rustyjones40 Posted December 26, 2005 Report Share Posted December 26, 2005 I have Retrospect 7.0.326 update 7.0.10.101. I will look at the waiting list and see scripts waiting for a backup set. It shows "Waiting for" then a blue disk icon, then the name of the server. I have 700gig free on the drive to backup to, the backup set will have 100gig free, and the total space used on the server tro be backed up is 40gig, so there is enough free space. I can reboot the Backup server and restart the retrospect client and it wont start. If I forget the backup set, then re-add it to the backup script, it will run normally. But stop again in a few days to a week. Retrospect tech support says that Retrospect can do that and the way to fix it is to re-add the backup set to the script. But I have 45 backup scripts and 2 or 3 a day will do it, why do I have to redo my backup jobs every day to get the program to run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natew Posted December 27, 2005 Report Share Posted December 27, 2005 Hi Where are these backup sets stored? Are you using proactive backup or standard backup scripts? Thanks Nate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rustyjones40 Posted December 29, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 They are stored on my D: drive, it is a stripe set a total 3.7TB with 700gig free, It is standard backup scripts, I do have one proactive backup script that runs ok.

natew Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 Hi What do you have the size settings for each member set to? Make sure each one is set to 100% or 99%. Are the catalog file and the backup set data on the same disk? If not try keeping the catalog file on the system disk and the data on the stripe set.

rustyjones40 Posted January 2, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2006 100% or 99% of the entire drive for each backup? If the backup set reaches full, it prompts me so that is not the problem, I can add more space or groom the set and the backup will start running again. The issue is the backup wont start even when I have a total server space to be backed up of 10 gig and have 100 gig free in the set with 700gig free on the drive, so space should not be a issue. The catalogs are on my C: drive and the data is stored on the D: drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natew Posted January 5, 2006 Report Share Posted January 5, 2006 Hi Interesting. What happens if you store a catalog file on the same volume as the backup data? Thanks Nate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rustyjones40 Posted January 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2006 No dfference on the catalog location, I had the catalogs on the D: drive originally and needed the space so I moved them to the C: drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
