WhS999 Posted March 30, 2003 Report Share Posted March 30, 2003 What is a Backup Set Format Inconsistency (10 at NNNNNN) or (5 at NNNNNNN) msg in the log window. N,,NNN refers to six digit or seven digit number such as 652155. The message occurs when verifying a backup set. To help myself, I searched the knowledgebase for the word inconsistency and got NADA. Using retrospect 6.0.206, retrospect driver update 3.4.106, LITE-ON CD-RW-RDI, windows 98se The actual drive is a one which Dantz claimed was supported, but never worked--LITE ON 24102 non-compaq version, I forget, but AMYC and I did a whole thread on it and it was never resolved. Nonetheless, by not using native support on this drive and using Retrospect to treat it generically with the retrospect CDRW utility, I was able to get past the error 102's and error 100's and actually do a backup.

FuzzyJohn Posted April 2, 2003 Report Share Posted April 2, 2003 I am interested to find out about this "Backup set format inconsistency" message too. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayoff Posted April 2, 2003 Report Share Posted April 2, 2003 This is basically the same as a data offset, resource offset or bad backup set header error. The data on the tape is not identical to the data on the hard disk, basically meaning the tape contains corrupted data. This is usually a device communication problem, but sometimes a file in use during backup. The following document may provide some troubleshooting help. http://www.dantz.com/index.php3?SCREEN=kbase&ACTION=KBASE&id=26499 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
