Ok, here's what happens. I have a 4.1 server running on a pentium 133, with 32 megs of ram, Adaptec 2940 controller, Quantum 1 meg drive, conner tape unit, plextor 4.5 cdrom. I am using BackupExec 7.01a (I know 7.01b is out, but don't want to confuse things). If I ask for a tape backup in the night, then the next morning the server will lock up sometime in the early morning, around 9 am or so. If I power it down (which is the only way to talk to it), and leave it off for 10 to 15 minutes, it will come back up and stay up for days, until I run another tape backup. If I don't leave it off for more than a minute, it will go down again. Has been known to go down as many as 8 times, or as few as one. I have added ram, changed the hard drive, the cdrom, the tape unit. All to no avail. What is happening? As far as I can tell, there are no warning messages, just a locked unit. Help??
