We made a couple of changes to our environment. We upgraded our Master and Media servers to 7.0.1 Added in several new servers, all dual Quad core procs with 48gb of RAM, all Linux RH ES 5.x All of the new Media servers are connected to our 10gb network with Cisco Nexus backend Master still on the 1gb network 2 older media servers (1 HP-UX) still on the 1gb network
The conditions that seem to trigger the 24s are when clients are being backed up to a 10gb media server, however when backing up to our older servers the errors does not occur. We also see it a lot more frequently on our Exchange backups than normal system backups, however our large file servers will occasionally have these errors when on the 10gb media servers.

If so there may have been a change that caused this. There have been technote resolutions that resulted patch updates see example yes just example below. There are other resolutions when you search "status code 24" on the support site. If there were changes in your environment and you've recently done some tuning parameter changes see forum resolution below, memory fully utilized. I've seen this one on many occasions after tuning and deploying the settings in production. http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH127930&actp=search&viewlocale=en_US&searchid=1301307283788 http://www.symantec.com/connect/forums/backup-ends-status-code-24 Sent from my mobile On Mar 27, 2011, at 5:11 PM, "Alley, Chris" <cal...@kforce.com> wrote: > I have been getting a bunch of 24 errors as well.
