also, is there any reason why the tape is ejecting?
Thank you
