What should I do if I cannot connect?
If you cannot connect to a Backup Exec server, try the following solutions:
Ensure that the credentials are correct.
Ensure that the network adapters are configured properly.
Ensure that network drivers are loaded for the network controllers.
Ensure that the Windows firewall exception list on the Backup Exec server includes the File and Printer Sharing and Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) features.
Ensure that you can successfully ping the Backup Exec server.
If you restore point-in-time backups from a Central Admin Server feature environment, consider the following:
If you connect to a central administration server, you can restore only to the latest point-in-time backup.
Note:
There may be many point-in-time backups on multiple managed Backup Exec servers for the computer you want to recover.
If you connect to a managed Backup Exec server, only the point-in-time backups that reside on that managed Backup Exec server can be restored.
If the Backup Exec server belongs to a workgroup, then you do not need to enter the domain name.
