Error EC8F17B7: Cannot create recovery points for job

I am having this problem for the past few weeks. I have 4 drives M(9GB), N(18GB), O(15GB) and P(35GB) and have scheduled backups for all of them at different times. The backup job for P drive fails all the time with the following message

 

Error EC8F17B7: Cannot create recovery points for job: Drive Backup of Projects (P:\).
    Error E7D1001F: Unable to write to file.
        Error EBAB03F1: The requested operation could not be completed due to a file system limitation. (UMI:V-281-3215-6071)

 

I am on Windows 7 64-bit using Ghost 15 (15.0.1.36526). Backups run under my login, a standard user although the backup destination has full rights to my login. I also have setup full rights for my login in Security Configuration Tool. Backup destination is an NTFS drive on an external USB drive.

 

The backups were running fine for almost an year and all of a sudden having this problem

chkdsk ran without any errors

 

Yes, I saw the earlier post and made sure that my login has "Full Rights" to the destination drive. The only difference is that my login does not belong to Administrator group; mine is a standard user. The other backup jobs run fine without any errors

Have you tried running the job for P as an admin just as a check?  Or temporarily adding your user as an admin?

 

What's the file system for the destination drive?  What about the destination folder name? 

Are you compressing either drive?  If so, turn off compression.  Also, instead of running Checkdisk, try defragmenting the destination drive. 

 

When you see an EBAB03F1 error, the message is actually an OS error message.
