Hi Bob

Glad you came over here :)

Probably just the file is bad, or there was an error when writing the file.  He could always try recovering again and see if happens again.  Alternatly, you could recover down to that point and then skip the next file and continue recovering (assuming that he did a file by file backup) which might give him a better idea of what happened.

 

It might be worth scanning the backup to check for validity.  He could have had a bad sector on the disk he backed up and ghost found this sector when it tried to recover.  He may be able to use the ignore bad sectors option to get around it.  Normally bad sectors will stop ghost, but options let you override certian things.

 

Hi mmench,

 

The error message you are receiving occurs when there are bad sectors. I would suggest you to run checkdisk with following command from command prompt on your drive which you are backing up:

 

chkdsk /f/r

 

--Vinod

Thanks Vinod.  I have actually tried that with the same result.  Does it make sense that I only see this error when running an incremental backup and never when running a full backup?

Are these incremental backups scheduled or manual or based on certain thresholds?

 

--Vinod

These are scheduled incrementals vs. scheduled full backups.  Other than ignore bad sectors, there are no differences.  Incrementals consistently fail (eventually - they work for a few days, then eventually fail).  Full backups work every time without fail.
