Overall, I need to be able to run backup jobs which are already in place, but are failing whenever run, see my last thread: http://www.reddit.com/r/techsupport/comments/1edqsx/ive_been_asked_to_backup_windows_servers_using/[1]
Today, I've been trying to clean the tape drive using a cleaning cartridge which we bought. I inserted the tape, imported it, and marked it as the cleaning slot within backup exec. Now, however, I'm running into new problems I haven't encountered. First of all, when I try to perform a clean job within Backup Exec, the job starts and makes it to 17%, at which point it returns to 10 percent . It just does this cycle over and over again, never getting above 17%. Next, I tried inventorying the tape library. I run the job and it begins, but always freezes indefinitely at 30%. Does anybody have an idea what might be happening, and what I might do to get it working properly?
