Thread: Backup

  1. #1

    Thumbs down Backup

    Hi,

    1. By example - daily full backup on dynamic volume:
    I created a weekly pool (use tape once),
    created 6 virtual tapes inkl. labeling (mo - sa.) ,
    created 6 full backup tasks eg. monday tape run every week only monday at 23:50.

    Then I run a manual backup task to examine that everything works > works.
    After that I created scheduled tasks for every task. but no single scheduling was working!
    ERROR message > '1: Cannot find tape or user has stopped the backup task'

    BUT > the external usb-disk is visible and If I try to run the job manually it works.

    You should place a different start for your scheduled tasks, as start/end for each task should not be the same as another task.

    You mean a different start-time- eg. mon. start at 23:00 and thu. 23:01 ?
    Why?

    I mean that if you create a task, it is better to make a start time for each one different with one min(in the same day) for ex:
    first start at 13:00-13:40, then put the second at 13:41- 14:00 for example, not to start it at 13:40.
    Some tasks if started in the same time could make some confliction if the tasks related together.

    To avoid further confusion, can you please describe how to setup a common weekly backup on a dynamic volume with eg. 5 or 6 virtual backup tapes.

    Can you send me a screen shot of the Backup task or send to pre-sales@open-e.com and we can do a netview session to look into the system. Or look at the video below.
