?unrepairable catalog


Recommended Posts

I have one catalog file that continually reports error mid-operation. I have repaired the catalog and rebuilt it as well but I still get the following errors half way through the operation. It doesn't just happen during a grooming phase but also on simple backups. Thanks

You must recreate the Backup Set's Catalog File.
See the Retrospect User's Guide or online help for details on recreating Catalog Files.

You are not telling us what you want to do.

 

The easiest way to get rid of the problem is performing a "recycle" backup. You would, of course, lose all your backups from that media set. So if this is your only backup, you should improve your backup strategy. :)

 

This may be a large media set, so it would take too much time to recycle.

I would start by moving the file AC020666.rdb out from the media set. (I would NOT trash it.) Then recreate the catalog file (not just rebuild).

​If that fails, I would remove the files AC020639.rdb and AC020659.rdb.  (I would NOT trash them.) Then recreate the catalog file (not just rebuild).

 

If this works through a complete cycle (or two) of backups and grooming, THEN I could trash the offending files.

The source files stored in these files have by then been backed up again (provided they still exists on the source).
