The message suggests that the corresponding file, folder, or edition container cannot be found.
The problem will usually occur whenServosityPro/ServosityStandard attempts to perform backup on system directories such as .Trashes, /dev. This error could also occur, if the .obm / .acb directory is selected in the backup source.
To resolve the issue, please consider performing the backup job with ServosityPro/ServosityStandard scheduler (which run as root).
You can also resolve the issue by running the backup application with root permission. To run ServosityPro/ServosityStandard with root permission, please entering the following command:
Example:
>sudo sh RunOBC.sh
To perform a Seed Load backup on the affected backup source, please enter the following command:
Example:
>sudo sh RunOBC.sh
Alternatively, please exclude all system directories from the backup set. To view all hidden/system files on a Mac machine, please follow the instructions below:
1. Open a Terminal
2. Enter the command:
Example:
>defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE
>killall Finder
The /dev directory is a placeholder for system devices, such as disk drives, output devices, and communications devices. The list of devices in this directory is created each time the computer is booted up and when new hardware is added. Thus, it is unnecessary to perform backup on this directory.
