2003 SBS Server Standard.
Athlon 64 5400 CPU
1 GB DDR2 800 Mhz RAM
Promise SATA Raid Controller w 2 500GB disks.
Adaptec 39160 32/64bit SCSI card.
Dell (Quantum) Powervault 100T external tape drive.
Drive works perfectly on 2 Windows 2000 Server machines (5 GB backups,
resoted and compared), yet connected to the 2003 SBS server I get cannot
write to Tape errors, tape does not actually save data errors and midway
through a backup, an error kicks up showing the source disk ( hard drive )
halted a file access based on failed security , even though the security has
been granted to the files for both backup operators and the administrator
account that is running the backup.
All drivers have been updated, service pack 2 has been reapplied and small
backups sometimes work fine once the tape is accepted into the free pool.
With a 1GB SYS install you're hitting the page/swap file almost all the
time, so your RAID is doing overtime and I suspect that you're having
I/O Problems as the cause.
If the drive AND tapes work on another machine then it's your very under
powered SBS server that is the problem.
Borrow 3GB some place and install it as a test.
