Hello Comunity,
Though I am retired, I help now and then in Companies and I have a smal Network at home.
Here I use B&R actual Version 12.3 and actual Patched on a Win 11 Maschine with a Quantum Tape Library for Backup-Storage. My network Storage-System is a QNAP-NAS. I have created a Tape-job to save my Data (approx. 5TB) on tape which runs once a week. I created a User on the QNAP only for Bacing up and it works quite fine for over a year now.
Because the comunity edition runs well with tape jobs I was glad with this low-cost solution.
For a few days, I restructured my Data. I made new file shares and tried to gave some structure in the system. After reconfiguring the jobs, everything seemed to be fine.
Then I added two file-shares (approx. 1 TB) and the problems started:
First: I tried an external Harddisk connected to the QNAP. The file-share can be used in the network without problems. But when I try to use tis share whith a Tape-job it quits with this message:
24.08.2025 20:21:20 :: License issue for \\192.168.xxx.yyy\Share1: Unable to process the workload: your license has been exceeded
I transfered the Data on an internal Fileshare, changed the tape-job and the Message keeps on coming:
24.08.2025 20:43:32 :: License issue for \\192.168.xxx.yyy\Share2: Unable to process the workload: your license has been exceeded
Then I tried to save single Directories in this share, some are accepted, but some are not accepted.
So I made a new Tape-job with only a directory which was accepted, to test the job, it did work. Then I changed the directory to one of those that did not work. It did not work in the smaller job.
I checked the User-Permissions on the QNAP, the Backup-User does have all rights, so the problem seems to be in B&R. I do not understand, that in one fileshare, with 11 directories, 7 van be saved, and 4 cannot be saved because of an “exceeded licence”.
Can sombody give me a hint where to start solving this problem?
Thanks in advance
