Well as far as the backup script, the first thing I would suspect is a permissions issue. If NetVault is the utility that is running the start script after backup, then the script is running as either a NetVault user (this I do not know) or the system. You may try setting the SUID bit on the script to run as root if you haven't already. On the SCSI card issue, I'm afraid I cant help ya there. I've never seen this problem before, but if it works once, then subsequently fails, I would try to verify the backup to ensure that is is even working correctly the first time. There may be a problem with the SCSI card module?
