Why Veritas Sucks, part LXVII

I hate the Veritas tape backup program for a multitude of reasons. Today, I had a server not make a backup; this was the error message in the event log:

The Backup Exec Job Engine service depends on the Backup Exec Server service which failed to start because of the following error: The operation completed successfully.

It's not quite as amusing as the "An undetectable error has occurred" message I got from Windows 3.1 once, but it ranks up there.
