The earlier problem with "Loading Media" appears to be a false alarm - while the CASO server (the one which is supposed to mean we can manage things centrally without needing to constantly login to all the other boxes) swears blind the job status is "Loading Media", logging onto the actual media server reveals it's working away backing up quite happily.

"Loading Media"...
Fantastic news, it's not even 11am yet, but we've got more trusty errors to keep us busy.
Right now we've got the famous "Loading Media" nonsense. 3 jobs being backed up to 3 different "Backup Folder's" (you know, tapeless, medialess stuff) now sitting at Loading Media. No alerts naturally, no reason for them to do this, but they've all stopped and will undoubtedly now sit there forever not backing up.
