Here where I work we use Symantec BackupExec 11D to handle all of our server backups. recently had an issue crop up on the weekend where the backups got hung up. Ended up restarting all of the backupExec services to unjam it. The backs now are getting written out until they hit the Microsoft Information store (Exchange 2003 on Server 2003)
This is the error in the logs:
Backup- \EXCHANGE\Microsoft Information Store\First Storage Group Error, Unable to open \EXCHANGE\Microsoft Information Store\First Storage Group because it is currently being backed up by another process.
Our vendor has suggested just restarting the entire server (in their opinion the vss service is conflicting with the backupexec) but I'm personally loath to just reboot unless I need to. Has anybody seen this type of issue or know which service might be related to this?
