Richy_Boy Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 Hi, today I'm checking over my Proactive backups after a change to what machines use this system and after monitoring the Sources it just seems to jump through machines which have not been on our network for a while. I have changed a few settings but I can't get it to go right through the list. Can anyone advise me on what settings I need to set as I'm only backing up 3-6 machined a day, when I should be doing many more in the 8 hour wokring day! It reaches on machine where the user deferrs the back and starts at the top of th elist again!? Thanks, Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richy_Boy Posted April 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 Actually, having just spoken to the user, he's not even deferring! I'll reinstall his backup client and see if it's resolved! Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richy_Boy Posted April 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 Install of the latest client didn't fix the issue, so I'll look further after the Easter break here. might have to delete his account and start over to sort it as ther eis nothing on his laptop to cause this... This software would be so much more efficient if multiple proactive searches could b active at the same time, it spends more time bouncing through a list than actually backing up!

Try this - there may be a windows temp file blocking it, I recently found this on one of my clients. http://kb.retrospect.com/articles/Retrospect_Article/Clients-are-continuously-deferred-during-Proactive-Backup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richy_Boy Posted April 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 rsleegers, you're a star! File deleted and the machine was jumped on by the Proactive Script and backed up as is should. THANK YOU! Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
