Wierd NTFS error, and AAd.rdb error

Recommended Posts

Two wierd errors. One about an error report about NTFS file system, the other about an AAd.rdb error discussed in earlier threads.

 

I have two media sets, A on one disk and B on another disk, rotating offsite. Single-user configuration on a MacBookPro 4,1, Retro 8.2, 1.6.4. Media set A had been fine until the errors that seemed to be about corruption appeared, below.

 

Note how even the log seems corrupt; horrible spelling. Bad spelling did not exist at the beginning of the log months ago.

 

Here's the first error about what seems to be corruption. The computer was on the whole time, did not go to sleep during the activity (I checked the system log), and the USB drive was solidly connected.

Here’s a weird error. An error about NTFS file system. No volumes formatted in NTFS on my configuration.

Here's the AAd.rdb error. I’d had enough errors that seemed to be about corruption that I tried a catalog rebuild, and got the AAd.rdb error during the rebuild.

After AfCAfAfog rebuild, only the most recent bAfkups for eAfh source Afe stored in the CAfAfog.

 

Older backups cac be acded by going to the MediacSets' view Backups tac acd clicking Retrieve.

I've since given up on the A media set and recycled it. Before I recycled it, I noticed that I had over-written a Word document and needed to retrieve the document from a date before it had been over-written, and Retro 8 rapidly found all previous versions of the file, and correctly recovered the one I wanted. Then I recycled the media set.

 

Why the AAd.rdb error, I don't know. Why the NTFS error report, I don't know. I do know that any file on any application, on any machine, on any platform can become corrupt, Retrospect no exception. Any ideas if this error were to corruption of the backup data files, or due to .dat or .bak file corruption?

 

BTW, I wish that the log would screen-wrap long lines of error reports, even with my monitor being 1440 pixels wide. Pain to side-scroll.

 

Ideas?

While this is probably not necessarily the solution, I searched the forums for what I remembered about somebody else having an "AAd.rdb" error and this turned out to be something they needed to modify in their smb.conf file for their NAS device.

 

You say you have a "USB drive" as the drive storing your media sets? What kind of drive and how is it formatted?

Dear Smaser:

-the "USB drive" is a single external pocket 1TB drive connected by USB 2, formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled). The only thing that's NTFS is my VMWare Fusion machine, which is closed, Fusion not running.

-There have been previous threads about the AAd.rdb error, with no seeming solution to them.

-Thanks for your response. Hope this helps.
