xmarksthespot Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 Anyone else seeing Retrospect 7.7.325 on a 64 bit Win7 backing up huge drive, 600+GB, choke when it gets to 508.3 GB?? Happens in recycle BU and Duplication as well. Could this be a catalog size issue? Or have I missed something real simple? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayoff Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 Duplicates do not have catalog files, so that answers your question about catalog size. Something is happening when Retrospect is reading the original data from the disk. Have you run any disk checks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsandford Posted July 28, 2010 Report Share Posted July 28, 2010 Couple of questions. When the backup chokes, is it always at the same point, or perhaps the same file? Also do you have sufficient temp on the source and free space on the destination drives Thanks, Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xmarksthespot Posted July 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2010 Seems to die at the same spot. not sure if it's the same file. Check disk finds no errors on source. Also source is an Intel RST Raid. Been using Retrospect since dinosaurs roamed the earth. It has saved my butt many, many times. This is the first weird behavior I've seen from it. Interesting thing is if I do a recycle BU and it dies at 508.3GB the BU that is created is usable. By that I mean if I do another regular backup after the recycle it will pick up where it left off and finish error free. The BU that is created seems to work fine for restores. There is a ton of free space on destination (3 TB raid) and also on the source (1.5 TB Raid less than half full). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
