Restore from tape
I need a solution
It has been over 10 months since I have used NetBackUp. I am out of touch with the trouble shooting process.Our old file servers from which the backups were created have been decommissioned. I need to restore a folder from a backup tape. I have the backup tapes I added them to the library and did an inventory. I then started Backup, Archieve and Restore. From FILE>SPECIFY NETBACKUP MACHINE AND POLICY TYPE I selected the following as per FIG 1. I started the restore with these settings in FIG 2. I get the following as per FIG 3.
I need immediate help as the tapes are due to expire after 5 hours.

Manually deleting images, catalog has no record of
I need a solution
I have about 4.5 TB on a basic disk storage unit that isnt valid I just discovered. The partition is 7TB used for Server_Diff storage. This storage unit is for Diffs only and actively being written too without issue. I notice these images are not listed in the catalog for the clients. I did a search and didnt see anything identical to this issue in the forms. If I delete these images manually is this going to cause any issues. My thought is no based on my understanding, but I would love a more knowledgeable confirmation. Thanks.
EDIT: The images here shouldnt be older than 2 weeks based on retention. Some are 2-3 months old.

Deduplication Option for BE2014 - 64 TB Limit?
I need a solution
Hi All,
I've read the following KB article - http://www.symantec.com/docs/HOWTO99113
From it I'm infering that there's a 64 TB limit on the deduplication folder in BE2014. Can someone confirm this?
Is there any word on what the limit might be in BE2015 (aka BE15)?
Thanks

BE 12.5 - System State job perpetually queued
I need a solution
Hello all,
I have a BackupExec 12.5 (rev 2213) install on a customer's site, and we have a System State job that, after starting, never leaves the Queued state, even after several hundred hours. The job never appears to move any data - it just sits there.
Here's the output of the properties of the job - server named and users have been changed for privacy:

Enable client-side dedupe on a subset of clients
I need a solution
I'm running Netbackup 7.5 in a Windows environment. I have lots of Windows clients running backups to a Media Server Deduplication Pool and all the deduplication is happening on the media server. I have a single master server.
I have a remote office with 6 or 7 Windows servers that currently has its own media server and tape library but soon will have neither. I will need to back them up to my local dedupe disk pool over the network. Seems a good situation to enable client-side dedupe on those 6 or 7 servers.
From what I can tell I need to go into the Properties of the Master Server under Host Properties. Then under Client Attributes I make the change under Deduplication Location from 'Always use the media server' to 'Prefer to use client-side deduplication' (or Always use ...).
Since I only have one master server this is pretty much a global change, right? I can go to each policy and check the 'disable client-side deduplication' box but that's a lot more work than just enabling client-side deduplication for a few servers.
How do I enable client-side deduplication for just a handful of clients? If I change the Deduplication Location in the Client Attributes of the Host Properties does it just apply to the clients listed in the client list or does it apply to all the clients of that master server?
Thanks a million.

Question about forced rescan
I need a solution
Hi all,
Using nbu 7.6 as master/media server, and Windows2k8 client.
A CIFS share (30 million files) is backed up with Accelerator enabled.
I can see forced rescan is automatically used for some backups, even I don't enable it in the schedule.
Is it a bug?

Slow AVVI performance with SAN transport
I need a solution
Symantec,
Could someone plesae point me in the right direction. I have the following:
Dell Equallogic arrays in R10 configu with 24x10k spindles each (so they're not slow)
Dell Poweredge R720xd with 24 spindles of 10k drives in R10 (so once again, not slow)
Dell Powerconnect 8132f dedicated 10gb iSCSI SAN network all hosted locally with jumboframes enabled
When I run AVVI backups i only see about around 2000-4000 mb a minute no matter what I seem to do to it. I can confirm from the sgmon logs that the backups are running in SAN transport mode but the throughput is just poorer than I would expect (And have seen in the past)
As I type this I have 2 full backups running with one not moving past 1500mb/min and the other at 920mb/min
when i first got BE2012 installed and working i could consistently backup 10,000-12,000mb a min but as time has gone on (and updates bave been applied) this has stadily reducted.
I can see in SANHQ that IOPS are only around 300-400 (easily under what the array can provide) and the latency is around 10ms
Does anyone have any hints/tips/black magic that may restore backup performance?
Cheers...

BEX 2014 - Catalog tasks fail to complete
I need a solution
Hello,
from a week every catalog tasks I performed on a QNAP NAS fail with this error:
Final error: 0xe000e006 - A backup storage read/write error has occurred. If the storage is tape based, this is usually caused by dirty read/write heads in the tape drive. Clean the tape drive, and then try the job again. If the problem persists, try a different tape. You may also need to check for problems with cables, termination, or other hardware issues. If the storage is disk based, check that the storage subsystem is functioning properly. Review any system logs or vendor specific logs associated with the storage to help determine the source of the problem. You may also want to check any vendor specific documentation for troubleshooting recommendations. Final error category: Backup Device Errors Completed status: Failed
The NAS disks are ok, already tested many times, sometimes I get also the error "disk offline"... but it's online !
This error happens also with another QNAP NAS using a USB 3.0 disk, no issues using RAID 5 20tb.
Anyway, a catalog task is mandatory or not ?

Backup Exec Enterprise Vault agent not recognizing new EV Directory/Site server after migration
I need a solution
I followed Symantec's technotes and used the Enterprise Vault Server Migration tool to move our EV server to new hardware. Everything went pretty much perfectly using the migration utility until it came time to backup the vault stores/indexes on the new server. Our Backup Exec CASO server--I think-- is still trying to go to the old EV directory/site server and of course failing out with "browse failure" communication errors ("Enterprise Vault services are not responding to commands sent by Backup Exec; ensure that Enterprise Vault directory service is running").
I've tried restarting the services on the EV SQL server, the EV Directory/Site server and the primary Backup Exec CASO server, but nothing seems to be working.
Does anyone have ideas or thoughts? I can't even really seem to find any event viewer errors on any of the three involved servers.
Thank you very much for any advice or insight.

Hi,
I am running with a POC with Appliance 5230 installed as Master/Media with MSDP.
I enable Encryption on appliance: Main_Menu> Settings> Deduplication> Tune Encryption Enable.
Now, how to I ensure that images on pool are encrypted, and how do I test that it is secured with unautorized restore to distinct server/location.
I do see some file created under /disk/databases/catalog/number/client_host_name/policy_name/client-host-name_backup-timestamp_C1_F1.img
should I also have a keys stored somewhere?
