Folks, Wondering if anyone has seen this issue. The first time I saw it a few months back, I ignored it as a one-time issue. But it just happened again so I am digging deeper.
This time (don't recall what the OS/client version was for the first incident) it is a Windows 2008 R2 server with BA 7.1.0.0 (yes I know - 0-releases are always problematic). OS tech noticed the backups failing and went to investigate. Trying to start the CLI - it hung. Checked the dsm.opt file and found it blank/empty? It has been backing up for a long, long time with no reason to make any changes to the dsm.opt file. AFAIK, the only thing that should be mucking with the dsm.opt file, aside from manually editing it, is replication. So, is this replication related or a client bug? Did some quick Googling without any luck on a known problem/fix. -- *Zoltan Forray* Spectrum Protect (p.k.a.
