We're using multiple Xserves that all back up just fine with Retrospect 6 using a RETROSPECT APPROVED HP Tape Backup device. The comment below just isn't true... should work fine with an approved SCSI Card and Backup Device... go to the Dantz website for the lists.
Nonsense.. Works Fine with Xserves/SCSI - roobieroo
Right. That explains why this is still posted on the Dantz support site and there STILL has not been any fix. Screw Dantz.TITLE: Mac OS X Server Restart or Crash during tape backup
Discussion:
Dantz, along with several other software and hardware companies, have been actively investigating Mac OS X Server backup problems reported by customers in the field. The core issue reported is that after a certain period of backup to SCSI-attached tape, the server (most often an Xserve) becomes unresponsive or is restarted by the watchdog utility. Dantz and the other companies involved are working together to find the root cause of--and a solution to--this problem. If you are using an ATTO SCSI card on Mac OS 10.3, Dantz recommends using the latest card drivers from ATTO. To be notified when additional information is available, Dantz recommends that affected customers sign up for the the notify list below.
