ajwh Posted April 21, 2014 Report Share Posted April 21, 2014 Two issues - possibly related. I upgraded from V8 to 9.0.0 (89) and then to 9.0.1 (110) When I start Retrospect, it insists on telling me that V9 is available - do I want to upgrade. Possibly related - the retrospect client on the same machine - 9.0.0.(187) keeps telling me there's been no backup for over a month - not true!

Mayoff Posted April 21, 2014 Report Share Posted April 21, 2014 You really should not have the Retrospect client installed on your backup server. This copy of Retrospect can not do a network backup of itself. It runs as a local backup. You can ignore the warning about needing to download the update to 9.0.0. The current version is 9.0.1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajwh Posted April 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2014 I know it's not actually the client - it's the bit of the program which sits on the task bar and produces warnings.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing that can "produce warnings" like that is the Retrospect Client software. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajwh Posted April 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2014 Robin I don't have a client installed on this machine - the client database only shows two networked machines. I have a red icon on the lower right task-bar. When I hover over it, I get the attached frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayoff Posted April 21, 2014 Report Share Posted April 21, 2014 The screenshot clearly shows that you do have the Retrospect client installed. That is why the text "Open Retrospect Client preferences" appears in that window. Have you looked inside add/remove programs for the Retrospect Client?

ajwh Posted April 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2014 Aha - Retrospect Client 9 is installed - I'll remove it. I don't know how it got there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajwh Posted April 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2014 OK Icon has gone. I must have had a finger malfunction when installing 9.0.0 (from the date). Thanks Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
