Overall, I need to be able to run backup jobs which are already in place, but are failing whenever run, see my last thread: http://www.reddit.com/r/techsupport/comments/1edqsx/ive_been_asked_to_backup_windows_servers_using/[1]
Today, I've been trying to clean the tape drive using a cleaning cartridge which we bought. I inserted the tape, imported it, and marked it as the cleaning slot within backup exec.
Now, however, I'm running into new problems I haven't encountered. First of all, when I try to perform a clean job within Backup Exec, the job starts and makes it to 17%, at which point it returns to 10 percent . It just does this cycle over and over again, never getting above 17%.
Next, I tried inventorying the tape library. I run the job and it begins, but always freezes indefinitely at 30%.
Does anybody have an idea what might be happening, and what I might do to get it working properly?
Verify that the firmware on the hardware is up to date. Also be sure that you are using Symantec drivers on the tape drives. You can do this by running the Tapeinst.exe command.

I want to test some Ransomware. Therefore I wanna use VMware and create a virtual machine, where I can execute this software. I already deleted the Network device, so that no connection is possible between my computer and the VM. Do I need to know something more about it. Could it be possible that the virus breaks out and affects my PC?
Make sure that you are not playing around with Cerber 6 Ransomware because it has Anti-VM features that can easily bluff you when you are on the test. I just got to know the same from this post:http://ransomwares.net/cerber-6-ransomware/. I request you to read this post to know more about Cerber's new Anti-VM & Anti-Sandboxing features which makes it dangerous than never before!
Be sure to disable all shared folders. Also disable any CPU virtualisation acceleration, then you should be fine.

In my application some time the SQL active connections were increasing abruptly. During the period we can't access the database from Management studio itself.
This problem occurs every 1 hour or 2 hours once and it stands for 20 minutes. I have checked the CPU utilization and RAM utilization, during the period no CPU resources were used. Once the problem resolved all the connections are released and the system start using the CPU resources after that only.
What I need to check for this problem? There is no additional process / program accessing the database during the period.
If you run SQL Server Profiler, to see the sql calls being made, which may give you a clue to the cause?

Hi there Ladies and Gents
I am asking this question because this weekend ahas seen me go from a fully haired man to a bold man in let them 24 hours. Google found malware on three site we are running on a shared server. All the files are HTML or Java. I have done some research and this Malware software put a load of numbers and letters at the bottom of the HTML pages. So, I have cleaned the files off the server, and replaced them with clean files from our own hard drives. But within a few minutes the files are infected again. Then looking at the file, there are no bits of code. So when I go back to firefox and look again, after clearing the cache the same thing happens again, the red screen! I am just wondering if, there could be a infection on the shared server and it could be infecting more than just our three website?
Sorry it's long winded - No sleep for 48 hours sorting this out and rebuilding the sites on another server we trust.
Kind regards to all who read this message.
John
Yes. it is possible for malware to infect a whole server.

I always feel guilty when I end a process in the task manager, thinking to myself that if there was a microsoft developer behind me he'd probably say 'if you only knew what you're doing..' . So, is it that bad to kill processes or actually it's something that don't have relevant collateral damages at all? Thanks!
It depends on what you're killing, really.
If that process has created some temp files, they aren't going to get cleaned up. If the process was in the middle of writing to a file, the file will be incomplete.
I wouldn't worry about the side effects from killing a frozen notepad.exe. But if it is something like VMWare Workstation, then yes, I would worry because my VM might be corrupted.
I'd have to second the answer of 'it depends'. A large percentage of programs out there won't cost you much more than whatever you were doing at the time of the kill. With that said, there are other programs that could suffer significant damage depending on when you kill it. It all depends on what the application is doing, what kind of temp/state/etc files/data it's using at the time, etc.
With all that said, I wouldn't think 'death by task manager' would be all that common of an activity. Sure there are programs that go south off and on, but I'm rarely pushed to having to kill a process of with that kind of force...

On the production server when xp_readerrorlog cmd is run the size will show approx 500000 daily i have to recycle error logs the errorlogs contains messages of all the successful login and not successfull login details. i need both the information please suggest what i can do.
If you're capturing every single login and failed login into your error log along with all the other stuff that gets written to the error log, then your error log is just going to grow and there's nothing you can do about that.
If you need to capture logins and you're using SQL Server 2008 or better, I'd suggest taking a look at Extended Events. This will output to a different file, which you'll still have to manage, but it won't be filling up your error logs.
For 2005 & earlier you can do similar work with a server-side trace, but it's not as efficient as extended events. Here's an article on how to set up a server-side trace from Gail Shaw.
