Cannot apply File Permission to "\\Network_Path\Directory_Path\File"

Servosity Pro: All
OS: Windows

When performing a local copy backup to a network path, the following warning message is received in the backup report:

Backup Logs  No.  Type  Timestamp  Backup Logs 1 Info YYYY/MM/DD hh:mm Start [ Windows platform (Test), Servosity Pro 5.x.x.x ] 2 Info YYYY/MM/DD hh:mm Start running pre-commands 3 ...  ...  ... *  Warn YYYY/MM/DD hh:mm Cannot apply File Permission to "\\Network_Path\Directory_Path\File"

The message suggests that the permission setting of the corresponding file cannot be applied to the network drive. A possible cause of the issue can be, that the permission setting of the local drive is different from the network drive.

For example, a user that exist locally may not exist on the network drive.

To resolve the issue, for the affected backup set(s), please disable the "Retain permissions on files that are copied" option in the local copy setting. Alternatively, you can also change the "Copy to" directory to a folder residing locally.
