robek Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 I have 7 media sets defined in R8. Something I did while experimenting with settings caused one of the sets to get its options disabled. I mean that when I view the options tab for any set, I can set the grooming and catalog options. For that one set, all buttons and popups are gray and inactive. How do I get them active again? I set grooming on that set and I can't undo it. I did set grroming for two different sets, which activated grooming scripts to run yesterday. They finished and I could change one set back to no grooming but I am in a pickle with the other one. Furthermore, the backup script which uses this media does not run as scheduled anymore. On the list of scripts, for all scripts, it says, that next run is tomorrow or next day. For this one script, it says that next run is today at 3 am -- which is way past, of course, and the script did not run last night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayoff Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 Is that set currently in use? It if is in use that will cause the options to become unavailable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robek Posted March 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 I just restarted the server computer. After the restart, the retrieve snapshot script started running on this set, so having the options disabled is probably valid. Yesterday, that script ran as well (after I set the grooming) but the option pane remained disabled after it finished running and there was no other script running. I will see what happens today after snapshot retrieval is done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robek Posted March 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 I should add that the backup script did not run again as scheduled last night. Log says that retrieve snapshot finished around 11 pm and backup should run at 4 am. It seems that R8 tried to run that backup immediately after I restarted the computer, but failed: Normal backup using Web Server Backup A at 3/12/2010 3:39 PM (Execution unit 2) To Media Set Web Server Set A... - 3/12/2010 3:39:27 PM: Copying WebBackup1 on Psych W-Server > !Can't save Snapshot in Web Server Set A, error -646 ( unknown) 3/12/2010 3:49:45 PM: Comparing WebBackup1 on Psych W-Server 3/12/2010 3:50:23 PM: 1 execution errors Completed: 31883 files, 115.0 MB, with 60% compression Performance: 76.2 MB/minute (47.9 copy, 186.4 compare) Duration: 00:10:55 (00:07:54 idle/loading/preparing) This can be just a conflict with the retrieve snapshot script which started at the same time.

robek Posted March 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 Retrieve snapshot script finished after some 2 hrs and then the option panel became active. It took a few attempts for the new setting to stick, but I am back where I was earlier. Uff! The restart apparently cleared some glitch.
