ross h Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 Hi, i'm using Retrospect 8.1 (build 150) on an Xserve(2.26 GHz Quad Core Intel Xeon), with a LSI SAS card (LSISAS3442E-R) and a Quantum LTO-4 Half height Tape Drive. I can't get the backups working correctly. Using the assistant i select the source & backup set, and follow to backup now. The action then animates and moves to the activities window. But thats it. No backup actually occurs. Is there something i'm missing here? I can see the LTO-4 and inserted Tape in the devices. Incidently the first time i tried this the above action erased the tape but still didn't backup. I'd be grateful for any advice. I havent used the LSI card with a LTO-4 before this setup. Any ideas? Thanks Ross Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayoff Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 Have you tried stopping and starting the Retrospect engine again? Can you do backups to a disk media set or does that fail also? Is the Engine and console installed on the same computer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ross h Posted August 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Hi Robin In true fashion stopping and starting the engine sorted it. The engine and console are installed on the same machine. The system is working correctly now. I did have some issues using the assitant but creating a script worked. Thanks for the help.
