Dr. Phil Leonard commented on: SEP 11 causes slowness on 32bit Server 2008 SP1

Thanks, I'll give it a try. But I can't for a few weeks, I've burned up a lot of credibility with my users and boss. Unfortunately for me, this was released the very day that I downloaded 11.0.2020.

Dr. Phil Leonard commented on: SEP 11 causes slowness on 32bit Server 2008 SP1

I ran netstat -an and port 9090 is not open, but I assume that's because I uninstalled SEP. If I do find, after reinstalling, that there are many open ports on 9090, what's the solution?

I need a solution We have a Dell 1950 running Windows Server 2008 32 bit with SP1. It runs fine until we install SEP 11 (we downloaded the latest version Symantec_Endpoint_Protection_11.0.2020_MR2_MP2). Then it runs for a while

Dr. Phil Leonard commented on: Archiving .BKF files...

Well, I remember trying a duplicate job when I first set this up, and I think it just took too long. Also, one issue is that I run several different jobs at once, all of them backing up to disk. Would I do the duplicate jobs to disk as well, ...

Dr. Phil Leonard posted: Archiving .BKF files...

I need a solution Once a month I take a daily backup tape out of rotation and archive it. The problem is that the "media" used (read: .bkf files) are recylced within BE and therefore, when I go to restore my archive ta

Dr. Phil Leonard commented on: LTO3 Tape Problems

Well, after two successful backups using a different set of LTO3 tapes, I'm ready to blame this issue on bad tapes. Hard to imagine...20 or so bad tapes...Hope your issue has been resolved.

Dr. Phil Leonard commented on: LTO2 Tape Capacity Problem

Two successful backups in a row using Quantum LTO3 tapes... I'm also going to say it's the tape, but my cynical side thinks that's too easy of a solution...HA. One more try with a Quantum tape should satisfy me.I hope my reseller takes all the ...

Dr. Phil Leonard commented on: LTO2 Tape Capacity Problem

Funny, I used a Quantum LTO3 tape for my backup today and it worked just fine - no request for a second tape. I've used over ten MAXELL tapes and had the same issue with all of them... NOT GOOD. Trying another Quantum tape tonight...

Dr. Phil Leonard commented on: Exclude files based on size?

If you click on the Advanced button while in job setup it gives you the option to Include or exclude based on filename. You could choose to exclude the dump files based on their extension, however I do not of any way to exclude based on file ...

Dr. Phil Leonard commented on: Tape capacity incorrect

I've upgraded the drive firmware, but still have the issue. Seems I'm not the only one as there are two other recent threads with the same issue.

discussion comment 08 Feb 2007

Dr. Phil Leonard commented on: LTO2 Tape Capacity Problem

Any luck? In another thread, it was suggested that the tape first be initialized using the manufacturer's utility...whatever that means... I haven't been able to figure this out yet.. I'm trying a QUantum LTO3 tape today to see if there's any ...

discussion comment 07 Feb 2007

Dr. Phil Leonard commented on: LTO3 Tape Problems

I'm in a thread with the same issue on LTO3 tapes. When you say "initialize" the tapes with the MFG utility, what exactly do you mean? Are you saying that I have to touch the tapes with an external utility everytime I use or re-use a tape in BE?

Yeah...Maxell tapes and a Certance Ultrium LTO3 - Certance was bought by Quantum...

Dr. Phil Leonard commented on: LTO2 Tape Capacity Problem

Sorry for the hijack but...This document really has nothing to do with this issue. I'm having the same problem with LTO3 tapes and a quick erase does not solve the problem. Reported capacity AFTER a quick erase is 400GB, yet my tape "runs out' ...

discussion comment 06 Feb 2007

Dr. Phil Leonard commented on: Tape capacity incorrect

It would appear I'm getting negative compression - 0.6:1 or lower at times. Any thoughts to what might be causing this? I've updated the Veritas tape driver - a bit leery to upgrade firmware as I use a Certance drive, which is now owned by ...

discussion comment 02 Feb 2007

Dr. Phil Leonard commented on: Tape capacity incorrect

Turning off compression did not work... Tape capacity showed 401GB available, however, when backup to tape job kicked off it asked for a new tape after only 255GB written...Anyone?

discussion comment 31 Jan 2007

Dr. Phil Leonard commented on: Tape capacity incorrect

Thanks for reply...I will try that tonight. I would assume an issue with compression would be consistent, and not sporadic, as in my case.
