PowerProtect Data Manager 19.9 Network Attached Storage User Guide

Backup troubleshooting

The following sections provide guidance for troubleshooting backup issues:

After you perform an asset-level restore operation, perform a full backup of the asset to maintain backup consistency.

Unable to move backups to protection storage

Verify that there is sufficient free space on the protection storage system.

Unable to discover assets

If the first discovery succeeds and later discoveries fail, verify whether the asset credentials have changed. Update the credentials in PowerProtect Data Manager accordingly.

Consecutive incremental backups fail

Perform a manual full backup of the NAS asset. The PowerProtect Data Manager Administration and User Guide provides instructions.

Unable to back up share assets

Verify that the share address and path are valid and mountable. Adding a share does not verify that the share can be backed up.
