Something to worry about or not?

[Monafly]

I recently moved a disk media set to a larger drive and upon checking that it was ok, am encountering the following message:

 

 

Executing Verify at 7/16/15 11:03:32 AM (Activity Thread 1)

To Backup Set xxxx...

!Media Set format inconsistency (5 at 73022472)

 

 

I've done the verify twice with the exact same result and it's the same after running Disk Utility (no errors or problems) and another verify. This is the only entry in the log after the verify of this roughly 2TB disk media set.

 

 

Is this something to worry about, or just a glitch of some kind?

 

 

Thanks.

Do you really mean "moved" or did you actually "copy" the media set?

In other words: Can you verify the original and do you get the same error?

I moved it. The original is no longer available.

 

I looked quickly in the manual and didn't find how to do this properly (what is the right way?). What I did was a finder copy to the new disk and then had RS locate it in it's new home. After confirming that RS was happy with the new location, I deleted (probably foolishly in retrospect) the original, as I needed the disk space for another growing media set on the original disk.

I'm pretty sure your problem has nothing to do with the move of the files in Finder.

 

There may be one file you can't restore, at least not that particular version. I think Retrospect will back it up again when you backup the same source again, so at least you should be able to restore a later version.

Unfortunately, Retrospect does give any clue about which source and which file.
