Accourding to a IT company vendor we where recommended Symantec backup exec system recoverry, to backup our server.
Now it came to my attention, since i am basicly new to this company that they have been running a 60 day trial version.
I would like to pointout that i came to make sure all programs are working as they are intended to and legallyand for a whole lot more reasons, am just a straight forward any slackers worst nightmare. Recently we have had problems with backups in which case most of the jobs has been canceled which placed me in a software debate against the System engineer from the IT company. He said Backup exec License does not expire, however Backup exec System recovery that runs test images did expire. In my head i was thinking these two are just features of the same product which is still a 60 day Trial.

My question is, are there limitations for backup exec  to why i got Job cancellation so frequent?
And are there other reasons mayb that why backups arent running?

error report : The Job was Automaticlly canceled because it exceeded the job's maximum configured run time.

this runs every night at a schedualed time.
