The following limitations apply when running backup jobs:
When you have finished editing the tapesvr.cfg file,
run astop to stop all SCO ARCserve/Open
processes then run astart to restart the server.
Failed to Access Source Directory
error in the activity log.
If, as is set by default, you do not want to back up NFS filesystems, you can safely ignore these error messages -- your backup jobs are complete. If, however, you want to include the NFS filesystems in your backup job, you will need to rerun the operation.
The workaround to this problem is to remove one of the tapes with the same name from the SCO ARCserve/Open database.
To avoid this, either make sure that all CD-ROMs are unmounted before starting a backup, or do not select the CD-ROM mount point(s) for backup.
