BackupExec - Event viewer errors

[Edu-IT]

Anyone got any ideas on this? I've tried the Symantec support articles but to no success.

Backup jobs are failing, common errors seem to be:

An error occurred while processing a B2D command.
Changer: MoveMedium() Attempt to Lock Slot Failed (T:\VERITAS\B2D\Folder.lck). Error=3

An error occurred while processing a B2D command.
Changer: SetUpProperties() GetDiskFreeSpace failed (T:\VERITAS\B2D\). Error=87

An error occurred while processing a B2D command.
Changer: MoveMedium() Attempt to Mount Non-Empty Drive (B2DDrv1.1). Error=1

An error occurred while processing a B2D command.
Changer: LockAndRefreshChangerConfig() Unable to Lock Changer.cfg (T:\VERITAS\B2D\Changer.cfg). Error=87

@Edu-IT:

Found this: Enterprise Support - Symantec Corp. - Backups fail with the error "An error occurred while processing a B2D command. Changer: MoveMedium() Attempt to Lock Slot Failed (X:\VERITAS\B2D\Folder.lck). Error=3" in the Microsoft Windows Application Log

Hope this is of help

Cross your fingers for me! Just tried that again.

Seems it could be something to do with either your SCSI device (Adapter Card) or corrupted drivers or in this case as he has stated unistall of BE on the server and re-install without using any updates from Symantec.

Which version of BE you using BTW?

The device, \Device\Harddisk0, has a bad block.

Sounds like perhaps the drive is at fault!
