Good Day
Please can someone help. I am having problems with Microsoft windows writers they are timing out with the result the Symantec Backup fails to run.
I have done the following rebooted the server wrtiters still timed out
Ran Chkdsk /F
Rebooted the server a second time and all writers where fine, the backup ran for app 30 hours and failed once again the writers timed out, the fix that Microsoft has is a beta version 355956_intl_x64_zip and I cannot run it on a production server, please help.
