PowerEdge 1600SC, Windows Server 2003 SBS, Archive Python 06408, & NTBackup

Question

I am having a problem creating an ASR backup with the tape.  When I attempt to write to the tape I get error messages in the Event log.  The following is what's in the backuplog: Backup StatusOperation: BackupActive backup destination: 4mm DDSMedia name: 'Operating System Backup 11/13/2003' The device reported an error on a request to MS_UpdateNtmsOmidInfo.Error reported: 11.There may be a hardware or media problem.Please check the system event log for relevant failures.An inconsistency was encountered on the media in 4mm DDS. Do not append to this media.The operation was ended.Backup completed on 11/13/2003 at 8:07 PM.Directories: 0Files: 0Bytes: 0Time:  1 second Error: C: is not a valid drive, or you do not have access. The operation was ended.Backup completed on 11/13/2003 at 8:07 PM.Directories: 0Files: 0Bytes: 0Time:  1 second ---------------------- The operation did not successfully complete. ---------------------- Backup StatusOperation: BackupActive backup destination: 4mm DDSMedia name: 'Operating System Backup 11/13/2003' The device reported an error on a request to MS_UpdateNtmsOmidInfo.Error reported: 11.There may be a hardware or media problem.Please check the system event log for relevant failures.An inconsistency was encountered on the media in 4mm DDS.

I have tried flashing the firmware using the TraceRX program with no success.  I am backing up the ASR to the D: drive and then will back it up on the tape using Backup Exec, but this is not the ideal solution.

I'm having the same problems with NT Backup as Jeremy and would be very grateful for any help anyone may have. The system is the same as described above but it runs Windows 2003 Server. Cheers Allan

hi,

i'm having the same issue. has anyone figured out what's going on? i'm running a precision 360 with the python drive and a siig ap-40 scsi controller. i think whatever is causing this issue is screwing with my veritas backupexec software.

thanks,

jeremy

I called Veritas support and found out that this is a known issue that they are working on resolving.  No time frame for a solution was given, the only fix at this moment is to uninstall Veritas.
