Is it possible to use something like this in the backup set identifier field of an Oracle Intelligent Policy?

Hi All,
I am wondering if anybody here is using libstation to control the robot from Netbackup.
I have an existing environment with a partitioned SL8500 library and I am tasked with configuring Netbackup to do tape out.
So Netbackup would see the robot via libstation on the mainframe. Libstation talks to HSC and HSC talks to the robot and vice versa.
So far I have run into two problems.
1) I don't see a way to tell Netbackup in the robot configuration which partition of the SL8500 libstation is supposed to talk to. The result is that it always goes to ACS01. It also needs to talk to ACS02.
2) Libstation is moved from one mainframe to another for mainframe reboots. Since I use the FQDN of the mainframe to configure the robot how would I deal with the libstation moving to another mainframe? Setting up a storage group does not work because I am planning on using Vault and Vault is tied to the robot not the storage group. So far the suggestion I got was to reconfigure the robot (and tape drives) everytime libstation moves. That is not something I want to do in the long run.
Any input appreciated!
Thank you

I have check the compatibility list. I wonder why Windows 2012 with SFW installed is not support BMR backup.
How can we protect the system disk of VCS nodes.
Over the past few weeks I had seen backup performance on a Windows 2012 R2 box with BackupExec 14.1 Rev 1786 go in the toilet.
Backup rates were on the order of 200MB/min to an LTO-4 tape drive.
Come to discover that patch KB3045313 was the culprit. I uninstalled the patch and the backup rates jumped up to over 1100MB/min.
Good morning everyone!
Have Symantec Netbackup 7.6.0.1
Master server installed on VM (Win Server 2008 R2).
Media server installed on physical host (Win Server 2008 R2).
Quantum Dxi 6702 VTL connected to master/media server via SAN switch.
VTL is detected on media server's OS as HP LTO 5 25 tape drives (installed drivers from HP on media server).
when i run in symanted conguration storage device wizard its shows unconfigured quantum robot and when i finished the wizard and go to device ad robot it's seems not enable so that unable enventory that robot library.
Any ideas? What should I check first?
PS: no Ghost 15 option found to post in, my apologies for "misposting".
I installed W10Pro, after full setup, I made a ghost of the drive, all is good.
Ran into trouble with W10Pro, so backup restore needed.
CD in drive, boot, restore computer, select file, start... death by error.
The error told me it could not restore to the drive, no such drive found.
Manual check: file address tells me C:\, target tells me C:\.
Not a bloody clue why it fails, both are correct in Source/Target address, but another death at start restore, same result.
Clever as I am, I think to myself: why not open the target drive through Ghost options, remove all files manually, and simply copy all from inside the backup file.
Plenty simple, I'd reckon.
But here's the snag: delete went troublesome, often an error "cannot delete file, file not existent".
So??????
What is the problem, it was meant to be deleted anyway.
This error stopped the whole process, no skip file, no resume, it stopped.
Restart C:/ delete, and again, and again, and... you get the point.
Once C:\ was empty, open backup file, copy, back to C;\, paste....
Pop-up tells me: COPYING, perfect, rght?
Well no...
See, for the past 4 hours, Ghost is scanning the source file.
Now, I used ghost quite a few times, a backup never took more than 40 minutes, verify included.
So, copying the file content should not take 40minutes, not to mention 4+bloody hours of just scanning, not even copying.
Is there something wrong?
Workaround this?
ADDENDUM:
Ghost finally figured it's time to copy.
Well not quite: error e7d1000e: file/folder does not exist.
Wait a sec, I SEE the folder and files myself, so what gives? O_O
It's driving me nuts, really.
Thank you aforehand.
Hi, we have a problem with restoring a virtual machine (Hyper-V Windows Server 2012 R2) with deduplication. Restore works only on a copy of one month. Older copies can not be restored lack of choice, as in the picture.
When I made the verification, program showed no errors but can not select and restore. Please help.
Sorry for my English.
Hi All,
how to get the size of expired images of last one month ?
Hi Symantec support,
Please help to check another case of VM backup failure:AOFO Initialization failure. It happened in BE2010 + MMS server 2012, VM Server 2008 standard
Please refer to attached screenshot.
Hi to All,
I need some confirmation about the information provided in Backup Exec 12.5 for Windows Servers.
Which information has exactlly on Restore Job properties, View by Media TAB, Modified Date Column?
I'm involved in forensics investigation, this is an example without real info:
E-Mail sended 16/03/2014 13:00:00, backup made on 31/12/2014 22:00:00, and looking for e-mail on Backup Exec, I see for this e-mail on Modified Column Date 16/03/2014 12:40:00.
Can be possible?, Backup is overwrritable, previous e-mail had the same date 16/03/2014 12:40:00. So I suspect that e-mail can be false, duplicated from previous one.
Are there some other possibility?
Thank you in advance!
QUESTION NO.1. when we use Jobs & Tasks, and repeat the backup job by one hour(example), It overrides on the Recovery Point & Do not create new RECOVERY POINT. Case is same in both(destination & offsite destination).
We have checked option to “create sub folder for each computer” for DESTINATION (where all computer’s backups will be stored.)
How Can we have 4 back-ups created for each 1 Hour scheduled (example) by using JOBS & TASKS- Independent Back-Up. This is to check that, we have multiple backups available to restore.
QUESTION NO.2. The Requirement is every 3months back-up With 4 latest back-up available. How can we achive it by using Jobs and Tasks(with Independent Back-up) as Jobs & tasks do not give option to mention the "number of Recovery Points to Limit". Please share if any one has the solution.
Looking for a solution. Hope the Requirement is not unique.

Hi,
I thought I had a handle on the Backup Exec licensing model, however after a long conversation with the 'offshore' support agent, they have completely confused me.
I have a CASO and an MMS. The MMS backups up a Windows file server.
1. Backup Exec 2014 Ent Svr License is installed on CASO
2. Backup Exec 2014 Server License is installed on MMS
3. Windows Agent License is installed on MMS
The Symantec Eng I spoke to couldnt confirm if the licenses should be applied to MMS or CASO so he ended up applying to both.
So where should I apply the licenses listed in lines 2 and 3 - to the MMS or the CASO?
thanks

Hi,
I try to install a Remote Agent for our Mac server but even though i got a valid licence key for "Remote Agent for Linux/Unix Server or Macintosh System", i don't see it in "Select the Remote Product" when i add a single computer, only "Symantec Backup Exec", "Remote Agent for Windows Systems" and "DLO Maintenance Service".
Is someone know how to install it?
Thx!

Hello all -
I am currently upgrading my servers (FROM: Windows 2008 R2 with Backup Exec 2010 R3, TO: Server 2012 R2 with Backup Exec 2015).
I do not recall ever needing a separate - 'Agent for Windows' when I purchased my licenses Backup Exec 2010 R3.
*Therefore my question is, will I now be missing functionality that I had before with 2010 R3?*
Thanks in advance! :)
I recently recieved a request to backup the MS Exchange Journal DB. I am not having any luck finding any reference to backing this up and how to go about it so I was wondering if I can just set this up as an Exchange policy type and use the Backup Selection for Exchange Database and grab it that way or if there were another method to doing this one. I am running Netbackup version 7.6.0.2. This server that the DB is on is not included in the DAG either.
