[Veritas-bu] exchange backups fail status 112
I'm running Netbackup 7.1.0.4 on a windows 2008R2 master and media servers. I recently created 4 new policies to back up our 28 exchange databases, each policy has 7 databases. Last night policies 1 and 3 ran without any issues, however policies 2 and 4 both failed with a status 112 (no files specified in the file list(112). I can copy these databases out of policy 2 and 4 into a manual policy that I use for one off backups and these databases run without any issues. Does anyone know how to correct the status 112 errors?

[Veritas-bu] orphaned job
I have a windows 2008 R2 master server running Netbackup 7.1.01. I have 1 job in the console that shows a status 50 (client process aborted), however the job state is waiting for retry. I tried cancelling the job and it never dies. I've rebooted the master a number of times and the job is still there. Anyone have any ideas?

Should I just put the /netbackup/db/images on the San lun and leave everything else on Local disk, or should I install everything on the SAN.
