Good morning,
I am running into an issue with an SBS 2003 box, where I cannot restore the System State. It is SBS 2003, with all of the latest patches with BE 2012 Build 1798.
Notes:
- Single server envronment
- I have been running successful backups to an ISCSI NAS connected as a local Drive. We do not have a SDR.
- Recently the domain has become corrupted on the server. I can boot the server, but it thinks it has a different computer name, we will call that name "Confused".
- The ISCSI services are failing as well, where I cannot connect to the NAS from the server. I can successfully connect and access the backup files on another workstation, and share the files.
- All other data is intact. I only need System State.
Tasks completed:
- Create new storage device, and point it to the share on the workstation \\path\veritas\b2d. Inventory is successful, Catalogs fails with errors that the media is not in the index, even after a successful inventory. The backup sets do populate and I can run a catalog on the individual sets.
- On the Backup\Restore tab "Servers" I have two servers listed, the correct server name, and the "Confused" server name, both of which are the same server.
- If I try to run a System state restore from the "correct" server name, I am prompted for storage to restore From, but I only have the Device that is offline, not the new device. (That is pointing to the new drive share with all of the backup files). If I try from the "Confused" server name, the restore options are blank and I cannot proceed.
- I have added a local admin account to backup exec and started all services with that account. That account also has full access to the share I created and I can access the data from Windows with that login account.
Questions:
- How do I get the "Correct" server in Backup and Restore tab to see the new data store so I can access the backups?
- How can I get "Confused""Backup and Restore" server to be able to restore (Blank page)?
