Active full after failed backup due to insufficient disk space?

Post by Vorap »

Hello.

I had some backups fail this weekend due to insufficient disk space. And now I'm wondering if these fails have messed up the backup chain, so I'll have to do a new active full backup to reset the backup chain, or if I'm okay with just another incremental backup.

I am running Veeam B&R Version 9.5 U4

Thanks in advance!

I am using a cloud connect provider, and the error message I've recieved is "Processing <VM Name> Error: Cloud repository quota has been exceeded." I've extended my quota by 2 TB now.

It ran out of space when doing a one-off active full. Otherwise I'm doing Incremental backups daily and I make synthetic full backups weekly.

Do I need to schedule an Active Full backup for the upcoming backup, or is it fine with an incremental?

Thanks

What is the last restore point in the backup chain (Backups node)? What status does it have? OK or Incomplete/Corrupted? Try to re-run the job, the next job run should fix the incomplete restore point. Thanks!

I re-ran the job and it fixed it by itself. The last restore point was from the previous day which had the status: OK.

Thanks!
